Link service fee
57 Link service fee
The linked-jackpot contract may provide for the licensee to pay a fee to the permit-holder for use of the linked-jackpot arrangement (the link service fee).
A link service fee must be worked out at the same rate for each linked licensee under the linked-jackpot arrangement.
A link service fee for a linked-jackpot arrangement must be fair and reasonable, having regard to the following considerations:
the amount spent by the permit-holder to set up the arrangement;
the amount spent by the permit-holder to operate the arrangement;
the best interests of each linked licensee and the people who play the gaming machines in the linked-jackpot arrangement;
anything else relevant to the costs and returns of the arrangement for both the permit-holder and the linked licensee.
A link service fee is not part of, or related to, the linked licensee’s linked-jackpot contributions.
