International Game Technology (IGT) has agreed to a multi-year partnership with Station Casinos to supply its Resort Wallet and IGTPay cashless gaming solutions to Station’s six primary Las Vegas properties, via the STN Cash mobile app.
Tom Mikulich, senior vice president of innovation for Station, said in a statement: “”Station Casinos continues to be the leader in guest experience providing our guests leading-edge technologies such as IGT’s Resort Wallet and IGTPay that drive slot play, distinguish our casinos and reward our loyal Boarding Pass members. Our IGT-powered STN Cash app is deployed across our entire Nevada enterprise and has introduced efficiencies and player conveniences that support Station Casinos’ growth and profitability targets.”
“It’s exciting to see Station Casinos at the forefront of the on-premise cashless gaming revolution by powering its impressive STN Cash app with the Resort Wallet and IGTPay modules of the IGT ADVANTAGE casino management system,” added Nick Khin, COO of IGT’s Global Gaming division. “In deploying IGT’s turnkey cashless solution and providing more ease to its customers, Station Casinos is positioned at the forefront of on-premise industry payment trends.”
The STN Cash app is now available for download for both Apple and Android users. Players can create a protected Cashless Wagering Account via the IGT Resort Wallet, and then transfer gambling funds directly into slots with the help of IGTPay technology. Those funds can then be cashed out or stored in the STN Cash account.
One of the biggest advantages of the new system is that Station players will no longer need physical Boarding Pass cards to play, they can now do it all through their smartphone and automatically accrue and redeem rewards points during their play.
IGT’s Resort Wallet and IGTPay were named “Product Innovation of the Year” in the 2021 Global Gaming Awards Las Vegas and the company was named “Technology Provider of the Year” in the 2021 International Gaming Awards for its leadership as a systems provider.
