Welcome to the forum.

 

 

Although I am considered to be quite well versed in the law where it relates to fruit machines in the UK, I don't really know how it works in ROI - at least I'm assuming that's where you're located, from the references to Euros and your email address!

im up to date with the laws  im just thinking will it be worth my while with the profit after I give the boss a cut every week people mite play it for the first few months an then I could be at a loss if hardly any one plays it. im not sure how da machine pays out an stuff im sure you can set the percentage  il try it tomorrow an see I mite need more then one fruit machine if im gonna make any money at all was thinking of  getn another fruity from the money I make outa the one I hv that mite take a while haha

It would be unusual to promise a set amount to the site - it certainly doesn't work like that over here!

The safest way is to offer a profit share.

yup il chat to him again he was asking for 90euro a week got him down to 70 il say it to him about the share but he mite want to put money in then when im filling it if I hv to I told him id fill it myself he was fine with that id say il chance it for a month or two if it dosnt work out il ask him to profit share ill see what happens :)the machine is hard enough to pay id say judging from the free play. its called dr Jekyll & mr hyde from vivid  fun machine to play

Back when I sited SWPs on profit share the float (the money that was put in initially) was irrelevant in the equation - if I put in the float then that money was mine, if the landlord put it in then it remained his.
Any money that was in the machine after the float money was accounted for would be split, then the float went straight back in for another week.

Yes it's important to play it properly, the characteristics of play can be very different in demo mode to how it plays with real money...

I used to do this myself years ago when it was allowed by the councils, half of them use to get broken into most months, bloody inside job (staff).
