All the E-craps (bubble and InterOps) ive seen has a higher coin-in requirement per rewards card point.
At my local casino:
$1 coin-in slots =1 point
$2 coin-in vp= 1point
$4 coin-in e-Craps=1 point
Why?
Royalty fee to the manufacturer?

Welcome to the forum. No offense, this is gambling 101. You must know this.

Lower house edge than VP on passline and odds bets. People betting the center are just getting screwed as usual.
Even though some VP games theoretically have a higher edge, very few players play perfect strategy.

Offsetting bets can lead to minimal variance plays in positive situations. Casino can allow a .1% play in video poker because not that many people will take advantage of it. Allow that same play on e craps and there could be issues.
But in reality, casino management seems to believe offsetting bets can magically nullify house edge. See all internet casinos which disallow roulette on 50x bonuses.

Before everyone reduced the points you could earn, there were some very profitable point multiplier days. I only know of one left in Las Vegas, but there may be more

The one we talked about is no longer there but there's something just as good, if not better, a few steps away.

I guess that lets out M.

The M still has e-craps and plenty of seats available.
When people talk about skill-based gaming I always think of e-tables. Those young whipper snapper millennials seem to really flock to them. The skill is staying away from the wagers that carry a high HA.

Thanks for the heads up (though they do have a 99%+ video blackjack machine that might be good). I'll check out the nearby places

so what casinos (Vegas or otherwise) don't require more coin-in per point for e-Craps?
or at least don't require more than video poker
