Walker Digital Table Systems (WDTS), a leading supplier of smart table systems, has announced an agreement with cryptocurrency payment solutions provider BurraPay that will see the latter’s cryptocurrency payment technology integrated with the WDTS gaming table platform.
This integration will make WDTS the first table games management platform to offer the BurraPay Direct-to-Device (D2D) crypto payment technology to its casino customers, the two companies said in a joint statement. WDTS technology is currently deployed on more than 5,000 gaming tables across Asia, Australia and North America.
“We are excited to be the first table games system to integrate with such a transformative solution in casino payments,” said Stephen Moore, CEO of WDTS. “Walker Digital Table Systems has always been committed to leading the industry with innovative solutions for the management of the table games ecosystem and BurraPay’s platform enabling the compliant use of cryptocurrency to fund the customer’s wagering account is the perfect complement to our suite of offerings.”
BurraPay said its patented crypto payment platform was specifically engineered to meet the rigorous compliance standards demanded by US gaming regulators – a barrier it says has until now kept cryptocurrency entirely out of the licensed casino ecosystem.
The D2D technology lets players easily fund their gaming device – slot machine, gaming terminal or connected gaming table – directly with cryptocurrency almost immediately, aiming to eliminate trips to the cage or cashier and to remove lengthy wait times normally associated with cryptocurrency payments. The company explained that all required AML compliance checks occur swiftly and seamlessly behind the scenes.
The company also offers both a fully-embedded platform that integrates directly with casino player account management systems in land-based, iGaming and online sportsbook environments; and an over-the-counter solution that has been developed for rapid deployment in land-based casino environments.
“We are very excited about this integration agreement as it enables BurraPay to deploy our crypto payment platform throughout Walker Digital’s international casino customer network, giving their players the option to fund their table game wagering account with cryptocurrency – at the gaming table – in a compliant and secure way,” said Luke Millanta, co-founder and CTO of BurraPay. “Our solution helps operators attract crypto-native players while giving existing players a fast, convenient new way to fund their accounts — a win-win for operators and players alike.”
The two companies said they will offer scheduled demonstrations of the integrated at WDTS’s Las Vegas headquarters during next week’s G2E trade show from 29 September to 1 October.
