Back to Top How does the six month evaluation work? The six month evaluation allows new customers to fully use the most current release of the Gambling Manager's Assistant (GMA) to submit monthly reports for the month that the evaluation software is installed, and for the following five months. Following the evaluation period you will continue to have access to the program, however, you will not be able to generate reports for reporting periods after the last month of the evaluation.  If you decide to register our software, you will receive an electronic registration key that will unlock your software, and allow you to continue reporting for the additional license period.  You will not loose any of the previous information entered on your local system during the evaluation. Complete the Contact Us form to request an evaluation copy, or call us at (612)384-3329 to request your free six month evaluation. Back to Top What does the software cost? Use of the Gambling Manager's Assistant (GMA) software is $495 for the first year.  After the first year, we charge an annual fee of $495 per year to cover program updates, support cost, etc. Back to Top How often does the annual fee increase?  The current annual fee of $495 per year has been in effect since January 2006.  The previous annual fee of $395 per year was effective for five years, and the original annual fee of $295 was in effect for nine years. While we do not guarantee any rate for more than one year, we are committed to offer a competitive service at a reasonable price.  Since 1993, we have averaged less than 4% increase per year. In 2006, we also began offering a 20% discount to smaller gambling organizations (with less than $500,000 in annual gross profits) to protect them organizations from the 2006 fee increase.
