Coming soon in Illinois
Compare what each operator will commit to in writing before you sign.
In Illinois the video gaming split is locked at 50/50 by law, so licensed Terminal Operators compete on service — newer machines, better games, faster fixes.
Operators pay one flat access fee to unlock a Listing — non-refundable, independent of outcome.

SampleThese offers are examples. Operator names stay hidden until you award.
Four steps from Listing to award.
The flow is built so the compliance posture is structural — not a disclaimer bolted on afterward.
- 1
List your place
Your Listing shows county, WPU band, terminal count, and the quarter your contract expires in — never a name, address, or exact figure.
- 2
Operators unlock with tokens
Licensed Operators buy prepaid Listing tokens up front, then spend them to unlock — before any offer exists, non-refundable, outcome-independent.
- 3
Clear, comparable offers
Games, cabinet age, refresh cadence, coin-op, response time. Every offer lands on the same rows, so you can weigh them line for line.
- 4
Award & audit
Compare side by side and award one. Every step is logged to an append-only trail you can review any time.
This is what you'd be using.
Not a mockup — the screens as they ship, on sample data.
What each side gets.
A private, competitive process.
- Stay anonymous until you accept — county-coarsened and revenue-banded, never a name or exact figure.
- Apples-to-apples offers on what actually varies — games, hardware, refresh cadence, and service.
- Nothing owed to list, and nothing owed to award — you award on your own terms.
Locations you’d never see otherwise.
- See real, in-market Locations actively weighing their options.
- Win on service and hardware — the things a Location actually feels every week.
- Prepaid Listing tokens are the only thing you ever pay — spend them to unlock a location. No commission, no success fee, no surprises.
Weigh every offer on the same rows.
One Listing, every offer side by side — every field comparable, nothing off the schema. Award a winner to release identities and close the Listing.
Try it — tap Award under any Operator to release identities and close the Listing.
See it in action
The transaction ledger, live.
Running quietly behind the marketplace, every listing, unlock, offer, and award is sealed into one append-only, hash-linked record. Here’s a sample — no names, no addresses, no exact location figures — so what the market agreed to is never a matter of memory.
- Append-only. Records are added, never edited or deleted. The order is the proof.
- Hash-linked. Each record seals in the one before it — tampering breaks the chain visibly.
- On the record — including us. Every publish, unlock, offer and award is written the moment it happens and never edited after. The same record that holds the market to its word holds us to ours.
What gets recorded is what an operator committed to — titles, cabinet age, refresh cadence, coin-op, response time. The 50/50 split is fixed by statute, so that is what a location weighs.
Illustrative sample data. The Gameset is a pre-launch prototype — not operating, not soliciting. These events are generated to show how the ledger works.
Put your Listing on the Board.
List anonymously and let Operators compete on service. It costs a Location nothing, and you award on your own terms.
