Konami Gaming, Inc., and Everi Holdings, Inc., on Thursday unveiled a partnership to integrate two of their respective products.
The companies said Konami’s Synkros casino management system (CMS) will be integrated with Everi’s digital CashClub Wallet, a cashless payments solution.
Through this partnership, terms of which were not announced, Konami said it will offer Everi’s flexible, cost-effective, funding and payment solution to operators that utilize Konami’s casino management system.
According to Konami, Synkros empowers operators to capture and compile data through all connected areas of the property – gaming and non-gaming – to generate a 360-degree patron view. This includes marketing, slots, tables, analytics, cage, credit, vault and other interfaced resort amenities.
Konami said Synkros, which includes marketing tools, reaches a wide range of property types from large destination properties to cruise ships, local casino stops, and multi-property portfolios.
Everi said its CashClub Wallet is an omni channel digital wallet that works in conjunction with Konami’s Money Klip, which delivers seamless cashless play at slots and tables.
The two parties said CashClub Wallet enables casino operators to offer cashless and contactless funding and withdrawals in and out of Money Klip on the gaming floor as well as at other resort amenities.
Everi said CashClub Wallet empowers casino operators to successfully deliver on all aspects of the emerging mobile ecosystem, including funding at the gaming device, payments at point of sale, or funding online sports betting, online gaming or social gaming in a cashless manner, all while preserving existing options, channels, preferences and features valued by customer segments.
“Synkros is designed to empower casinos to grow and leverage the latest technology available, through its robust, dependable and scalable architecture,” Tom Jingoli, Konami Gaming’s executive vice president and chief operating officer, said in a statement. “This integration with Everi’s cashless solution offers a highly dependable, hassle-free cashless experience for both player and operator.”
Darren Simmons, EVP and fintech business leader for Everi, added, “The partnership with Konami gives us the opportunity to support the Synkros CMS solution with our CashClub wallet technology. We enhance the player experience by bringing customer-centric features to loyalty, payments, and cage and cash operations. For operators, this partnership creates measurable efficiencies while extending engagement between casinos and their patrons across the gaming environment.”
