Sacoa Entertainment, the Argentina-based group renowned for its development of the Playcard cashless payment solution, rolled out the world’s first touchscreen debit card reader at the IAAPA Attractions Expo last month.

The revolutionary Touch ‘n’ Play display reader introduces some of the most advanced displays on the market today, adding a whole new dimension to debit card play.

"Compared to other readers with multi-colour graphics displays, Sacoa’s offering is not only larger, brighter and supporting a richer functionality, but the touchscreen allows it to interact with customers in ways previously unattainable," the group said in a statement.

"You can now run interactive sponsored quiz or skill games directly on the reader, awarding discounts for the play or direct prize awards. In fact, you create a game-within-a-game."
