We’re Off to the Races, With Instant Payout of Winnings on HPIbet
Players now have the option to have their winnings paid out instantly to their bank account.
TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Ahead of the Belmont Stakes on June 11th, Woodbine Entertainment is partnering with AptPay and NRT to offer instant payouts for their guest experience. For both online through HPIbet.com and land-based environments, players are demanding a faster and simpler way to get access to their winnings; without sacrificing safety and security.
This service, branded as “Apt-Send,” will be available to all land-based and online HPIbet.com players from June 7th allowing players to withdraw funds directly to their bank account in near real-time 24/7/365. “Delivering unique cashless experiences to players both online and at land-based locations is a priority for NRT as we lead the industry towards transformative digital gaming experiences,” Said Michael Dominelli, President at NRT Technologies.
“HPIbet.com top priority is protecting our customers data and their transactions. Measuring our customer feedback and through our research, we know the importance our customers place on having easy access to their winnings is paramount. The Apt-Send solution was exactly what we were looking for. Giving HPIbet.com customers a frictionless withdrawal experience to deposit their winnings into their bank account in real time, is a huge win. We are thrilled to be the first platform in the gaming industry to launch this groundbreaking product,” Said Kevin Maharaj, Director of Digital Strategy at Woodbine Entertainment.
AptPay, a processor for real time payouts, is partnering with WEG, NRT, and the leading networks to enable casinos and online gaming sites to instantly disburse winnings directly into the bank accounts of players, or to an instantly issued prepaid card. AptPay is PCI-compliant and amongst payment processing, they also have a complete Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money laundering (AML) check with post-secondary transaction monitoring, which allows an operator to leverage the AptPay service to pay out funds within seconds rather than hours or days.
Shams Syed, CEO of AptPay stated, “Providing customers access to their funds instantly has always been top of mind for any business in any industry. The gaming industry is no different, but it is scrutinized even further with tighter regulatory mandates and requirements around AML rules. AptPay has not only made it simpler to disburse funds in the gaming space but with multi-level validation it protects operators and players alike.”
According to livecasinodirect, the fastest transaction can be processed within 48 hours or two business days, while there are casinos where their customers wait for the money to be transferred for up to 8 or a dozen business days. Of course, most players would choose a website that offers faster and safer transfers than, for example, waiting for days for a minimal amount of money to be transferred. HPIbet.com players can now receive payouts safely and instantly to their bank accounts and within minutes.
Ramesh Jayakrishnan, Vice President, Product Development at Mastercard added, “Mastercard is delighted to partner with AptPay to enable near-real-time disbursements in Canada. This is another great example of a partnership to deliver real-time payments with certainty, giving customers a choice on how they want to receive payments.”
