By ALPHARETTA, GA - October 29, 2013 - Scientific Games Corporation (Nasdaq: SGMS) today announced the launch of a self-service cash redemption kiosk as an addition to the Company's SafeCash™ product line of secure cash management systems for gaming route operators. Offering operators and players advanced security and self-service technology, the kiosks will initially roll out in the state of Illinois (U.S.) this month.
"Scientific Games has delivered advanced technology for the global gaming industry for more than 40 years. Our innovative new SafeCash self-service kiosk reflects the benefits of a long history of manufacturing expertise and deep knowledge of highly secure systems that can meet the cash management needs of operators," said Brooks Pierce, Chief Revenue Officer of Gaming for Scientific Games. "The self-service solution offers our same world-recognized standards of security and integrity to players for their cash redemption transactions."
Designed with a player-friendly, touchscreen interface for convenient voucher redemption and optional bill breaking in international currencies, the self-service SafeCash increases operator cash handling efficiencies with one of the industry's largest capacity commercial coin dispensing units. The entire SafeCash product line was designed for maximum reliability, offering operators efficient service and repair, and all units feature a strong box for maximum security in route locations and for operator assurance of secure transactions.
The self-service SafeCash connects to an internet portal system, providing operators with detailed, real-time accounting reports and unit status reports for cash replenishment. It is certified by Gaming Laboratories International® (GLI) for redemption terminal standards and by Underwriters Lab® (UL) for product safety.
"As Scientific Games completed its merger with WMS this month, we are combining our collective expertise to offer customers an expanded portfolio of capabilities," said Pierce. "The SafeCash self-service kiosk launches at an excellent time. We now have the ability to package our SafeCash products with WMS' top-performing gaming machines and innovative game content, and leverage our long-standing relationships with route operators to offer a very powerful solution to customers worldwide."
