Gift & Go has announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Konami Gaming, Inc., marked by a new long-term agreement to further deploy Gift & Go’s best-in-class technology into Konami’s Synkros casino management system. This 10-year agreement names Gift & Go as Konami’s preferred and integrated gifting solution, reinforcing the partnership’s success and deepening its impact across the U.S. gaming market. 

Through this partnership, Synkros casino properties can benefit from the seamless integration of Gift & Go’s solution into Konami’s systems, enabling streamlined reward redemption directly at the True-Time Display screen and hassle-free gift fulfilment via Amazon. This integration empowers casinos with Synkros to attract and retain players more effectively, driving increased time on device and reducing player walk rates.

“The expansion of our partnership with Konami into a long-term agreement is a powerful endorsement of the value Gift & Go delivers to operators and players alike,” said Jon Reuben, founder and CEO of Gift & Go. “This exclusivity reflects the trust Konami places in our technology and strengthens our ability to deliver a modern gifting experience to players across the most mature gaming markets in the U.S.”

The partnership has already demonstrated significant traction through deployments with leading operators across live properties in multiple states, including New York and Pennsylvania. Additional traction with operators in California further validates Gift & Go’s value and supports continued expansion into regulated markets, including anticipated growth in Illinois.

Also at Konami, the company’s  Solstice 49C cabinet was ranked the industry’s No. 1 Top Indexing Cabinet-Portrait Upright, according to independent data collected by Eilers & Krejcik Gaming, LLC and Fantini Research in its latest U.S. & Canada Cabinet Performance Report.

Weeks following its market launch, Solstice 49C debuts at the top spot, achieving average performance figures more than double the surrounding zone and total property based on data across multiple casino locations. The machine is characterized by innovative lighting elements stretching from the height of the topper to below the button deck, which interact with game play in a brilliant spectrum of color.

Solstice 49C is available now in dozens of regulated jurisdictions, increasing daily.
