Increase Revenue With Terminal Gaming

Video gambling generated nearly $2.5 billion in total revenue in Illinois in 2021,* up 32% from 2019 despite pandemic closures. We studied growth percentages and average wins per unit over the last two years and found that businesses switching to GEM grew their revenue by 65%.

Video gaming machines in each location make an average of $18,000–$19,000 in monthly revenue ($215,000–$230,000 annually). The state collects a 30% tax, and the remaining 70% is split equally between you and GEM, your terminal operator and partner.
