23 CAR § 355-1333. Ticket issuance

(a)(1) Cash tickets can be generated at an EGS through an internal document printer. (2) Additionally, cashier/change booth issuance is permitted, if supported by the validation system. (b) Payment by ticket printer as a method of credit redemption is only permissible when the EGS gaming device is linked to a computerized ticket validation system, which allows validation of the printed ticket. (c)(1) Validation approval or information shall come from the ticket validation system in order to validate tickets. (2) Tickets may be validated at any location, as long as it meets the standards in this section. (3) Provisions must be made if communication is lost, and validation information cannot be sent to the central system, thereby requiring the manufacturer to have an alternate method of payment. (4) The validation system must be able to identify duplicate tickets to prevent fraud by reprinting and redeeming a ticket that was previously issued by the EGS gaming device. (d) A ticket shall contain the following printed information at a minimum, some of which may also be part of the validation number or barcode: (1) Franchise holder name/site identifier; (2) Machine number (or cashier/change booth location number, if ticket creation, outside the EGS is supported); (3) Date and time (twenty-four (24) hour format); (4) Alpha and numeric dollar amount of the ticket; (5) Ticket sequence number; (6) Validation number; (7) Bar code or any machine readable code representing the validation number; (8) Type of transaction or other method or differentiating ticket types (assuming multiple ticket types are available); and (9) Indication of an expiration period from date of issue, or date and time the ticket will expire (twenty-four (24) hour format which is understood by the local date/time format). (e) If the taxation limit is reached on any single play the ticket/voucher must not be able to be redeemed at any place other than through human interaction (not on another machine or at a self-serve kiosk).
