NSW gaming reform panel reports cashless trial results across 14 venues
New South Wales’ Independent Panel on Gaming Reform reported results from a cashless gaming trial that ran from March to September 2024 across 14 venues and 2,388 electronic gaming machines. The panel said only 162 patrons had signed up by August, limiting the conclusions; it found that more work was needed.
Low trial sign-ups limited the panel’s conclusions, giving policymakers reason to address implementation barriers before wider adoption.
