Abstract

A system includes a smart table that includes at least one wireless beacon device configured to wirelessly connect with a mobile device of a player. The system also includes a processor configured to detect, via the wireless beacon, presence of the mobile device, transmit a request for a custom beacon identifier (ID), and receive the custom beacon ID. The processor also configures the wireless beacon device with the custom beacon ID, thereby causing the wireless beacon device to broadcast the custom beacon ID, the custom beacon ID is received by the mobile device of the player. The processor also receives a pairing authorization message that authorizes the smart table to pair with the mobile device of the player, and pairs with the mobile device using the custom beacon ID, the pairing establishes a wireless communication session between the mobile device and the smart table, allowing cardless identification of the player.
