What’s the difference between VLTs and slot machines?
VLTs and slot machines are both considered electronic gaming devices. In Saskatchewan, VLTs are located in licensed bars and restaurants with a lounge endorsement and are ‘coin in, ticket out’ devices. Revenues from VLTs are split between government (85 per cent) and the site contractors (15 per cent). Slot machines are located at the provinces six SIGA casinos as well as Casinos Moose Jaw and Regina. Revenues from slot machines go to Saskatchewan First Nations, the government’s General Revenue Fund and to help support charitable causes.
