Casino nights

Sell funny money at every table, not just the cashier’s cage.

A guest who runs out of chips at the blackjack table shouldn’t have to find the cage, or an ATM. With eventCNX every dealer’s helper and floor volunteer sells chips from their phone. Guests pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card, and the money goes straight to your organization’s Stripe account.

Where the money is on a casino night

Every table is a cashier.

Funny money at the tables

Chip bundles at set prices. The volunteer taps the bundle, the guest scans, and the screen says what to hand over.

Sideboard rounds

Each round has its own price, $5 early and $20 late. You start each round; volunteers can only sell the one running.

The 50/50

Per ticket, bundles or arm’s length. Watch the pot fill in live and lock it right before the drawing.

Wine pull, heads or tails, donations

The side games that fill the night, each counted on its own line in your totals.

  1. Week before

    Start from the casino template. Practice with your dealers.

    Change any price, add your logo and set a volunteer PIN. Then run a practice night with pretend payments, so volunteers know the screens before guests arrive.

  2. Doors open

    Volunteers open a link and type the PIN.

    No app and no account. Chip sales start at the door and keep going at every table.

  3. During the night

    Run the sideboards from the admin screen.

    Start and close each round. Volunteers see only the round that’s running, and the round pots fill in live with the winner’s half worked out.

  4. Drawing and close

    Lock the 50/50, draw, close the night.

    Locking cancels payments still waiting, so the pot can’t change after the drawing. Closing signs every volunteer out, and your totals and CSV are ready.

Running the floor

Plan for rounds, the pot and your state’s rules.

Questions casino night committees ask

Do guests need to download anything?

No. They scan the volunteer’s QR with their phone camera and pay on Stripe’s checkout page.

Can a guest buy chips at the table?

Yes. Any volunteer with the PIN can sell from their phone, at the door or at a table.

Is a casino night or 50/50 allowed?

Charitable gaming rules vary by state. Check yours. eventCNX handles the payments and the count.

Can we still take cash?

Yes. Keep a cash box if you like. eventCNX counts the phone payments; cash stays in your box.

Your guests have their phones at the table.

Set up your casino night and run a practice with your volunteers at no cost. Pay when you open it to guests.
