Konami Gaming, Inc. announced that its award-winning SYNKROS® casino management system has successfully launched slot machine cleaning and customer care solutions at seven different casino locations since first released in June. In a matter of weeks, the company developed, tested, and deployed a system-delivered solution to help optimize slot machine cleaning between use, and offered it at no cost to SYNKROS customers. It is part of Konami’s on-going efforts to deliver meaningful support to the health, safety, and recovery initiatives of gaming industry operators. SYNKROS’ solutions include a mix of real-time communications, alerts, and report analytics, designed to empower casino floor staff and supervising teams to monitor and manage slot machine disinfecting between use.

“In the midst of business closures that occurred beginning in March, Konami’s SYNKROS team began planning, producing, and packaging a set of solutions to assist our users to monitor and manage when slot machines need disinfecting between customer use. The solutions were seamless built into the existing SYNKROS ecosystem,” said Tom Soukup, senior vice president & chief systems product officer at Konami Gaming, Inc. “Working closely with our casino customers, we responded quickly to their needs, and equipped their teams with the necessary customization options and training for them to automatically communicate slot machine cleaning statuses to their casino guests.”

Early adopters of SYNKROS’ slot machine cleaning and customer care solutions span locations from California to the Caribbean. To date, seven casinos representing six different jurisdictions have successfully leveraged the technology to streamline slot machine cleaning and customer care.

SYNKROS’ slot machine cleaning and customer care solutions allow players to request slot machine cleaning from the player tracking LCD display, which triggers email, SMS text, or administrative alerts to cleaning crew members. After a player has finished their play session, the machine will switch to automated “Waiting to be Sanitized” message. Once a cleaning crew member has completed cleaning, the machine will switch to automated “This machine has been sanitized” message, with a time stamp identifying when the last cleaning occurred. And throughout this entire process, casino administrators have access to visual floor monitoring of machine cleaning status and cleaning patterns, to gauge effectiveness and manage staffing.

LAS VEGAS (August 13, 2020) – Aristocrat Technologies’ Buffalo™ franchise is one of the most successful in slot history. Now Aristocrat’s all-new Buffalo Chief™ is thundering into Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood for a world premiere that will have players yelling, “Buffaloooooooooooooooo!”

“Buffalo Chief is the latest creation from Aristocrat’s game designers, and we are absolutely thrilled with this game. Players all over the world know and love Buffalo, and with Buffalo Chief, the experience and the excitement are better than ever,” said Jon Hanlin, senior vice president of commercial strategy and business analytics. “Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casinos have been outstanding partners for Aristocrat, and we are delighted to have Buffalo Chief makes its world premiere at Hollywood.”

Buffalo Chief is an entirely new gaming experience with even bigger stacks and more ways to win – 3,456 in the base game alone. A Supercoin chase leads to adding up to 250 buffalo symbols during free games, and a mystery Gigantic Stampede feature with 16,000 ways to win with a guaranteed 5-of-a-kind Buffalo is aimed to excite Buffalo players. Adding to the fun is a single-site progressive that resets at $10,000. Buffalo Chief appears exclusively on Aristocrat’s Helix XT™ cabinet.

This is the second major Aristocrat product to launch at a Seminole Hard Rock property recently. Last month, Aristocrat’s new Cash Express Luxury Line™ made its world premiere at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa.

LAS VEGAS, Aug. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reflecting the gaming industry’s increased focus on contactless and cashless solutions to facilitate player choice in funding options, Everi Holdings Inc. (NYSE: EVRI) (“Everi” or the “Company”), a gaming industry leader for cash access player funding, highlights its current in-market solutions and its roadmap for near- and mid-term cashless product implementations. Everi’s cashless/contactless solutions, which include products that are already live in casinos and CashClub Wallet®, the Company’s fully cashless integrated mobile solution that is expected to be live in the first casinos in the fourth quarter of 2020, collectively demonstrate the Company’s positioning as an industry innovator and leader for both cash and cashless funding solutions to address the unique needs of the highly regulated gaming industry.

“For almost two decades, our cash access solutions have been at the forefront of innovative player funding technology across the gaming industry,” said Chief Executive Officer Michael Rumbolz. “In 2019, we facilitated more than 115 million transactions that delivered $30 billion of cash to casino floors and generated $165 million in revenue for Everi. We have a large base of casinos and other facilities using our fully integrated FinTech network today, as well as our portfolio of compliance services and loyalty products. We stand ready to leverage the strengths of our current product suite, already live on casino floors, with our deep development pipeline of products and services to enhance our status as provider of choice in the gaming industry well into the future. Our focused innovation and breadth of integrated capabilities enables us to provide casino patrons with a seamless transition to our cashless alternatives, positioning us to meet players’ and casino operators’ preferences, whether players want to select cash or a cashless funding solution.

“In the near-term, we expect players’ choice for funding on the casino floor will continue to favor existing cash access solutions, such as ATM withdrawals or cash advances. Going forward, and over time, adoption of cashless and contactless funding solutions will grow, allowing players the ability to move value across gaming and non-gaming venues within our customers’ land-based operations, but also into and out of a casino’s online and sports wagering offerings, and finally back to the patrons’ checking, credit and debit accounts. These bi-directional funding solutions are the hallmark of Everi’s CashClub Wallet ecosystem. Players will have the opportunity to transfer funds into and out of their wallet from the comfort of their own home before arriving at their favorite casino. This will create additional opportunities for new incremental transactions and provide tremendous value for patrons,” added Rumbolz. “By providing cashless options for players, we are creating new revenue opportunities for our customers and Everi. With our superior solutions for cash and cashless funding access, combined with our money transmitter capabilities and our integration with third-party, cashless wagering systems, we’re strategically positioned to provide seamless, cost-efficient back-of-the-house functionality to solve the unique regulatory needs of casino operators – creating a fully integrated, multi-jurisdictional, on premise and online, cashless financial- and loyalty-based ecosystem that will provide compelling value for both casino operators and players.”

