Where VLTs can be
A site needs a tavern or restaurant liquor permit with a lounge endorsement and at least 30 seats in the age-restricted area8. New sites receive three VLTs as they become available9.
People under 19 may not access or even watch VLT play, inside or outside the site10.
How the games are checked
Every play has a random outcome, and nobody can predict what comes next11. New games are tested by Gaming Laboratories International and then by WCLC on the central system before they go live12.
There is no single province-wide top prize: the maximum win per spin is shown in each game's help screens13.
Limits you can set
The screen shows a clock at all times. You can pre-select a session of up to 60 minutes and extend it once before the terminal cashes out14.
A voluntary, anonymous Player Services Account lets you set time and spend limits and review your history15.
