Delivering industry-leading products to modernize and popularize the casino floor 
The Company’s full suite of high-tech solutions and systems enables partners and casino operators to gather valuable, real-time insights into their casino floor activity.

“The ingenuity powering our program is unparalleled,” said Siobhan Lane, Light & Wonder CEO of Gaming. “We remain totally focused on fostering inclusive, high-performing experiences across our product line. As the only company with leading market positions in gaming, iGaming and social, we will continue to break barriers in the cross-platform space.”

Light & Wonder is also unveiling some exciting innovations in systems, technologies and shufflers:

• THE CARD RECYCLER: A smart utility that analyzes used cards for defects while simultaneously discarding damaged cards and recycling reusable cards into complete, casino-standard decks. This sustainable solution enables casino operators to minimize labor costs, cut annual card costs, reduce carbon footprint and maximize card supply.
• L&W Connect: The most established predictive analytical solution in the industry, with Slot Connect pulling data from more than 100 customer sites and sharing analysis to customers via a customer portal; and Shuffle Connect, a solution that taps into the shuffler and the smart shoe to count the number of hands dealt by table and time of day, giving casino managers a functional picture of their table game activity.
• Celebrity Celebration: an enhancement to the bonusing system that gives operators the ability to send a personalized video message to winners on the slot floor.
• ATOM: An easy, point-of-play PIN debit solution that allows players to access funds without leaving the table or handling cash. AToM promotes increased player retention and provides real-time accounting and game reports.
• Linux operating system for IVIEW 4: improves cyber security on the casino network; and iVIEW Guard, a premium subscription service that provides active threat detection on the casino floor offered by a class-leading supplier of end-point protection.

Enhancing the player journey across all touchpoints
Additionally, heading into G2E, L&W recently announced that it had acquired all of the assets of House Advantage (HA), a leading loyalty and marketing software and technology provider known for its core platform, “HALo.” “The addition of HA’s industry leading software and technology solutions allows us to capitalize on the growing convergence of digital and land-based gaming,” said Matt Wilson, CEO of Light & Wonder. “With HALo, we gain a powerful omnichannel player loyalty solution that complements our current product family and enables us to deliver a truly differentiated offering.
