The casino industry is in the midst of a demographic shift with slot machines and traditional table games replaced with server-based, network gaming to encash on an entirely new audience of potential punters. With the surge in the online gaming industry, today’s gaming enthusiasts seek best-in-class online gambling portals, making way for advanced gaming software technologies that are custom designed for the new audience. Nevertheless, with the frequently changing rules from gaming regulatory bodies, CIOs in the casino industry often face issues with payment processing, player protection, system resilience and transactional integrity. Set against this backdrop is Everi Holdings, a provider of both games and payment solutions that help customers optimize their players’ experiences as well as their internal payment processes.

Casinos also have to contend with the various risks associated with money laundering and other illicit activities. Everi offers its anti-money laundering (AML) intelligence solution to commensurate with the level of risk. It also provides organizations with an easy-to-use tool for risk-based screening and monitoring internal control lapses and other financial improprieties, which is required for local, state, and federal mandate compliance.
