Catawba Two Kings Casino Selects JCM Global for Pre-launch Facility in North Carolina

The new Catawba Two Kings Casino pre-launch facility in Kings Mountain, N.C., opened to the public on July 1 and is protected by leading technologies from JCM Global (JCM). Catawba Two Kings selected JCM’s iVIZION bill validator, GEN5 Thermal Printer, and ICB Intelligent Cash Box system for the 500-slot casino.
JCM, which is working with Delaware North, the hospitality and gaming company consulting on the Catawba Nation’s casino project, is planning to install these same award-winning solutions in future development phases of the Catawba Two Kings Casino.
“Delaware North has had great success using JCM’s cash management products at its own gaming properties, and those products have worked very well during our first month of operations at Catawba Two Kings Casino. JCM Global is a key part of our commitment to operate the casino with industry-leading tools and processes,” Mike Ulizio, president of the Catawba Nation Gaming Authority, said.
“We are honored to be a part of the Catawba Nation’s first casino venture, and we are pleased that our long-term partner Delaware North recommended JCM for this project,” Dave Kubajak, SVP of Sales, Marketing, & Operations at JCM, said.
“More Native American and First Nation casinos select JCM products than all other competitor products combined. We take that trust and responsibility seriously, and we continually defend our casino partners against evolving counterfeiting and cheating techniques.”

INCENTIVE GAMES SECURES ONTARIO GAMING LICENSE

Incentive Games, a leading B2B games provider, is proud to announce that it has been awarded an Ontario Gaming License by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), effective today. This achievement enables the company to offer its portfolio of real-money games to licensed operators and players across the province.
The license underscores the Incentive Games’ commitment to meeting the highest standards of compliance, security, and operational excellence. The rigorous application process demands robust security protocols and comprehensive responsible gaming measures and affirms the company’s readiness to enter one of Canada’s most dynamic iGaming markets.
The North American market is a strategic focus for Incentive Games, and this milestone follows closely on the heels of the company receiving its Provisional Michigan gaming licence from the Michigan Gaming Control Board earlier this month.
Incentive Games will distribute its real-money gaming content in Ontario through Incentive Studios, the company’s dedicated Real-Money Gaming division, ensuring a focused and tailored approach to the market.
“Ontario represents a huge opportunity for us, and securing this license is a proud moment for the whole team,” said John Gordon, Chief Executive Officer at Incentive Games. “It reinforces our dedication to meeting the highest standards while delivering compelling real-money content. We’re looking forward to building strong relationships in the region and continuing our momentum across regulated markets worldwide.”
