Abstract

A system and method for electronically transferring funds in a gaming environment is disclosed. The system includes a memory device operable to store a game value and memory device interface operable to retrieve data from, and transfer data to, said memory device. The memory device interface may be integrated into an electronic gaming machine or proximate a live table game or in a retail outlet. Monetary value may be added to the memory device by casino personnel or a kiosk. A player may then use the memory device to download credits to a gaming machine or in exchange for game chips at a live table game or to purchase goods and/or services at a retail outlet. The memory device maintains multiple accounts including a gaming account and retail account. The separate accounts have associated keys or secrets that permit the gaming machines and retail outlets to automatically select the correct account to transfer funds from and to.
