Singapore casino goes all-in with GPI

Friday, April 16, 2010

Gaming Partners International completed delivery of its initial order for RFID-enabled casino chips and plaques for Singapore resort and casino, Resorts World Sentosa.

The order consisted of chips and plaques from two of GPI’s line of RFID casino currency - Bourgogne & Grasset and Bud Jones.

The RFID technology offered by GPI’s lines of casino currency allows casinos to verify the authenticity and value of each chip instantly, reducing the possibility of counterfeiting, staff pilferage or miscounts.

With specialized software and readers the casino is able to track individual chips throughout the gaming floor as well as follow payments, fills and credits, tips, and wins and losses per table at any time of the day. [end]
