The National Indian Gaming Association has recognized gaming supplier Everi Holdings as Associate Member of the Year for the “Every Cares Giving Module,” a feature in Everi ticket redemption kiosks at the properties of the Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma.
“Everi Cares” gives players the option to donate spare change from cash-out tickets to one of several charities, giving operators a new avenue to promote corporate social responsibility and support their communities while lessening ticket abandonment and coins dispensed. When redeeming a ticket, customers are prompted to donate to one or more charities, selected by the property from a vetted list of nonprofit organizations.
The Chickasaw Nation has deployed the Giving Module at 19 of their properties. On a national scale, more than 3 million donations have been made via the Giving Module, collecting more than $500,000 for local and national charities. More than 200 Everi kiosks throughout the U.S. are currently equipped with the module.
