Gaming Application

Cash-Enabled Gaming Kiosk Deployment

Enable players to insert cash, fund game credits and start playing directly from one self-service terminal — reducing cashier dependency and simplifying payment-to-play workflows for gaming and entertainment venues.

Target Environment

Gaming lounges, amusement centers, entertainment venues and regulated gaming environments requiring self-service payment and direct game access.

Business Context

Gaming operators need a flexible way for players to fund gameplay without relying on a staffed cashier or separate recharge process. CRTLY kiosk hardware combines payment, player interaction and gaming system connectivity in one configurable terminal.

Industry Challenges

Operational Challenges in Cash-Based Gaming Environments

Gaming operators need to reduce cashier dependency, simplify player funding and connect payment directly with gameplay while maintaining reliable commercial operation.

Cashier Dependency

Cash-based gaming operations often rely on staff to collect payments or add player credits, increasing routine cashier workload and limiting unattended operation.

Interrupted Player Experience

When players must leave the gaming terminal to visit a separate cashier or recharge point, the payment process interrupts gameplay and creates unnecessary friction.

Cash Handling & Transaction Control

Frequent cash transactions require reliable banknote acceptance and clear transaction records so operators can manage cash-based gameplay more consistently.

Different Games, Different Workflows

Gaming projects may use cash-in only, game credits, digital payment or payout and redemption workflows. The kiosk hardware must be configurable around the actual game and transaction model.

Project Highlights

Capabilities for Cash-Enabled Gaming Deployments

Core hardware and integration capabilities for configurable self-service gaming environments.

Banknote-to-Credit Workflow

Players can insert banknotes directly at the kiosk and convert the accepted value into game credit or play value according to the configured gaming workflow.

Pay & Play at One Terminal

Payment and gameplay can be combined within the same self-service terminal, reducing the need to visit a separate cashier or recharge point.

Optional Payout & Redemption

Where the game workflow requires it, payout or redemption hardware can be configured for banknote dispensing or system-based redemption according to project requirements.

API & SDK for Gaming Integration

CRTLY provides APIs, SDKs and interface documentation to gaming software developers, enabling them to connect the kiosk's payment and peripheral hardware with their gaming application or platform.

Configuration Examples

How Gaming Kiosk Projects Are Typically Configured

Each project is configured around the actual operational workflow, integration environment, payment process and service model.

Payment Configuration

Banknote acceptance can be combined with POS/card, QR, NFC/RFID or other digital payment methods according to the gaming workflow and integration requirements.

Payout & Redemption Options

For projects that require redemption, banknote payout hardware or system-based redemption methods can be configured according to the game and operating model.

Gaming Software Connectivity

CRTLY provides APIs, SDKs and interface documentation that allow the customer's software developers to connect gaming applications with kiosk payment, peripheral and device-control functions.

Display & Player Interface

Flat or curved display configurations, touch interaction and interface layout can be adapted to the gaming software, player experience and venue environment.

Game-Synchronized RGB Lighting

Standard programmable RGB lighting can respond to game states and software-defined events with configurable colors, brightness and breathing effects, while supporting venue branding and a more distinctive gaming environment.
