Tomino Group sends Atronic Systems’ smart message to players

Published: 
01 November, 2007

The Tomino Group located in Malta is encouraging its players to ‘Be Smart, Play Card’ with Atronic Systems’ successful cashless gaming solution, CHIP CASH. The Tomino Group currently operates two casinos in Malta, the Oracle Casino and the recently opened The Casino at Portomaso each with 150 slot machines.

After Casinos Austria AG, the Tomino Group is now the second casino group to use CHIP CASH in a multi-site environment, fully utilising the extensive capabilities of CHIP CASH designed around its original concept. This means that both casinos function as a multi-site configuration whereby players holding a CHIP CASH smart card can visit both casinos and use the same card for playing, collecting player bonus points and redeeming them for services at either site.

The Oracle Casino that had only been operating with Atronic Systems’ Star|SLOTS and Player Tracking, has recently been upgraded to CHIP CASH. Meanwhile, The Casino at Portomaso opened its premises with coinless operation straight away. Both casinos also operate Atronic Systems’ Star|JACKPOTS module with the inclusion of Display Evolution.

“I was very wary about the step we were about to take when we went with CHIP CASH due to the vast change our customers would have to adapt to, but they took to the change ‘like a duck to water’ as the saying goes. Gone are the days when you expect to see players carrying a bucket of coins. More and more Oracle players have been asking us when we are going to be cashless like the Portomaso Casino. Who can blame them?” said Tomino Group’s Casino Director, Laurie Galea.

Atronic Systems’ Regional Sales Manager, Alex Van Den Brul commented, “It was great dealing with the highly professional and welcoming people from the Tomino Group again. They are a progressive group who are willing to invest in technology to bring their casinos into the world of ‘coinless’ gaming. It was especially satisfying for us to see the huge acceptance of our products from the Portomaso Casino players, a scenario we are confident will replicate at the Oracle Casino.”
