Technology

The gambling industry never sleeps - new technologies continuously surface at an impressive speed, and it's always worth checking out. Hundreds of gaming industry vendors came together for an unforgettable event at the Indian Gaming Tradeshow and Convention in Las Vegas this July to share the new gambling technologies, some of which are already available across casino floors. 

Cashless solutions are gaining massive success in the gambling industry, especially now that Nevada’s casinos are integrating the technologies into their facilities one by one. Scientific Games Corporation has already become a giant in the distribution of cashless gaming to operators, but as they join forces with Maker Trax, another major payment solutions company, the technology is expected to double in its progression.

Technology is advancing at an overwhelming rate, especially now that the world relies on computerized machinery more than ever. The gambling industry is no exception to such progress. Cashless gaming is one of the leading innovations that won operators’ hearts as the pandemic called for touch-less transactions. Resorts World Las Vegas became the first entirely cashless casino; up next is the Hollywood Casino York in Pennsylvania. Completing its final steps before the grand opening this upcoming August, the facility will offer a wide range of gambling entertainment accompanied by card-less, contactless, and cashless transactions. Barstool Sportsbook included!

Hollywood Columbus casino is among the first gambling facilities in the US (and first in the state) now offering cashless gaming in place of cash and plastic card payments. This new integrated aspect is bound to bring more business to the company, as this particular technology is slowly becoming prominent among modern operators. All guests have to do is bring a mobile device, download the app, and enjoy the beautiful world of cashless gaming.

Hundreds of Indian IT professionals and other qualified foreign workers missed their chance at the first H-1B Visa lottery since the draw was conducted early this year. Having a second draw is almost unheard of in this regard, but the computerized selection shortage tweaked circumstances in favor of discouraged contestants. The re-try is exciting news for both companies and the desired applicants. Intelligent minds are always needed here, and it’s America that will be the real winner when it welcomes hundreds of qualified individuals abroad. This time around, the rules will be slightly different.
