Venue operators are required to maintain an electronic or physical unclaimed winnings register, as outlined in the Accounting and Auditing Venue Requirements (Section 2.2)(opens in a new window). To assist, VGCCC provides an unclaimed winnings register template.
Any winnings that remain unclaimed for 12 months as of 1 March 2025 must be recorded in your register and paid to the State Revenue Office by 31 May 2025.
Unclaimed winnings can include:
- any winning tickets not claimed
- unpresented cheques
- accumulated credits left on an EGM
- ticket-in ticket-out (TITO) tickets left in EGMs or incorrectly placed in a donation tin
- coins found in EGMs.
Failure to comply may result in penalties.
