“GLI-23 was created in response to an overwhelming industry request for a comprehensive technical standard covering these unique devices. While VLTs are similar in many respects to traditional casino games, VLTs are required to support distinct technical attributes. Those attributes are the primary drivers for this important technical standard,” said GLI Director of Technical Compliance Patrick Moore. “We believe GLI-23 will be a tremendous resource for industry stakeholders requiring a base guideline for the regulation of VLTs.”
The original draft version of the GLI-23 standard was provided to thousands of industry stakeholders for feedback. These stakeholders were inclusive of gaming and lottery regulators, industry suppliers, industry operators and industry trade associations. GLI reviewed and processed the comments received from these industry stakeholders, provided direct consultation to these same parties and applied comments and suggestions accordingly.
Each standard in the GLI Standard Series is a culmination of industry best-practices and is continually updated. In addition to assisting regulators, the standards are of tremendous value to suppliers who use the standards as a guide in their R&D process; saving time and expense.
