Las Vegas, NV - July 22, 2020
 

Konami Gaming, Inc. announced that its award-winning SYNKROS® casino management system has powered the launch of Marker Trax cashless casino slot markers at Ellis Island Casino, Hotel & Brewery, as the gaming industry’s first field trial of cashless slot credit lines in the state of Nevada. Guests at Ellis Island can apply, get approved, and begin using their slot credit in under five minutes, all electronically. Rather than receiving physical cash for a casino marker, guests enrolled in a PIN-protected SYNKROS cashless wagering account can use their Marker Trax slot credit line to play electronically on any slot machine on the property. The integration of Marker Trax with SYNRKOS enables Ellis Island Casino to seamlessly issue, record, manage, and track these cashless credit lines, for optimal collections and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance.

“The convenience and security of Marker Trax allows players to access an approved credit line in minutes, while eliminating touchpoints with physical cash and multiple personnel,” said Gary Ellis, owner of Ellis Island Casino, Hotel & Brewery. “It’s incredibly simple for guests, and truly streamlined within SYNKROS for staff and supervisors.”

“Using the Marker Trax system at Ellis Island is a very easy way to play and allows me to never have to withdraw at an ATM machine,” said Ellis Island Passport Players Club Member D'Ante Garner. “It's a unique and convenient way of gaming and I believe it's the future.”

Garner is one of several participants in Nevada’s first field trial. Another is Jeanette Disbrow, who credits Marker Trax for effectively advancing the gaming experience, “Marker Trax is changing the face of gaming. It's a safe and easy alternative for slot players to enjoy, rather than having to use an ATM. It's the kind of innovation that's been needed in gaming for years.”

“SYNKROS has long supported cashless wagering and now we’re thrilled to work with Ellis Island Casino to take the technology even further through Marker Trax’s increased access to convenient slot credit,” said Tom Jingoli, executive vice president & chief operating officer at Konami Gaming, Inc. “This technology allows players to apply for a credit line, receive approval, and download that approved credit to their game without ever leaving their seat.”

“The player response and business results with Nevada’s first Marker Trax field trail has been incredibly encouraging,” said Charlie Skinner, chief operating officer at Marker Trax. “Our goal is to take the risk out of slot markers, to ultimately advance play activity for the benefit of players and properties. Add the electronic cashless component, and it’s even more safe and convenient for all involved.”

As Ellis Island patron Gev Danielian explained, “The ability to be able to walk into a casino after work without having to stop by an ATM or having to go home and pick up cash has been a game changer for me when it comes to me enjoying my time.”

SYNKROS’ robust data analytics combined with Marker Trax technology allows administrators to track all activity associated with an extension of credit. This creates a verifiable audit trail to ensure casino credit is enjoyed within the casino environment. Players can receive automated notifications about their available credit, with the ability to access electronically from any machine within the property. When a player wishes to withdraw from their cashless account, the Marker Trax outstanding balance must be paid prior to receiving payout.

“As a leader in regulated digital gaming, Norsk Tipping has recognized the benefits of PlayBingo not only as a baseline product with crossover appeal, but as a vertical that supports responsible gaming through its social aspect and low average player spend,” said Declan Harkin, IGT Senior Vice President and COO, International. “Our experience in WLA markets in Europe and North America have proven that PlayBingo is a powerful driver of player acquisition and player retention, while accelerating growth across an operator’s entire digital offering.”

IGT’s PlayBingo solution offers both standalone and network bingo capabilities, and is part of a complete suite of PlayDigital products, game platforms, content, and business systems that work seamlessly together, with the flexibility and modularity to grow, adapt, and integrate with all types of lottery and casino businesses. IGT’s PlayInstantWin and PlayCasino game portfolios feature many popular titles from IGT’s leading PlayRGSgame content library, including exclusive, popular titles adapted from the Company’s land-based game library.

Norsk Tipping has been a valued customer of IGT, previously legacy GTECH, since 2012. In May 2018, IGT announced the five-year contract with Norsk Tipping for the digital Bingo solution, which can be extended for an additional three two-year extensions, for a total of up to 11 years.

In the conference area, GLI Vice President of Government Affairs and General Counsel Kevin Mullally will join Interim Chairperson of the Massachusetts Gaming Commission Gayle Cameron, for the session “Minimum Standards and Regulatory Harmonization – Pipe Dream or an Achievable Reality?” They will explore how best practices can be shared between regulators and legislators to avoid excessive regulatory fragmentation, along with finding common ground between regulatory and legislative forces to tackle responsible gaming, sports integrity, and enforcement issues.

GLI’s strong experience in online testing and sports betting, as well the company’s in-depth knowledge of each jurisdiction’s varying stipulations, has been heavily valued.


“We’ve been testing and certifying iGaming, sports, and events wagering for 30 years; however, until now, that testing was always outside the U.S.,” said GLI Vice President of iGaming & Canadian Services Salim L.

By fostering strong collaborations with regulators, tribes, suppliers, and operators, GLI ensures our clients enter jurisdictions fully prepared. We help them at every step of the process – from first understating the requirements so there are no surprises or delays to market, and then helping them succeed in their testing and consultancy needs.”


GLI Digital is everywhere iGaming is going and is approved in all regulated iGaming markets around the world. GLI Digital actively supports testing, consultation, and technical standards for all areas of gaming and sports wagering offered via the internet, mobile, wireless in-venue, and interactive TV.

General Manager of Camelot Illinois Colin Hadden added, “GLI’s governance oversight and project management expertise were invaluable to this transition.”

The first project of its kind, the complex disentanglement of Lottery business operations included transitioning all Private Manager lottery operations and processes from one vendor to a new vendor. In addition, the transition included all underlying technology, as GLI oversaw the transition of both lottery business operational processes, as well as core-system migration to deliver a new retail network, new data centers, new iLottery platform, and integration with the lottery’s scratch-ticket management system.

GLI experts also implemented governance processes to ensure quality delivery by vendors in the areas of project management, business and technical requirements, development and quality assurance testing, and data center and network design and implementation, along with retailer rollout and security.

After winning a competitive bid, GLI operated a Project Management Office (PMO) for two-and-a-half years for the oversight and management of the Private Manager Disentanglement Agreement Project transitioning the Illinois State Lottery from one Private Manager to another. GLI played a critical role as the PMO, implementing the necessary governance and project-management infrastructure to ensure the success of this transition, which concluded in February 2019.
