What is G2S?
The Game-to-System protocol, or G2S, is a standardized communications protocol developed by members of the Gaming Standards Association. G2S enables secure communications between gaming devices and gaming systems. Put another way, slot machines and game terminals talk G2S to the casino's central management system, slot accounting servers, gaming voucher servers, and player tracking servers, and vice-versa.
Adding the G2S Protocol Converter to your legacy slot floor will enable it to communicate and interoperate with G2S host systems of the future.
