We do have $1 coins, for the record. They're just not 'widely' distributed. Vending owners, Routers can request them from their bank for change, and 'collectors' can order bags of them from the US Mint - for an upcharge.

Quoted from RacingPin:I would like to see more vending and pinball machines accept Apple Pay and equivalent. More people have there phones with them than they do change.

With the newer doors available, that support full-face DBV's, an operator could put on one of the CC/NFC/Bill acceptor faceplates (for Mars/MEI) and accept ApplePay, Google Pay, and NFC-enabled (and regulat stripe) cards as well now.
Quoted from Darcy:On a side note:
Last month I was checking my change, and there was a Sacagawea Dollar in with my Canadian coins. I had briefly thought that some one gave me a Car Wash Token, instead of a Dollar (Loonie).
If a Bill acceptor is on a pin, it could be set for 4 or 2 plays per Dollar, Right?
Yeah, you can.
Quoted from Dr_Smith:I always thought it was because it left the opportunity for people to neglect to cash the ticket, lose it, or even just let it expire. Also the amount of saving in staffing the hard count room and staff emptying/moving all the coins around as well as space likely adds up to a pretty penny.
Yeah - this is probably a HUGE benefit.
With cash, the casino doesn't own it until put it in. With the ticket system, they have all your money as soon as you give it to them.
