Pioneer Vending, a Cincinnati-based gaming operator, boosted revenue 400% in the first week after installing its first Intercard cashless system at the Hueston Woods Family Resort in Ohio, according to a press release. The company switched from tokens to the cashless system, according to Pioneer owner, Luke Adams. After the first couple of weeks, the gain leveled off at 130%. The system has also reduced repair and service time.

"Our route collector really enjoys it because it went from an 1 1/2 hour process of going from game-to-game, getting tokens and then putting those back in the changer," Adams said. 

Pioneer's system is built around the iTeller Element, a self-service kiosk designed for the route operator and family entertainment center arcades with fewer than 30 games. The iTeller Element incorporates the key features of Intercard's reliable and durable iTeller into a smaller footprint and adds faster hardware and the new network-monitoring software.

Pioneer, which operates more than 3400 games in the Midwest, is now considering adding Intercard technology to additional locations.
