Australian casino operator Star Entertainment Group and Las Vegas-based Konami Gaming have jointly announced the continuation of a longstanding partnership to bring Konami systems technologies to Star’s integrated resorts in Sydney, Brisbane and the Australian Gold Coast.
For more than a decade, Star has leveraged Konami’s award-winning Synkros casino management system to deliver dependable performance and fresh engagement opportunities throughout its portfolio.
“Konami continues to be the core casino systems provider across our portfolio due to the company’s ongoing partnership commitment, and Synkros’ proven reliability for over a decade,” said David Croft, general manager of product and strategy at Star Entertainment. “Considering the level of service, collaboration, and innovation we’ve maintained, Konami’s Synkros best aligns with the Star’s vision to become Australia’s leading integrated resort company. The Star is looking forward to continue its partnership with Konami in developing innovative casino management solutions.”
With the agreement, Star will introduce a number of technologies, from optimized rewards to cashless wagering. The Star has launched Money Klip cashless wagering for faster, more secure transactions. It allows players to load secure funds to their account electronically, rather than feeding bills or TITO tickets into each machine. Additionally, destinations across the Star’s portfolio will drive greater player loyalty rewards with optimal convenience, accessibility, and personalization through Synkros Offers Management.
“The Star is continually driving towards fresh entertainment opportunities and new levels of engagement,” said Mitsuhiro Miyazaki, managing director at Konami Australia Pty Ltd. “For as long as we have had the pleasure of working together, the Star Entertainment Group has been a company with a long-term, global approach to advancing the future of the industry.”
