Gaming Partners International Technology Review

The next time you visit the local casino, remember that although you may be having a good time and catching up on some missed entertainment during the work-week, the only way for a casino to make money and ultimately satisfy shareholders, is to make money. Gaming Partners International is a leading technology provider and fraud mitigation innovator in the gambling industry. Their job is to make sure casinos are able to track money and chips inside the gaming area. With all the noise and commotion down on the floor, keeping track of this information is not as easy as it may seem. Free drinks, crowded people, entertainment, and the hotel atmosphere can make it very difficult for the casinos to organize their financial assets properly. Gaming Partners works exclusively as an outsourced partner to provide the insurance and organization high-profile casinos need. The two main areas Gaming Partners specializes in are chip tracking and player tracking.

Casino gambling table managers want to be able to track and account for all the chip movements on their gaming floor. Some of the largest casinos now boast over 100,000 square feet of gaming. With special readers installed in key spots on or near the tables, at or behind the cage, or in a variety of other places, the casino can follow payments, fills and credits, table drops, tips, and wins and losses per table at any time of the night All of these applications improve table management with much greater accuracy. Simple timesaving tasks can promote instant cost savings. Expenses drop and casinos see returns many times over on their technology capital. More management time is available to attend to players and employees instead of being involved in basic and time-consuming accounting procedures.

Along with tracking chip movements, table managers want to be able to track and manage all the players movements in their gaming floor. Player chips can also be tracked with specific player tracking hardware and software systems. The casino can follow player bets, identify card counters, rate players, and objectively award complementary rewards. The software can make calculations and predict player trends, plus help casino personnel identify loyal players.

With new innovations in technology and security developed by Gaming Partners International, casinos are poised to maximize profits and secure shareholder investment.
