Located in Elk Grove, California, Sky River Casino was developed and built for the Wilton Rancheria Tribe by Boyd Gaming. Boyd will operate the 2,000 slot machines and 80 table games within the venue.

“TransAct is ecstatic to support Sky River Casino’s commitment to giving guests a top-notch gaming experience, and the Epic Edge is the perfect fit to meet their goals,” said TransAct Technologies CEO Bart Shuldman.

TransAct noted that its Epic Edge printer has a 300 DPI resolution for maximum ticket appearance, readability, and acceptance by bill validators. It is also equipped with USB and serial connections on a single board.

“The dual interfaces are an operator favourite as just one printer supports the full range of new and legacy games, reducing the need for excess printer inventory,” the group noted.

Sky River Casino surprised customers with a midnight opening on 16 August 2022, with the abandoned mall complex “turned into a new casino with unlimited possibilities”, with future plans to add a hotel and spa.

Boyd Gaming Senior Vice President Chris Gibase commented: “Sky River Casino is focused on providing the best customer experience and we selected the Epic Edge for its superior performance and features.”

Earlier this week Sky River Casino and Konami Gaming launched several cashless options at the newly constructed location. By combining Everi’s digital CashClub Wallet with Konami’s Synkros casino management system, Sky River Casino will be debuting a cashless experience on the gaming floor.
