Fujitsu’s currency recyclers offer pari-mutuel customers the
ability to quickly fund accounts with cash or withdrawal cash like
an ATM
Fujitsu Frontech North America Inc., a leader in innovative
technology and front-end solutions, today announced that
Louisville, KY-based United Tote Company has integrated the Fujitsu
G60 bill recycling unit in the KAM Account Management Kiosk™. The
units went live in four locations during this fall’s meeting at
Keeneland Racecourse, October 4-26,
2013, one of the world’s premiere horse racing venues and annual
host to The Toyota Bluegrass Stakes. The Fujitsu G60 is a compact
recycling unit that can quickly and accurately recycle four
denominations, dispense a fifth denomination from its optional F53
loading cassette and accept deposits.
United Tote first piloted the kiosk solution including the G60
during Keeneland’s spring meeting in April 2013 and at Arlington
International later in the year. The KAM Kiosk enables pari-mutuel
customers to create accounts by scanning their driver’s license and
updating and viewing account history by swiping their wagering
account card. In addition, with the inclusion of the G60 bill
recycling unit, customers can fund accounts with cash or withdraw
cash as one would at an ATM. The kiosk supports United Tote’s
FastBet Mobile™ wagering platform which allows customers to wager
from their mobile device while at the track.
“The horse-racing patron is extremely demanding when it comes to
speed and accuracy, especially when handling their cash in a
self-service environment,” says Nate Simon, President, United Tote.
“We selected the Fujitsu G60 for the KAM Account Management Kiosk
after thoroughly testing it in our labs and putting it through
exhaustive beta and pilot tests throughout the country. It
performed extremely well in the most demanding environments. We
plan on integrating the G60 in all future KAM Account Management
Kiosk locations.”
The Fujitsu G60, with up to 1,900 notes capacity, features 4
recycling cassettes, 1 deposit cassette and 1 optional loading
cassette. The loading cassette increases up-time and productivity
by increasing capacities, start-of-day replenishment or providing
an additional denomination when necessary. Available in front or
rear access, the G60 supports mixed notes, new and used currency
and paper-based and polymer notes within the same unit. A true
market differentiator, the bill validator also has the ability to
capture in high-quality resolution, the image of personal checks,
barcodes and coupons.
“The fact that there are several other competitive recyclers in
the market makes us very happy that United Tote selected the G60
bill recycling unit for the KAM Account Management Kiosk,” says
Randy Fox, senior director, currency handling and identity product
solutions, Fujitsu Frontech North America Inc. “It was very evident
from the beginning that United Tote required speed, accuracy and
flexibility in a compact footprint. United Tote’s testing proved
over and over again that the G60 was up to the task.”
Fujitsu’s family of OEM currency handling products has the
quality, reliability, and advanced feature functionality required
to offer true value-add and control the up-front design and
recurring product support / maintenance cost. Fujitsu offers OEM
currency dispensers like the F50, F53, F56, F400, F510, and bulk
