Pay-by-Mobile Phone Technology Demonstration by JCM and Techfirm



A dynamic demonstration of the future potential of NFC or Near Field Communication in the casino gaming industry will be given by JCM Global in collaboration with Techfirm Inc. The demonstration will be made at the upcoming Global Gaming Expo or G2E, where JCM will be at booth #3631. Valuable feedback can be therefore provided by JCM's key customers at the Sands Convention Center in Las Vegas from October 4-6, 2011. JCM Global and Techfirm Inc. are two top technology development companies who have been growing their strategic development project.

Seven years ago, "mobile wallet" technology was launched by Techfirm in Japan. A preliminary research on implementing this innovative technology in the casino gaming industry was recently carried out by Techfirm and JCM. The intriguing project demonstration at the global trade show will reflect that research.

A private area of JCM's booth at G2E will be used to conduct this technology showcase. The innovative implementation of MW2 or Mobile Wager Wallet will be shown by key project engineers to the major business stakeholders.

In a release, Aki Isoi, Global President of JCM, said, "We are very excited to demonstrate the progress our teams have made in developing more convenient and more secure ways for players to enhance their gaming experience. We have a long history of innovation, and we believe our casino customers will benefit from offering this type of technology to their players."

According to Yuichiro Tsutsui, Founder and CMO of Techfirm, the required features and benefits for the gaming industry have been understood by the Techfirm development team by working closely with JCM. The organization is excited to demonstrate the benefits of the NFC solution to the major gaming OEMs and casino operators.

Migration of the technology into the global casino gaming industry is being carried out by Techfirm’s engineers in collaboration with JCM engineers and product development teams. They are exploiting the expertise and IP acquired by Techfirm for the same. World-class consumer convenience, accountability and security are expected to be delivered by the combination of Techfirm's technology and JCM's award-winning currency validation hardware.
