Abstract
A ticket management system includes a gaming establishment management tool, a gaming device, and a virtual wallet stored on a mobile device. A printer is located in a back office of the gaming establishment to print, store, track, and easily locate tickets. The tickets include financial transactional data, such as a cashout transaction, including a cashout amount and a gaming machine associative identifier. An accounting management tool and the virtual wallet exchange financial transaction data to properly record and display gaming account balances, gaming credits, and identifiers. The gaming establishment management tool, the gaming device, and the printer each include scanners, configured as validators, to validate a ticket, a gaming machine transaction, or a virtual wallet transaction respectively. The virtual wallet may be linked to or stored on a player tracking card issued by the gaming establishment.
