the supervision of the staff. This will create not a gambling, but a fully-fledged multimedia device, which - upon meeting basic legal criteria - will not breach any current laws of most (not only European) countries.
What are the main features of the Mobile Lottery Terminal? The main feature of MLT®- mobile multi-lottery terminal system™ is - as a matter of course and as the title indicates - mobility. However, it is not a mobile phone, but rather a system device designed for operation in stone casinos, gaming rooms, sport bars, clubs, etc., where it is commonly permitted, registered and controlled by state authorities. The “mobility of MLT® ends” with the border of the premises of the casino or similar facility, where the central control unit is located.
Simply put, it is basically a portable VLT , consisting of a central control gaming server which communicates in real time with the central external control unit (placed anywhere in the casino), which is connected by wireless technology (wi-fi) with a set of three mobile gaming devices - displays (tablet PCs), external central acceptor, operator control module and a set of external monitors used for active animation of some games (e.g. roulette, Black Jack, Texas hod´em Poker, bingo, etc.) – see http://multiloteri. com/en/products/mlt-mobile-lottery-terminal. Patent files also contain various system modifications, which are only intended for wider product protection and which will probably not be used in practice. MLT® is completely consistent with the emerging technology trends and in the course of time it will create a completely new and anticipated gaming sector. It will become an important link between the current slot machines, VLT, IVT, etc., and still vainly awaited era of casinos on mobile phones.
Will MLT® be endangered by potential legalization of mobile betting and casinos in mobile phones?
No. Of course, anything may happen and history has proven that only the most stupid ones thought that new technologies were no match for them... and today nobody knows them any more. Betting on mobile phones might soon become commonplace. As regards a “casino on mobile phone” and whether it might be legalized at all, it is still for many obvious reasons very

uncertain and far away. One way or the other - if any “gambling in mobile phones” is globally permitted, players will look for devices they are used to using. And if it does not get permitted by the law, MLT® will be the only one legal mobile gambling device in the market.
What advantages does the central external
currency acceptor? It is hard to say if these are advantages or a necessity. It is understandable that a portable device of a common tablet PC size does not have sufficient space for a typical currency acceptor and a banknote collector. For this reason, the game can only be paid in five ways, namely: creating an account, setting a credit by the operator via an activation credit key directly on the MLT® gaming station, setting credit via operator control module, by inserting a “pre- charged” card to the acceptor of club cards in MLT® or by a central external acceptor™. The advantage of the external central acceptor™ is saving of operating costs and – in connection with a pay-out device – it also significantly limits the risks of cash handling. Another advantage is anonymity while inserting banknotes, if the acceptor is located e.g. at the entrance to toilets or a similar place which is not so much in public sight.
Each method has its advantages and disadvantages and it only depends on the preferences, needs and possibilities of individual facilities to decide for either of them. Integration of the EPOS system can be more than desirable, as this company ranks among the absolute top in the branch. We especially like their mobile printers and we have been considering integrating them in our system.
Is the Video Multi Lottery Terminal system a turn-key solution to each individual operators operation? MLT® is the only legal mobile (or portable) gaming device in the Gambling Industry, as it works on the VLT principle. MLT® must be considered as a means for gaming, a new possibility and way which each operator can adjust according to their needs. If you want a major change in your casino for your customers – mobile multi-lottery terminal™ is a good option.
