What are video gaming terminals?

Video gaming terminals (VGTs) are electronic gambling machines licensed by state gaming boards. Eligible establishments (bars, restaurants, truck stops, fraternal organizations) may operate terminals depending on state law. Revenue is typically split between the establishment, terminal operator, and state/local government.

How is gaming revenue distributed?

Net terminal income (after payouts to players) is typically split between the state, local municipality, terminal operator, and the licensed establishment. The exact split varies by state. Municipalities also collect license fees.
