You must not get out much. This is the exception much more than the rule for pinball in the Chicago area, especially for smaller locations that just have 1 or 2 games where card readers are pretty much non-existent. All of my locations operate on cash only and I prefer to keep it that way. If you want to alienate a large chunk of your customer base while also getting less pinball out on location, this is one way to do it.
Quoted from PinballGalore:Operators these days, at least from what I’ve come across, mainly use phone/credit card readers which has become the norm for paying for anything.
