NRT Technologies, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NRT Technology Corp. and Sightline Payments, announced the extension and expansion of an exclusive agreement with Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun and Pennsylvania’s Mohegan Sun Pocono Downs for gaming payment systems, including online, mobile, and in-person cash transactions.
The recently acquired VisuaLimits intelligent table solution with the flagship 17-in-1 VL-Focus will be trialed across Mohegan’s table games to deliver payments and other operator benefits around productivity, management and engagement. Additionally, to support the Play+ branding and vision to power the world’s largest platform for cashless gaming experiences, NRT Sightline has obtained exclusive naming rights to Mohegan Sun’s new events center, which will be known as the Play+ Events Center.
“We’re thrilled to bring NRT Sightline’s payment technology to Mohegan Sun as our showcase property for a truly omni-channel guest experience. As the lines that separate cash and cashless payments begin to blur, we look forward to helping Mohegan and other world-class gaming operators to simplify and expand all aspects of commerce, so that they can stay focused on their core business of delivering a great customer experience,” said John Dominelli, NRT’s founder and CEO. “Our partnership with Mohegan is a prime example of NRT Sightline’s unique ability to ‘Connect the Guest Experience.’”
Ray Pineault, president and general manager of Mohegan Sun, added, “NRT and Sightline have invested in advanced technology and fresh concepts that go against the status quo of traditional payments. This allows us to stay competitive in our changing gaming market and our strong payment partnership, and aligns with our goal to always provide our guests with the best gaming and entertainment offerings.”
“Play+ is driving mobile payments as a significant customer engagement channel across slots, tables, or any online game of choice,” said Kirk Sanford, founder and CEO of Sightline Payments. “Mohegan Sun has confidence in investing in new and alternative payments methods to help improve the bottom line and enhance the overall customer experience.”
On September 20 2017, NRT and Sightline Payments announced an agreement to merge, with the combined entity to be called NRT Sightline. Following close of the transaction, which remains subject to gaming regulatory approvals, Sanford will assume the role of CEO of NRT Sightline. NRT’s current CEO Dominelli, will become chairman of NRT Sightline.
