Acres Manufacturing Company on Monday said it has integrated its Foundation casino management system with Everi Holdings’ CashClub Wallet.
The two companies said the combined technology allows casino operators to enable cashless gaming at any slot machine or table game and is deployable at casinos worldwide.
According to Acres Manufacturing, Foundation, released earlier this year, gives casinos capabilities to operate efficiently and market profitably to its players. The company said the system reports every measure of data from any slot machine in real-time, giving casinos direct ownership and control of the entire data library.
In addition, Acres said Foundation can write commands to the credit meter on any slot machine, making it a solution that works with cashless gaming.
Everi described CashClub Wallet as a mobile digital wallet that enables casino operators to offer a cashless and contactless funding option for the casino floor. The company said this single wallet solution deliversat all aspects of the emerging mobile casino ecosystem, including funding at the gaming device, payments at point of sale, or funding online sports betting, online gaming or social gaming, a cashless experience that provides customers with multiple options to access funds while on the casino floor or on the go.
The two companies said the integration allows casino players to move money into Everi’s CashClub Wallet, which then can command Acres’ Foundation to make appropriate changes to the credit meter on any slot machine.
They said Foundation can operate with no disruption to the existing casino management system, making the combined solution deployable at any casino operating Class II or Class III slot machines.
“We are proud to partner with Everi to allow its CashClub Wallet direct access to any casino game connected to Foundation,” John Acres, CEO and founder of Acres Manufacturing, said in a statement. “Together with Everi, we are answering the industry’s call to rapidly implement cashless gaming.”
Darren Simmons, executive vice president and FinTech business leader for Everi, added, “Leveraging a player’s mobile device for cashless gameplay and real-time loyalty data presents a great opportunity to extend engagement between casino operators and their patrons across the gaming environment. The integration of our CashClub Wallet solution with the Acres Foundation technology will help deliver a seamless mobile experience for casino guests and an integrated cost-effective solution for operators.”
