Bill Stuffing

AML/CFT

A variation of chip washing in which a patron inserts large amounts of cash into a slot machine’s bill validator, conducts minimal or no play, and then cashes out using a TITO (Ticket-In, Ticket-Out) ticket redeemed at a kiosk on the gaming floor. This technique exploits the TITO system to convert cash into a voucher that can be redeemed at a different location, potentially obscuring the connection between the cash insertion and the redemption. Casinos monitor for bill stuffing through system reports that flag patrons who insert large bill amounts relative to their actual play time and coin-in volume.
