There's some rumor that casino tables don't like cash anymore because it has cooties, so you should use your debit card on this *bank raiding machine* to get a receipt so the dealer can give you your casino chips. I don't know how to reverse the charges when I cash out a winner. Most cards say you can't use them for gambling anyway but I'm not about to go looking for the small print. There's also a transaction fee and if it's gonna be $4, I'd better be taking out $1,000, which may be over-limit with the bank as an ATM charge.
Due to PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements for PIN entry devices, the manufacturer has built in safeguards that if the device is tampered with in any manner, it essentially destroys itself by completely erasing its programming and no longer functions. https://www.acsplayon.com/faq
Looks like they charge $4.25 per transaction, whether it's a $50 withdrawal or an $800,000.00 withdrawal.
This technology debuted at The D last January before anybody was wearing masks in the USA. The news article says you can withdraw $50 to $3,000.

ACS also charges the casino customer a fee. For each purchase, users are charged $4 plus 2.5 percent.

I don’t believe it debuted at the D last year, unless you were referring to that’s when it was at the D rather than when first in use. I saw it at Thunder Valley near Sacramento around 2.5-3 years ago and was at Red Rock and I believe Palms shortly thereafter.
I also don’t know that it’s just that the casinos don’t want to deal with the cash as it is this way the degens don’t even have to get up to go to and wait in line at the ATM machine which would give them a break to potentially change their mind, this can potentially keeps them at the table in action rather than the break. It’s very quick, dealer just hands the card reader to player it prints out a ticket for the amount and the player exchanges the ticket for chips. Also since technically there is no cash involved my interpretation would be that these transactions should not count towards CTR reporting requirements, how that’s interpreted seems like an interesting wrinkle.

I always wonder if my last bet at the table is $1,000 and it puts me over $10K, then I'll just tip the dealers to get me below $10K then I'll go to the cage.
This debit card machine doesn't work with credit cards and I've seen no mention of wiring your money back the same way it came.
Yes, this machine has been in test locations previously, but it's getting a coronavirus spin now and it's just not the tool for the job.
