Abstract: Systems and methods that receive data associated with a request of a software package installable on an electronic gaming machine, and generate a configuration script associated with the software package. The systems and methods further bundle the generated configuration script and the software package, and cause a delivery of the bundle to the electronic gaming machine.

Abstract: Systems and methods that, responsive to a triggering event, determine a current configuration of a software package of an electronic gaming machine, and determine a configuration of the software package associated with an applied configuration script. Responsive to the determined current configuration of the software package of the electronic gaming machine being different from the determined configuration of the software package associated with the applied configuration script, the systems and methods cause a configuration deviation event to occur.

Abstract: Systems and methods that responsive to an occurrence of a configuration event, determine a current configuration of an electronic gaming machine, and generate, at least partially based on the current configuration of the electronic gaming machine, a plurality of configuration scripts associated with a plurality of automatic configurations of the electronic gaming machine. The systems and methods further cause a delivery of the generated plurality of configuration scripts.

Abstract: Systems and methods that receive data associated with a request of a new software package to be installed on an electronic gaming machine, and determine a current configuration of the electronic gaming machine. The systems and methods further generate, at least partially based on the current configuration of the electronic gaming machine, a configuration script associated with the new software package, and cause a delivery of the generated configuration script.

Abstract: Systems and methods that receive data associated with a requested modification of an electronic gaming machine, and determine a current configuration of the electronic gaming machine. The systems and methods also generate, at least partially based on the current configuration of the electronic gaming machine, a configuration script associated with the requested modification of the electronic gaming machine, wherein the generated configuration script, when executed by a processor of the electronic gaming machine, automatically modifies the current configuration of the electronic gaming machine. The systems and methods further cause a delivery of the generated configuration script.

Abstract: Systems and methods that, following a request for configuration data associated with an electronic gaming machine, receive a configuration script associated with the electronic gaming machine. Responsive to an occurrence of a configuration event, the systems and methods cause an application of the configuration script to automatically configure the electronic gaming machine.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to controlling access to a gaming system. According to one embodiment, controlling access to a gaming system can comprise initiating a start-up routine and reading, during the start-up routine, a pre-defined value stored in a memory of the gaming system. The pre-defined value can indicate a market in which the gaming system is to be operated. The market can comprise a commercial market or a non-commercial market. A determination can be made as to operate the gaming system in a commercial mode or a non-commercial mode based on the pre-defined value. In response to determining to operate the gaming system in the non-commercial mode operation of a feature or function of the gaming system can be modified. Modifying the operation of the feature or function of the gaming system can inhibit the gaming system from being used in an unauthorized commercial mode.

Abstract: Systems and methods that enable one or more opportunities to win a prize based on an amount of pool funded via the redemption of cashless ticket vouchers.

Abstract: Systems and methods that modify different progressive awards based on different cashless ticket vouchers redeemed.

Abstract: Systems and methods that, in association with a redemption of a cashless ticket voucher, fund a progressive award and provide an opportunity to win that progressive award.

Abstract: Systems and methods that enable a transfer of funds from an external account to an electronic gaming machine, track a quantity of occurrences of an activity associated with the electronic gaming machine, and if the tracked quantity of occurrences of the activity at least reaches a threshold quantity of occurrences, determine, based on whether or not an identified user of the electronic gaming machine is associated with any responsible gaming limitations, an amount of a refund of an assessed fee from the transfer.

Abstract: Systems and methods that enable a transfer of funds from an external account to a ticket voucher and employ that ticket voucher in association with tracking a quantity of occurrences of an activity to determine any amount of a refund of fees assessed on the transfer.

Abstract: Systems and methods that enable a transfer of funds from an external account to a gaming establishment device, track a quantity of occurrences of an activity associated with the gaming establishment device, and if the tracked quantity of occurrences of the activity at least reaches a threshold quantity of occurrences, operate with a ticket voucher system to cause a ticket voucher associated with at least a determined refund amount of an assessed fee to be issued.

Abstract: Systems and methods that enable a transfer of funds from an external account to a gaming establishment device and, in certain instances, refund part or all of the fees associated with the transfer based on one or more activities undertaken at the gaming establishment device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to operating an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) to provide an electronic game on or through the ATM where the electronic provides a chance for a user to reduce transaction fees associated with a withdrawal. Accordingly, embodiments add a gambling feature at an ATM or kiosk which allows the user and option to play an electronic game in an attempt to reduce or win some or all the ATM transaction fee. The electronic game can be a game of chance or a skills-based game. In some cases, the game can be a multi-player game and the amount of reduction in the transaction fee, or even a award larger than the transaction fee, can depend upon an amount in a pot for the game.

Abstract: Gaming systems and methods configured to provide games based on obtained player game configuration preferences obtain determined player game configuration preference data, and select, suggest, and/or provide games for play by a player based on such player game configuration preference data for that player.

Abstract: Gaming systems and methods configured to determine player game configuration preferences for each of a plurality of players, and to enable the creation, use, and transmittal of player game configuration preference data for one or more games.
