Disclosed herein are an electronic gaming system with a wireless charger for providing wireless charging of a user's wirelessly chargeable device(s). The electronic gaming system may include a wireless charging status determination system that may measure an aspect of power supplied to the wireless charger by the electronic gaming system and may determine a charging status of the wireless charger from such measurements, thereby allowing determination of charging status of the wireless charger (and, correspondingly, a determination of charge status for a wirelessly chargeable device being charged by wireless charger) by the wireless charging status determination system without requiring any data communication between itself and the wireless charger and/or the wirelessly chargeable device. This may allow the wireless charging status determination system to communicate charging status information with, for example, the electronic gaming system without exposing the electronic gaming system to potential malicious interference from the wirelessly chargeable device.