Everi’s extensive, integrated FinTech and Loyalty product lines, including anti-money laundering (“AML”) and other compliance services necessary in the regulated gaming industry, provide unified and cost-efficient benefits on the casino floor - both front- and back-of-house - enabling card-based and mobile scenarios, while remaining agnostic to third-party integrations. This one-source, bi-directional functionality of the integrated CashClub Wallet makes it a convenient and cost-effective solution for casino and resort operators who desire 360-degree visibility and compatibility across their “On Premise and Online” player amenities. Everi’s integrated offering of cash and cashless options, together with their full suite of integrated products and services, provides operators with a seamless and low-cost transition for their patrons who switch from cash to cashless.

“Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the interest from our casino customers for cashless and contactless player funding technologies has greatly accelerated,” said Darren Simmons, Executive Vice President and FinTech Business Leader. “As players and casinos seek options that lessen interactions with casino employees and reduce handling of cash, we provide technology and solutions that are safer and support social distancing measures to protect players and employees. We have the opportunity now to reconcile the unique needs of the funding environment inside casinos with the quickly-evolving financial and payment environment outside the casino.”

“We’ve been innovating in this area for more than 15 years, including with our present-day self-service, cashless, gaming voucher platform,” added Simmons. “Everi is addressing casinos’ demand for immediate options today, while also developing the products that can establish a foundation to lead the industry in its embrace of true mobile cashless gaming technology in the future.”

Everi’s Cashless and Contactless Products

Each of the solutions highlighted below offer a convenient supplemental alternative to dispensing cash on the casino floor, while preserving value for operators and continuing to support a player’s choice of cash. Enabled by the Everi CashClub Wallet solution, players have for the first time the ability to move funding transactions bi-directionally: from gaming on the casino floor to a casino’s online offerings, such as sports betting and online gaming and back again, while also moving funds into the casino and depositing funds back into the wallet upon the conclusion of their casino experience. The hallmark of the Everi CashClub Wallet solution is its ability to move funds into, across and out of casinos without the need for handling of cash. This expanded capability provides seamless funds movement for the casino patron, while offering potential new transaction types to drive increased revenue for casino operators and Everi based on the flow of funds: whether to purchase a gaming voucher, fund a mobile wallet, or deposit funds back to the player’s bank account. Each solution helps lower operators’ costs by reducing cash handling, cashier cage lines, and kiosk maintenance expense by lowering the total load on the kiosk cash dispenser.

According to the American Gaming Association (AGA), 77% of casual casino visitors (gambled less than 9 times in the last year) and 88% of avid casino visitors (gambled 10+ times in the last year) reported an awareness of available responsible gaming resources. 

While most guests practice responsible gaming habits, it is also the duty of the casino to equip patrons with resources that help minimize potentially harmful or excessive gambling activity. These resources can include, but are not limited to, enforcing the casino industry code of conduct, options for players to set time or money limits on machines, voluntary exclusion, brochures that provide the odds for casino games and a toll-free help line.

With Global Payments Gaming Solutions’ VIP Financial Center, casinos can ensure a safer, more secure and responsible gaming experience for patrons. The high-performance solution leverages the latest technology to provide enhanced responsible gaming measures, including configurable spending limits, preset “cooling off” periods, self-exclusion and more.

Patrons can responsibly enjoy the freedom of digital ticketing, easily pair mobile devices to any slot or table game, reload funds from their phone, and retrieve winnings once playing is complete.

The suite of full-service solutions offers additional layers of consumer protection while fitting within existing gaming regulations and operating under the casino’s existing technology infrastructure. Delivering a single source for self-service ticket redemption, cash access and cashless gaming capabilities, Global Payments Gaming Solutions’ VIP Financial Center and VIP Mobility are designed to successfully enhance the player experience and encourage responsible gaming.

As mentioned in our previous blog, the American Gaming Association shared its new principles outlining the modernization of payments on the casino floor to provide structure around the industry’s regulations of digital payments. According to the AGA, these principles have “come at a time when the majority (57%) of past-year casino visitors report the option for digital or contactless payments on the casino floor is important to them” due to COVID-19.

In light of the pandemic, consumers may be hesitant to use traditional forms of wagering, like cash. To make patrons feel more comfortable, resorts and casinos should take proactive measures to offer safer payment options on the floor. While cashless gaming not only provides convenience and flexibility, it also promotes a safer gaming environment during a period of social distancing.

As a trusted provider leading the modernization of cashless gaming environments, Global Payments Gaming Solutions’ VIP Mobility is the industry’s first mobile solution that enables true cashless casino gaming. Already being used successfully on the casino floor, VIP Mobility allows patrons to enjoy a seamless player experience from funding through cash-out.

Unlike traditional forms of wagering and betting, VIP Mobility enables guest to create digital TITO tickets on their mobile device by scanning an existing voucher or using their VIP preferred e-check account. The guest can pair their mobile device to any slot or table game by scanning a QR code. They can reload from their phone and retrieve funds once they are finished playing providing a seamless from funding through cash-out.
