AGS Celebrates Table Progressive Milestone

Gaming supplier AGS announced that its base of installed table-game progressive products has surpassed 1,000 units. The company’s table progressive suite includes two platforms: the wheel-based Bonus Spin and the award-winning STAX, which features titles like Blackjack Match, Royal 9 Baccarat Progressive, and Super 4 Progressive Blackjack.

“The growth of our progressive installed base has been phenomenal,” AGS Senior VP of Table Products John Hemberger said, “especially considering that we only launched our table-game division in 2014 and had to build a development team, product portfolio and sales team from scratch.

“The fact that we have been able to reach this level of success so quickly is a testament to the strength of our customer relationships… We truly appreciate their support and will continue to innovate in partnership with our customers.”

Hemberger said there is a growing demand for table progressives to enhance the game-play experience by creating more scenarios where players can win.

“Table-game progressives are attractive to players because with a relatively small additional wager or side bet, the player has the chance to win a life-changing prize… the smaller jackpots are (also) fun for players because there’s an inherent feeling of luck.”

Foxwoods Vice President of Table Games Wayne Theiss said that AGS has allowed the casino to “add excitement” to its casino pit.

“We have over 100 AGS progressive products on the floor,” Theiss said. “Our players love the must-hit-by and community features of these products. We look forward to working with the AGS team to further enhance table-game revenues and deliver more value to our table-games players.”

AGS’ recent success has been driven by the STAX table-game progressive platform, which offers links to multi-level and must-hit-by jackpots as well as various wagering options, light-up bet sensors, and a double-sided display. The company plans to upgrade the STAX platform later this year with Golden Seat, a new feature that offers customizable rewards. AGS also will introduce Bonus Spin Xtreme, a wheel-based community experience in which side bets win secondary awards.

The company says it has a “healthy” backlog of orders planned for delivery throughout 2019.
