RESPONSIBLE GAMING NETWORKS
Old TechnologiesLimitations of plastic cards with PIN
Cards have very low storage capacity (<1 k)
Cards & PINs can be swapped between gamblers
Cards can be easily illegally copied/skimmed
Cards require additional card reader expense
Cards operate on different proprietary standards Limits functionality to a single gambling

time. Card sharing correlated to PGSI score (i.e. PGs shared the
most).
