Abstract: A networked computer system for providing promotional awards to casino property patrons is described herein. The networked computer system includes a promotions management computer server including a processor programmed to execute an algorithm to receive an activity signal from at least one player tracking server indicating corresponding patron activity. The processor is programmed to determine whether the patron activity data indicates a qualifying promotional event, and responsively select a promotional award, generate an escrowed award record associated with the corresponding patron activity, and modify the award escrow data file to include the generated escrowed award record.

Abstract: A networked computer system for displaying images associated with non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on electronic gaming machines (EGMs) is described herein. The networked computer system includes a computer server coupled to a plurality of EGMs located within a casino property. The computer server includes a processor programmed to execute an algorithm to display an animated sequence of computer-generated images on a display device of a corresponding EGM including the steps of querying a blockchain system to identify a casino charm NFT owned by a casino patron, querying a charms content database to retrieve image data associated with the identified casino charm NFT, and rendering an image of the identified casino charm NFT on a game screen displayed on the corresponding EGM.
