Successful First Year for ITL’s Hygienic Cash Automation
CashGenic, the hygienic cash automation from ITL, was first launched in May 2020 during the height of the covid-19 pandemic to enable customers to pay with cash both safely and hygienically. Since it was first launched, ITL has secured a number of distribution suppliers in the UK and throughout Europe, who collectively have installed several hundred units in numerous countries including the UK, Germany, Spain, Belgium and Austria.
Commented on this achievement, Thorsten Labusch, VP of Sales & Business Development, said: “We are delighted with the success of CashGenic which was introduced during the height of the COVID pandemic as a solution for those customers wanting to pay by cash safely during a time when coins and banknotes were being incorrectly portrayed as high risk in terms of transmission. Although this was proven inaccurate, the COVID crisis highlighted the need for businesses to continue to accept cash while maintaining social distancing. The technology has been developed by us and the complete system solution is supplied and installed direct from our approved partners using their own hardware.”
“Our partners have developed a full solution that includes our intelligent banknote recycler and advanced coin recycler. CashGenic is an affordable solution with easy installation and no software integration involved. A compact, all-in-one counter-top device it ensures easy customer access, with pay-in and pay-out managed by staff via a mobile tablet device. One year on, and we have over 9 strategic partners spread throughout Europe who together have now installed over 400 units, across 22 different countries and this continues to grow.”
CashGenic can be used in various settings within the retail sector to automate the counting and handling of cash, therefore saving time and generating greater efficiencies for businesses, as well as helping organisations eliminate shrinkage and accounting errors.
Thorsten continued: “Our partners have installed the system at various retail venues including butchers’ shops, toy shops and fish and chip shops, amongst others. One of our partners, Perfect Money, provider of innovative payment solutions based in south Germany are proudly building the machines (renamed Vicky) in Germany. This high-performance, smart cash dispenser has space-saving dimensions so fits onto any counter and Perfect Money customers have reported that several businesses have seen an uplift in cash takings of around 10%.”
Andy Bullock, Senior Business Development Manager of ITL, commented: “CC Dynamic, our first CashGenic UK supplier, have been rolling out the system (branded as £XCHEKKA) with Maggi Electronics completing the installs.”
Commenting on a successful installation at the Café Royal in Scotland, owner and National Federation of Fish Friers (NFFF) member John Pagani said: “Overall, it’s been a tremendous success. The £XCHEKKA system is affordable, so much so, we ordered two, one for our indoor café and the other for our take-away. Staff love it, they no longer have to count change and can concentrate on serving the customer to provide excellent customer service rather than worrying about change and having to wash their hands after touching the money and sanitising again.”

DeGaming launches Web3 iGaming platform, names Ulle Skottling CEO
DeGaming has launched a Web3 iGaming platform and appointed Ulle Skottling as CEO, with the company positioning on-chain operations as a way to improve transparency across operators, affiliates and players.
The platform’s core product pitch is its proprietary “Glass Vault” technology, which DeGaming says provides real-time proof of funds and independently verifiable visibility of balances, transactions, and payouts.
DeGaming is also offering “Bankroll as a service,” routing transactions through its on-chain transaction engine to provide operators access to scalable liquidity for withdrawals and platform stability. The company said this is designed to reduce friction for operators trying to scale, while giving players visibility into the funds available on the platform.
The supplier said its unified platform combines game access, player account management (PAM) and reporting in a single blockchain-native operational engine. DeGaming added that operators can launch a customisable casino or sportsbook in “as little as two weeks,” including crypto and fiat deposits, automated payouts and a back-office.
Skottling joins as CEO to lead what DeGaming called its next phase. He has held senior roles at RAW iGaming, Videoslots and NetEnt. Skottling said: “The industry has evolved rapidly, but transparency and trust have not kept pace. It runs on what you can’t see, whereas we have built a platform that you can. We are challenging the model and defining the new standard for gaming infrastructure.
“Our Glass Vault technology gives operators, affiliates and players independently verifiable visibility into platform activity and funds in real time. The future of gaming will be built on openness, accountability and infrastructure that all participants genuinely trust.”
Emil Ahmed, co-founder of DeGaming, added: “Appointing Ulle as CEO is an important step in DeGaming’s next phase. We have built the platform around a clear belief that gaming needs more transparency, stronger infrastructure, and greater operational trust. Ulle brings the industry experience, commercial understanding, and leadership needed to take that vision to market and help operators launch with confidence.”
