The Skagit Casino Resort in Bow, Washington, and JCM Global on Tuesday announced multiple upgrades the property is implementing across the casino.

JCM Global upgraded 720 games from its UBA bill validator and the iVIZION bill validator. JCM also upgraded the existing ICB Intelligent Cash Box system to the advanced, web-based ICB 3.0 system.

“At JCM Global, we build meaningful, long-term partnerships with our customers,” JCM Senior Vice President – Sales, Marketing & Operations Dave Kubajak said in a statement. “A key part of that relationship is developing a customized technology road map that ensures the casino floor operates at the highest levels of security and efficiency. We are honored that The Skagit Casino Resort continues to place its trust in JCM and our innovative solutions.”

JCM also installed a Digital Signage Solution 1.875mm LED video wall near the casino’s entrance. The display will be used in various ways to enhance the guest experience, including showcasing live TV feeds, promotional property content, and recent jackpot announcements.

JCM’s iVIZION is touted as “the leading bill validator in its class, unmatched in both security and performance.” It says its advanced Contact Image Sensor technology enhances security by scanning 75 times more data points than any bill validator, capturing the full image of both sides of a banknote or ticket while maintaining the fastest and highest acceptance rate.

JCM’s ICB Intelligent Cash Box system streamlines the drop process, eliminating human error, enhancing accuracy, and boosting compliance. The ICB system offers customizable web-based reporting for intelligence-driven floor drops and decision-making.
