Global Payments Gaming Solutions Tuesday announced the launch of VIP Mobility at the Downstream Casino Resort in Quawpaw, Oklahoma. VIP Mobility is billed as the gaming industry’s first mobile solution enabling true cashless gaming.
“Downstream strives to be ahead of the curve in regards to technology and to reach new heights of convenience for our patrons,” said Downstream Casino Resort Director of Marketing Christian McDaniel in a statement. “VIP Mobility allows our patrons to not worry about leaving their seat, wait in line for cash, or wonder about their check cashing limit. VIP Mobility has been well received by the patrons. Downstream is looking forward to the future with VIP Mobility and the impacts that it will have on the operation.”
Unlike traditional forms of Ticket In-Ticket Out (TITO), VIP Mobility creates a seamless cashless gaming experience from funding through cash-out. By harnessing Global Payments’ VIP Preferred plus functions like eCheck and Choice 4 deferred settlement, patrons can transfer funds from VIP Preferred balances to games with the touch of a screen.
Patrons also can use the same account throughout the resort property, including for hotel and restaurant transactions.
“The ability of technology to provide services in a digital and intuitive environment has transformed the way all industries view the customer experience, including the gaming sector,” said Global Payments Gaming Solutions President Christopher Justice in a statement. “Through the implementation of VIP Mobility, Downstream Casino Resort can establish a true customer-centric approach to gaming and provide patrons with an enhanced experience throughout the entire property.”
