Cashless Gaming in Las Vegas

The STRAT has debuted a cashless gaming in Las Vegas via the new ACS PlayOn payments technology.  The cashless system allows players to purchase casino chips with a debit card at table games and eliminates the need to stop by an ATM machine or cashier’s window.

As reported in an article published by the Las Vegas Review-Journal, The Strat joins the D Las Vegas and various Station Casino properties — including the Palms — in offering this cashless system. ACS PlayOn said in a statement that the service is set to expand to the D’s sister property, Golden Gate, in coming months.

Recently the D announced it would be the first downtown casino to implement this system. A representative for the D and Golden Gate casinos declined to comment.

While the device can be used on slot machines, the two downtown casinos and the Strat are using it solely on table games. Fennel said the Strat plans to evaluate the system over the next several months at select tables before deciding whether or not to expand its use.
