International Game Technology Plc (IGT), a provider of casino-floor technology and online game content, says it has extended by a minimum of five years, the group’s deal with an outside commercial partner to continue use of an automated clearing house system to make bank-funds transfers via IGTPay.
The arrangement is in order to “provide players with digital access to funds for cashless wagering,” said a Tuesday press release from IGT.
IGT mentioned in a previous announcement its growing focus on cashless technology for land-based as well as online play, as part of its response to the challenges wrought to the casino industry by the Covid-19 pandemic.
