  • In short: One of the first cashless gaming trials in NSW found the technology made little difference to the behaviour of gamblers.
  • The Wests New Lambton trial has received criticism from gambling reform advocates, who say it did not include a card with binding and default limits.
  • What's next?: The Independent Panel on Gaming Reform will provide findings from an expanded statewide cashless gaming trial.
