A method of operating a system, the method comprising:
- responsive to receipt of first mobile device application configuration data from a first component at a first location within a gaming establishment, causing a display, by a mobile device, of a first appearance of a mobile device application associated with the gaming establishment, the mobile device and the mobile device application each being separate and distinct from any electronic gaming machine and any electronic gaming machine application operable to display any wagering game;
- and
- responsive to receipt of second, different mobile device application configuration data from a second component at a second, different location within the gaming establishment, causing a display, by the mobile device, of a second, different appearance of the mobile device application associated with the gaming establishment.
A method of operating a system, the method comprising:
- responsive to receipt of first mobile device application configuration data from a first component at a first location within a gaming establishment, causing, by a mobile device, an activation of a function of a mobile device application, the mobile device and the mobile device application each being separate and distinct from any electronic gaming machine and any electronic gaming machine application operable to display any wagering game;
- and
- responsive to receipt of second, different mobile device application configuration data from a second component at a second, different location within the gaming establishment, causing, by the mobile device, a deactivation of the function of the mobile device application.
A method of operating a system, the method comprising:
- responsive to receipt of first mobile device application configuration data from a first component at a first location within a gaming establishment, causing a mobile device application of a mobile device to be associated with a first attribute, the mobile device and the mobile device application each being separate and distinct from any electronic gaming machine and any electronic gaming machine application operable to display any wagering game;
- and
- responsive to receipt of second, different mobile device application configuration data from a second component at a second, different location within the gaming establishment, causing the mobile device application of the mobile device to be associated with a second, different attribute.
