- Cash Game Operations — Table tracking, waiting lists, game types, and session history
- Player Accounts — One account across all venues, memberships, credit lines, and game history
- Dealer Coordination — Scheduling, availability, shift swaps, and cross-venue mobility
- Display Streaming — Push live clocks, seatings, and info to Chromecast screens throughout the venue
- Local Node Support — Optional on-premise Raspberry Pi 5 proxy for zero-downtime operation during internet outages
