“We quickly realised that the lack of cash on site meant we needed a cashless solution for our pool tables. We studied all the various options and the quickest to be able to supply (and incidentally by far the cheapest) were GPT. Fitting the TR-SLUs was extremely quick and easy and there’s the added bonus of being able to monitor battery voltages as well. Since the installation, we have seen a steady uplift in takings overall, together with a week on week increase of app usage. The bonus credit offer seems to have encouraged sign-up as intended, and reliability has been faultless - no problems with that side of things whatsoever since installation. Both myself and Sheffield University are very happy with the outcome, and I am fitting more units to my machines, including AWPs as soon as I get a chance. Cashless is definitely the future and this solution has enabled Amusement Caterers to be there at the start of the inevitable transition in a simple and cost-effective way.”
Andrew Cater
owner of Amusement Caterers
“The TR-SLU is an ideal solution for our cashless payment option needs. It’s easy to install and use, and we expect it to become more and more popular over the next few weeks. For us, it is another step forward in preparing for the changing demographic and this solution will help us to continue to deliver the best possible products and services to our customers. Our company is going from strength to strength, and we continue to stay ahead of the curve. GPT enables us to achieve this.”
Paul Smith

We greatly value this additional payment method and consider it crucial for continued revenue growth.

GPT ticks all these boxes and has proven to be a great asset to our business performance.

Cash payments are decreasing, and the Game Payment app is the perfect tool to keep customers selecting their favourite music from our jukeboxes, without having to have coins in their pockets. NSM Music will have the app up and running to demonstrate on their booth at EAG International 2022."
Martin Agabeg

“As a developer and machine supplier we adopted the Game Payment SLU very early. We were surprised how easy it was to implement into our Ace of Games gaming platform. Our customers have been using the cashless payment system for well over a year now with no operational issues.”
Paul Slavin
director at FatCat SoftWorks Ltd
“I was impressed with the pool table demo at ACOS, so much so, that we placed our order straight away. The main selling point is the potential battery life, whereas the other cashless systems we’re currently using all require a power socket. Game Payment is quick and easy to use. Once a player downloads the app on their phone, it makes cashless payments seamless across all machines in all venues. The team at GPT are outstanding and I’ve been encouraging all my fellow operators to get their orders in quickly!"

“We’re certainly seeing that cash is going by the wayside. We’re hoping more and more for contactless payments and we’ve got to find a solution to help our customers play our games. Game Payment provides that for us.”

“After being requested by bacta to assist Game Payment Technology on a technical front, with the integration of their system and amusement games, we were only too happy to help. To be a part of such an important step for the whole industry is an honour. Once live in the marketplace, I am sure this will be a massive benefit to all concerned. Seeing the app in action brought it home just how convenient it is for the player and equally how easy it is for any operator to use. Going forward, I can quite easily see Sega, and other manufacturers, installing the hardware at production stage to support this technology.”
Justin Burke
general manager at Sega
“It’s innovative, slick, so simple to connect to a machine, add your money and play. It’s easy to use, easy to understand and it’s gone out there and it’s been used – that’s the proof of the pudding.”
Jason Jarrett
managing director at AMS
“I’ve seen other cashless solutions, but I’ve always been convinced that Game Payment was the right solution for us as a company, not only because it’s backed by bacta and therefore ‘non-partisan’, but because it’s been truly developed with the player and associated protection measures at its core. We’ve not had to adjust ourselves to fit an inferior system. Instead, we’ve been able to work collaboratively and design something that works for the industry because it’s been designed by the industry.”
Chris Haley
managing director at Dransfields
“GPT was set up by bacta to develop a cashless payment app as a simple cost-effective solution for the whole amusement machine industry. Now, with the technical support from Sega, we are able to provide just that: a simple-to-fit, secure, low-cost, cashless payment option for all kinds of amusement equipment including videos, redemption, pinball etc. This will be a massive benefit for all operators.”
James Miller
bacta president
“We are delighted to have the ability to provide cashless payments on our gaming machines. We’re also very excited about the age verification and social responsibility capabilities that Game Payment offers. The accuracy of this technology is far higher than any human can achieve. Providing greater safety and security to our end users is of paramount importance to us.”
