As a screen saver can import the Casino Logo on each terminal. The Casino Logo is also available on card backs and poker felt on video poker games.

Tokenization - Our games display in either cash amounts or credits.

Methods of cash acceptance

We have several different modes of cash acceptance.

Coin In/ Coin Out - Coin comparator and coin hopper. This mode of operation requires the most amount of physical lod and employee handling. Coin Hoppers also require significantly more electrical current load on a casino’s electrical system.

Bill In/Thermal Ticket Out - Bills are accepted in a bill validator and cash outs are printed onto a secure ticket with an encrypted validation number. At the casinos redemption area the ticket is scanned, removing the validation number from the server database. The player receives their cash. The ticket if duplicated does nothing because the validation number shows to have already been cashed in the server database

Card In/Card Out - This combined with card in/out on each terminal allows you to keep the funds in a few kiosks. This feature not only reduces costs in terminal by eliminating bill validators, printers and coin handling, but it makes you cash drops simple and quick. This system can make drop time 400% quicker and with 1/10th of the staff time or even personnel. A player simply inserts their currency into the kiosk and receives a magnetic card and a secure access PIN (an assigned Personal Identification Number). From there they can take the card to any game, insert the card and enter their PIN on screen, and then their credit is logged to that game. To cash out, simply remove the card and take it to a cash-out kiosk or the Casinos redemption area.

Multi-currency Acceptance

If available depending upon the Country. Certain bills may be able to be accepted in both USA denominations and foreign currency.

If multi currency is not an option available through a single bill acceptor but access for players is still needed, we recommend our Multicurrency Magnetic Card Kiosk. See also Card In/ Card Out above.
