IGT signs deal with Red Wind Casino to provide multiple-product systems

IGT announced today an agreement secured with Nisqually Red Wind Casino under which the company will provide a range of systems solutions, including its IGT Advantage casino management system, to the Olympia, Wash. property. IGT Advantage will replace a competing gaming equipment supplier's casino management system.

IGT Advantage now connects Red Wind Casino's 1,500-plus gaming machines, and enables the casino to optimize its casino floor and cultivate world-class patron loyalty programs. In addition to IGT Advantage, Red Wind Casino agreed to install IGT's Media Manager system, along with the PointPlay, Random Riches and Xtra Credit bonus applications. Red Wind Casino will further enhance its casino offering by deploying IGT's Mobile Responder, EZ Pay, Table Manager, and several additional IGT system solutions.

"We believe that IGT offers a very comprehensive, innovative and high-quality systems portfolio," said Cheebo Frazier, Nisqually Red Wind Casino General Manager. "Red Wind chose to deploy IGT Advantage and several other IGT system applications because we are confident in the products' capacity to help us continue rewarding and entertaining Club Red members now and into the future."

"The state of Washington is an increasingly competitive gaming market, making it even more rewarding to have Red Wind Casino select IGT as its trusted systems partner," said Nick Khin, IGT Chief Commercial Officer, Gaming. "The combination of IGT Advantage, bonusing apps, Media Manager and Mobile Responder will position Red Wind Casino to operate a fully-connected casino floor, and to offer highly personalized player promotions."
