Everyone knows the original version of Monopoly. With the modern way of living and handling money in mind, this game has also been modernized. Monopoly: Electronic banking is a fast and fun variation of the classic board game. In this variant you use an electronic payment terminal and bank cards that are reminiscent of an ATM.

To step

Part 1 of 5: Being the banker

1. Start the payment terminal. Make sure there are batteries. Press any button to start the machine. Enter the bank card of each player and make sure that their starting balance is 15 million euros.
2. Familiarize yourself with the payment terminal. The machine is very similar to a calculator, but has a few buttons and symbols that may be unknown. There are slots marked with a “+” and a “-” on both sides. By inserting a player's bank card into one of these slots, you can deposit or debit funds into their account. Make sure you know what all the symbols mean before starting the game.
   • Because the display 5 digits only shows, to make use of the buttons "M" (million) and "K" (thousand).
   • "C" is the Cancel / Clear button. To restart a game, you have to use this button to change the amount of the bank cards to the starting amount of € 15M. You do this by holding down the “C” button until you hear a beep.
   • The arrow key is used when players pass “Start”. Insert their card into the machine on the left and click the arrow button to deposit € 2M into their account.
   • The numbers speak for themselves and the "." is decimal point. With this you can also adjust the volume of the payment terminal.
3. Deposit funds into players' accounts and withdraw money. During the game, the banker is responsible for depositing and debiting all amounts. The banker uses the payment terminal and bank cards for this.
   • Deposit money by inserting a player's debit card into the left slot of the payment terminal. This slot is marked with a “+” symbol. Enter the amount you want to deposit into the account. Remove the card as soon as you see the player's increased balance on the screen.
   • Withdraw money from a player's account by inserting their card into the slot on the right. This slot is marked with a “-” symbol. Type in the amount the player owes the bank. Remove the card as soon as you see the player's new balance on the screen.
4. Transfer money from one player's account to another player's account. If a player has to pay something to another player, the banker debits the amount from the first player and the banker deposits the money in the other's account.
   • Insert the paying player's bank card into the payment terminal on the right. The card of the receiving player must be inserted on the left side of the payment terminal.
   • Leave both cards in and enter the purchase amount. The amount shown is that of the paying player. Once the purchase of this amount is subtracted, both cards from the terminal can be removed and returned to the players.
5. Hold auctions. Auctions are held on assets not bought by the player landing on them or returned to the bank in the event of bankruptcy. If a player chooses not to buy the asset he lands on and the asset has not yet been bought by someone else, hold an auction to sell it for the highest amount bid.
   • The starting bid is determined by the first player to make a bid.
   • Give the title deed to the player who wins the auction.
6. Pay players who pass “Start”. Every time a player passes “Start”, insert their debit card into the payment terminal on the left. Press the arrow button to deposit € 2M into their account.

Part 2 of 5: Moving around the board

1. Assign the pawns. The pawns are different from the original monopoly board game in order to fit better in modern times. There are pawns in the shape of a spaceship, a Segway and a flat screen TV. Each player chooses the pawn that appeals to him the most.
2. Roll the dice. Roll the dice to determine who starts.Each player rolls both dice and adds the pips together. The player with the highest roll starts the game.
   • Roll again to determine how many steps you can take with your pawn.
   • If you roll a double (twice the same number of pips on the dice), finish your turn and roll again for a second turn. If you roll a double again, you get another turn. Throwing double three times in a row will take you to jail.
3. Move the pawns around the board. Set the number of steps equal to the eyes you roll. Take the action associated with the space you landed on.
   • Pay rent.
   • Pay taxes.
   • Draw a card from Chance or Community Chest.
   • Go to jail.
   • Buy the property.
4. Earn € 2 million. Every time you have made a round on the board and you pass “Start”, you will receive € 2 million from the bank.
5. Draw a card from Chance or Community Chest. When you land on Chance or Community Chest, you must take the top card of the relevant pile and follow the directions on the card. Then place the card face down at the bottom of the stack.
   • Move in the direction of the arrow to the place indicated by the map.
   • Receive € 2 million when you pass “Start”, unless you have to walk backwards.
   • If you draw a “Get Out of Jail Without Pay” card, you can sell it to another player for a price accepted by both parties, or keep the card for later.
6. Take a break on free parking. This place allows you to collect money or buy assets without having to take a card or pay another player rent.
7. Get out of prison. There are several ways you can end up in prison. Get out of prison by paying, double-rolling, or using a “Get out of prison without paying” card.
   • You can be sent to jail by hitting the "To Jail" space, drawing the "Go to Jail" card, or by throwing double throws three times.
   • Your turn is over as soon as you go to prison.
   • On your next turn, you can try to roll a double three times. If this does not work, you will have to pay the bank € 500,000 to get out of prison. Once you have paid, your last roll of the dice determines how many steps you can take.
   • Use a “Get out of jail without paying” card if you have one or try to buy it from another player.
   • You can still receive rent while in prison.
   • If you simply land on the prison space, you are just visiting and you don't have to pay a fine.

