performance metrics that matter the most – acceptance rate, jam rate, security and cost of operation.

MEI has partnered with FunFair Casino in Ireland and displayed the SC Advance on the FunFair stand at the Irish Gaming Show exhibition. Mr. Stephen O'Leary from FunFair Casino stated, "Banknote reading technology is gaining in importance for Irish gaming operators. The introduction of ticket-in, ticket-out technology in the potential regulations makes the SC Advance the perfect solution. We have a strong sales and support team here to support MEI locally here in Ireland." Mr. O'Leary added, "New euro notes are being introduced this year. Operators will have to look to replace particularly the banknote readers that will no longer be supported by some manufacturers. Thus, this combined with a change to the gaming regulations on the horizon means that it is the perfect time to upgrade to MEI".

Mr. Erik-Jan van den Berg looks forward to growing MEI's business in Ireland, noting, "The SC Advance is the perfect answer to the new gaming regulation requirements. Furthermore, combining the SC Advance with EASITRAX Soft Count offers Irish operators the ability to create an efficient cash management system from the machine to the back room.
