AGS and NexGen Technology on Wednesday said Morongo Casino Resort and Spa is implementing 40 NexGen Fast Cash mobile chip devices.
Morongo Casino is located near Palm Springs, California.
AGS has partnered with NexGen to distribute the Fast Cash solution to AGS’ customers as part of the AGS suite of table games and table products.
The two companies described Fast Cash as a quick and easy way for players to buy chips at table games without having to touch cash or visit an ATM.
The solution is fully wireless, enabling players to stay seated at their table, where they can securely use their debit card to purchase chips through the Fast Cash wireless mobile device.
Players do not need to register or enroll. They simply insert their debit card into the Fast Cash unit to purchase chips. An integrated printer provides player and dealer receipts, the companies noted.
“We are thrilled to be in partnership with AGS on placing Fast Cash, the right solution for the right time,” NexGen Technology president and COO David Balmer said in a statement. “It is convenient for players, allowing uninterrupted gameplay while reducing the risk of contact with bacteria and viruses. And it is easy for casino operators to implement, with no connectivity to a gaming system required.”
AGS SVP of table products John Hemberger added, “It has been exciting to work with NexGen on placing Fast Cash at Morongo Casino. By providing convenience for the player and ease of installation, we are confident that demand for Fast Cash will increase as casinos seek to add more cashless, contactless solutions.”
According to Richard St. Jean, COO of Morongo, “Fast Cash offers our players the convenience of being able to quickly buy chips without having to leave a table game to walk to the cage, an ATM, or one of our kiosks. During the Fast Cash trials, our players clearly appreciated the simplicity and speed of the system, which aligns with Morongo’s history of employing state-of-the-art technology to enhance our gaming experience.”