Part 3 of 5: Buying and selling assets

1. Buy an asset. When you land on an asset, you can choose to buy the asset for the amount stated on the board. Pay that amount to the banker or the owner of the asset.
   • If you don't buy the asset and it isn't already owned by another player, the banker will hold an auction. Even if you choose not to buy the property for the purchase amount, you can participate in the auction.
   • As soon as you have all the possessions of a color, you have a monopoly and can start building.
   • You can request rent from players who land on your property.
2. Owns utilities. If you own utilities, you can charge usage costs. Players who come to your utility company must pay your rent. The amount of the rent is determined by a dice roll. Owning both utilities significantly increases the rent you can receive from other players.
   • A player who ends up on your utility company has to pay rent. The player rolls a die and multiplies the result by 4 and then by 10,000.
   • If you own both utilities, the rent is 10x the die roll (x 10,000).
3. Buy stations. With stations you can collect money from other players. Each time a player lands on one of your stations, he must pay the amount indicated on your title deed.
4. Sell ​​assets to other players for an agreed price. You can negotiate this price together.
   • If you have buildings on assets of the same color, you cannot sell the asset until you have sold all buildings of that color.
5. Sell ​​houses to the bank. You get half of the purchase amount back when you sell a house back to the bank.
   • You can sell on your turn or between turns of other players.
   • You have to sell houses as much as you bought them.
6. Sell ​​hotels to the bank. You will be refunded half the cost price or you can exchange the hotel for houses of the same value.
   • For example, you can sell a hotel to the bank and receive four houses that you can place on the property.
7. Sell ​​assets to other players. You can sell streets, stations and utilities to other players to make money. You determine the price they pay you together.
   • Streets cannot be sold if there are buildings on that street or on other streets of the same color. You must first sell all buildings of that color to the bank.
   • You can only sell houses or hotels to the bank, not to other players.

Part 4 of 5: Building on your assets

1. Buy the first house. You can build your first house on a street as soon as you have all the streets of a color. Buy the house for the amount indicated on the title deed.
   • You can buy houses on your own turn or between other players' turns.
   • You must build evenly and cannot build additional houses on a street until every other street of the same color has the same number of houses.
2. Build additional houses. As soon as you have built a house on all streets of a color, you can build additional houses.
   • You must build equally on all streets of the same color.
   • You cannot build houses on a street with a mortgage. You cannot build houses on the other streets of the same color either.
3. Exchange houses for hotels. Once you have four houses on each street, you can exchange these houses for hotels. Return the houses to the bank and pay the purchase price for a hotel as indicated on the title deed.
   • Each street can have a maximum of one hotel.

Part 5 of 5: Losing and winning

1. Take out a mortgage on an asset. Once you have sold all buildings on the streets of the same color, you can choose to take out a mortgage. You will receive money from the bank for this.
   • Turn over the title deed. This shows that you have taken out a mortgage on this property. The mortgage value is on the back of the card.
   • You will not receive interest on a property on which a mortgage has been taken out.
2. Pay back the mortgage. To restore your property and request rent again, you have to pay off the mortgage. You do this by paying the mortgage value plus interest to the bank.
   • Replace the card as soon as the mortgage is paid off to reactivate the property.
   • The repayment consists of the mortgage value plus 10% interest, rounded to the nearest € 10,000.
3. Sell ​​a property with a mortgage. Sell ​​a mortgage-backed property for the agreed-upon price to another player to make money and avoid paying interest. The interest is now the responsibility of the player who bought the property.
   • The new owner can take over the 10% interest or pay it right away to pay off the mortgage.
4. Go out of business. If the amount you owe to the bank or another player is higher than the amount you have on your bank card and in property, you will officially go bankrupt and you will no longer play.
   • If you owe the bank money, the banker takes your title deeds and auctions them among the other players. Place "Get out of prison without paying" cards back to the bottom of the Community Chest cards deck.
   • If you owe money to another player, they will get all of your title deeds, "Get out of jail without paying" cards and the money still on your debit card.
5. Survive to the end. Take over assets and let other players pay rent until they go bankrupt. The last player left in the game is the winner.
