The Company’s showcase at G2E Asia 2018 (Stand #719) will include a full lineup of its Epic ticket-in/ticket-out (“TITO”) printers, TransAct’s current fully-featured and systems versions of Epicentral along with its Epic roll-fed printers for the global gaming and lottery industries.
“The Asian gaming market continues to thrive and as gaming expansion into Japan nears reality, TransAct is well positioned to capitalize and build on its market-leading position as a one-stop provider of industry-leading technology and printer solutions for global casino, gaming and lottery operators,” said Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TransAct Technologies. “Our entire team is excited to return to Macao where we will demonstrate our best-in-class portfolio of solutions for casino slot floors, gaming machines and lottery installations along with our deep commitment to the industry and unmatched customer service. In particular, our market-leading Epic TITO printers, two unique versions of our Epicentral promotion and bonusing print system and our proven Epic roll-fed printers will be the centerpiece of our presence at G2E Asia 2018 as we help our customers throughout Asia improve their businesses.”
Epic: THE Name in Ticket-In/Ticket-Out Printers
TransAct’s best-in-class lineup of Epic TITO printers on display at G2E Asia 2018 (Stand #719) will include the advanced Epic Edge, the industry-leading Epic 950 and its purpose-built Epic Edge TT and Epic 950 TT table top printers. The next-generation Epic Edge is built on the proven long-term performance of the industry-leading Epic 950 and is designed so that both printers can be easily run side-by-side. In addition, the high-resolution print capabilities of the Epic Edge can replicate a nearly unlimited array of characters and graphics, making this latest TITO printer an ideal fit for casino operators in Asia. Attendees will get a clear look at the unmatched reliability of the Epic Edge and Epic 950, both of which are designed to simplify casino operations and improve floor performance.
TITO solutions on display will include:
Epicentral Delivers Casino Revenue Growth
Epicentral has been the gaming industry’s only enterprise-level promotion and bonusing software solution for more than five years. It allows operators to easily target and provide printed bonuses in real-time to players while they play on the casino floor. Epicentral and the Epicentral Systems Edition (“Epicentral SE”) will return to G2E Asia 2018 to demonstrate how they are successfully “Delivering Casino Revenue Growth” for casinos around the globe. Epicentral effectively bridges the gap between the slot machine and the reward of the printed ticket, allowing operators to drive increased customer visitation and play with ease.
Epicentral v3.9, the latest version of this industry-unique solution, offers users a host of features that build on a proven track record of driving increased time on device and revenue. Innovative features on display will include the ability to run multiple promotions at the same time, create games within games, run different promotions on different slot game banks, segment players by tier, promote to different levels of uncarded players and leverage its real-time capabilities to improve operator decision making through detailed activity reports. Epicentral v3.9 also dramatically improves the player experience by allowing for the redemption, printing and re-printing of bonuses at multiple locations.
Casino operators are keenly aware of the need to differentiate themselves through their bonus offerings as they compete for player attention and business. While printed bonuses have historically been offered for player loyalty programs through direct mail or an in-casino host, Epicentral SE allows operators to leverage their existing systems to expand bonus capabilities to the gaming device. Epicentral SE easily turns current promotions into printed coupons thanks to the power of Epicentral’s Print Manager and Design Center modules. The system can print and deliver free play vouchers directly to players which can be redeemed at the slot machine. It also presents operators with an upgrade path to a full Epicentral system implementation to take the in-casino bonus environment to a whole new level.
Epic Roll-Fed Printers: A One-Stop Shop
TransAct is a one-stop shop for gaming and lottery operators, offering a complete lineup of Epic roll-fed printers. The Company’s Epic roll-fed printers have delivered industry-leading dependability and capabilities for more than 20 years and the full array of roll-fed printers on display at G2E Asia are ideal for use in the variety of gaming devices around the world as well as in self-service kiosk and lottery applications.
