Casino loyalty and technology company, Acres, has gained regulatory approval in three states to operate its casino management system, Foundation. The company is currently licensed to operate in nine US states.
The Louisiana Gaming Control Board, the Mississippi Gaming Commission and the Missouri Gaming Commission approved the necessary licensing for players in all three times to utilize Foundation’s cashless gaming feature.
Noah Acres, of Acres Manufacturing Company, described the recent approvals as an “an important step” for Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri.
Acres commented: "We want to thank the regulators in Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and in the six states that previously approved Foundation's cashless gaming solution for their diligent review and approval of our innovative technology.
"Each of these regulators have taken an important first step in helping to bring modern technology to their state's operators that brings added convenience to casino players through an engaging and seamless user experience while providing operators with a powerful tool to grow revenue, attract new guests, and operate more efficiently and effectively.”
The Foundation system is currently deployed across almost 31,000 slot machines spread out between 21 US casinos.
Acres and Casino Science recently partnered to offer Casino Science’s InfiGifts app to Acre’s Foundation App Store. InfiGifts gives casino patrons direct access to gift rewards they can choose and claim directly from their smartphones.
Through the partnership, Acres and Casino Science have created an interface between Acres’ Foundation Platform and the InfiGifts app. Players can conduct cashless transfers during slot play and redeem their gifts in real time. Casinos will benefit from the technology’s rapid data processing features.
