Turning Stone, Point Place and YBR Go Cash-Only After Cybersecurity Incident
Turning Stone is one of the region's biggest employers and draws visitors from across Central New York, so anyone heading to the casinos, the Lake House or a SavOn store this week should bring cash.

Turning Stone Enterprises properties were cash-only on Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026, after a cybersecurity incident knocked out several systems, WIBX 950 reported. The properties stayed open.
Where it applies: Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, Point Place Casino, YBR Casino and Sports Book, The Lake House, and Maple Leaf Markets/SavOn convenience stores.
What's not working:
- Credit and debit cards aren't being accepted
- ATMs at the properties are offline
- TS Rewards benefits are on hold
- Bingo and TS Sports betting locations are closed
The company told WIBX it shut down some internal systems as a precaution, is working with cybersecurity experts and is taking steps to protect guests' personal information. It said it will post updates each evening on which services are back. No timeline for a full restore was given.
Hotel and restaurant operations weren't addressed in the report. If you have a reservation, call ahead.
