That’s because industry-leading transaction supplier JCM Global
has unleashed the power of its new and transformative FUZION
™
technology, bringing with it heretofore unimagined potential, flex-
ibility and profitability to the casino floor. With FUZION
™

with the potential to vend and redeem lottery tickets, conduct race
& sports betting; conduct cross-enterprise promotional couponing;
enable real-time currency exchanges; streamline tax forms processes;
facilitate Daily Fantasy Sports wagering … and much more. This
technology creates a one-stop multitasking gaming machine allows
players to do all this without having to leave their seat. One Con-
nection for the player access the widest range of games and services.
FUZION also includes Mobile I/O
™
technology. This allows
casinos with legacy, reel spinners, or any games without picture-
in-picture to use FUZION, by enabling the player to connect with
the game via smartphone through JCM’s Intelligent Bezel. This
technology expands the FUZION potential to all types of slot ma-
chines. “We’re taking out-of-the-box thinking to a new level by
connecting the iVIZION
®
bill validator and GEN5
™
printer to
the casino management system, and unleashing dramatically more
processing power and flexible functionality,” said JCM Global Vice
President of Worldwide Marketing Tom Nieman. “With FUZI-
ON, operators can work with their existing CMS provider to have
the ability to re-think everything, connecting more profitability to
the floor and increase player convenience.”
“You can take your smart phone, you tap it to the bill validator be-
zel, the plastic piece around the bill validator—and now your phone
digitally plugs into the slot machine (via Bluetooth),” Nieman said.
“Now when your mobile device is in close proximity to the slot ma-
chine, you can do all of the things that you would be able to do on
the video screen attached to the newer machines. And if you walk
away, the communication is disconnected automatically.”
FUZION has the potential to unleash many game-changing fea-
tures, including:
• LOTTERY READY: Sell and redeem lottery tickets at each and
every EGM and even trigger promotional messages before large
lottery jackpot draws, allowing players to use existing credits or
conduct a standalone purchase.
• RACE & SPORTS ENABLED With FUZION: each EGM
could be used to place race and/or sports bets and print a stan-
dard wager ticket. FUZION also gives casinos the ability to en-
able Fantasy Sports betting, their own or a third party’s.
• PROMOTIONS: Ties the enterprise together with system-gen-
erated promotions, instantly delivered right to the player, includ-
ing drawings, collectible promotions, F&B offers, special events

cepts the world’s currencies, and FUZION empowers multiple
