Brightbox Inc., a platform provider of secure mobile device charging lockers, announced it was the official charging sponsor of the 2015 Amusement Expo in Las Vegas March 24-26.

New York-based B2B kiosk technology company Brightbox develops and deploys secure charging locker stations for on-the-go people with mobile devices, including cellphones, phablets, backup chargers and batteries. The Brightbox Mark3 mobile charging platform will be on display at The Amusement Expo, the annual trade event for the coin-op, amusement and out-of-home music and family entertainment industry. The conference features a day of "Knowledge Sessions" followed by two days of exhibits.

Amusement Expo attendees can enjoy unlimited charging sessions via Brightbox lockers available at the event's registration and food court locations as well as at the Brightbox Booth.

"Brightbox charging kiosks are an ideal addition to arcades and family entertainment centers as well as to the product lines of amusement machine operators and vendors −- there's no cash to collect or inventory to stock," CEO Billy Gridley said in the announcement. "Offering a convenient and secure charging amenity allows them to earn direct revenue, increase dwell time and take advantage of sponsorship and advertising opportunities. When kids are dropped off at the arcade, parents don't mind paying extra for a charge card to ensure everyone can still call home when it is time to be picked up."

The Brightbox Mark3 features a 10-inch interactive touchscreen and customizable swipe cards, and the UL- and agency-certified stations ensure the physical security and data integrity of phones being charged and are PCI compliant, the company said.
