How it Works
SmartReg
is a user-friendly system that includes software and a card reader. The software is not seen by the operator, as
it runs in the background on your machine.
By scanning an ID, such as a Driver’s License, information is
automatically parsed and populated onto your fields in your enrollment
screens.
This
process automates the recall of current customer records and entering
information for new records.
Benefits
Application
independent means there is no integration needed with your current
database. You use your current software
applications and screens. SmartReg
simply emulates human keystrokes by reading the electronic information from the
ID card.
- Fast and accurate recall of the correct person’s record upon ID scan.
- Automatic enrollment of person’s information when adding a new record. Any information available on the Driver’s License or government issued ID can be populated to your enrollment screen.
- Reduction of duplicate records caused by errors, typos and common names (ex: Johnathan Smith, John Smith, Johnny Smith, J. Smith). This technology allows for multiple search fields to be entered, such as Name, Date of Birth, City, State, etc.
- Greater privacy in the enrollment process by reducing verbal exchange of information.
- Enhanced customer satisfaction.
- Reduced fraud by detecting use of fraudulent ID cards.
Return on Investment (ROI)
The
value of each patron to a casino is extremely high as is the cost to attract and retain those guests. The speed of processing
patrons through the enrollment process is vital. For every minute a guest stands in line, the
casino loses revenue. One source
estimated this loss at $2.97 per minute.
In addition, the resulting duplicate record problem can also cost money
in duplicate mailings and database maintenance.
Implementation
SmartReg
can be installed on any PC running Windows or Terminal Emulation software. The software runs in the background, so there
is no operator involvement required with SmartReg. The software recognizes the screen the
operator is in (ie: Search or Enrollment) and automatically fills in the fields
accordingly.
