Foxwoods Resort Casino and MGM Grand at Foxwoods will be partnering with TransAct Technologies Inc. TransAct Technologies Inc will be installing the Epicentral Print System in 300 of the property’s slot machines beginning in December.
“We’re looking forward to experiencing the Epicentral Print System and hearing feedback from our loyal gamers,” said Lou Rosa, vice president of slot operations for Foxwoods. “With over 6,000 slot machines on our award-winning property, we’re always looking for ways to differentiate Foxwoods and MGM Grand at Foxwoods from the competition and believe this partnership will help us do just that.”
TransAct Technologies Inc. is a global provider of market-specific printers in transaction-based industries. The Epicentral Print System is a software system that will enable Foxwoods to distribute promotional coupons and other marketing pieces to customers at a slot machine. The software is compatible with all of the casino’s existing slot machines and other gaming devices, and so long as each machine is hooked up to a TransAct Epic 950 printer, Foxwoods will be able to use the technology on any machine.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Foxwoods, one of the largest and preeminent casinos in the country, in introducing the Epicentral Print System to the public,” said Bart C. Shuldman, chairman and chief executive officer of TransAct Technologies Inc. “We believe the Epicentral Print System will be a significant addition to Foxwoods’ marketing program as it will enable the casino to reach out in real-time to its customers with multiple marketing and promotional messages to incentivize additional play time on the slot machines, promote incremental purchases throughout the property, or induce additional visits in the future. We look forward to a successful trial run and the possibility of a major expansion of the system at Foxwoods in the near future.”
Foxwoods will have the ability to provide machine players with promotional coupons, marketing messages, show tickets, hotel rooms, and special drawing entries.
