A home base for the people who own, run and keep gaming machines.

GMOOCA, Inc. builds software and hardware that let slot machine owners, operators and collectors run their machines the way casinos do, and writes plain-language guides to go with them. We've been at it since 2020.

  • Owners

    Bought a machine for the game room? Learn what's inside it, how it talks to other equipment, and how to keep it running.

  • Operators

    Running a parlor, a route or a small casino? Our software tracks meters, events and tickets at a price that fits, with enterprise and regulatory features on the way.

  • Collectors

    Keeping older cabinets alive? Trade parts sources, history and restoration notes with people who care about the same machines.

How GMOOCA works

  • No gatekeeping

    In this industry, systems, parts and know-how are usually reserved for licensed casinos. GMOOCA's software, hardware and guides are open to anyone who owns a machine, from a single cabinet in a game room to a small casino floor.

  • Built on the real standards

    Gaming Manager speaks SAS and G2S, the same protocols casino systems use, and features are proven on real machines on our own bench before release.

  • Reinvested in the work

    Most of what GMOOCA earns goes back into research and development: test machines, prototype hardware, and industry association memberships so we work from the latest GSA standards and tools.

We're not here to replace the communities and projects owners already rely on, like New Life Games and CabiNet. We want to build on what they've started. Where GMOOCA fits

  1. Software

    GMOOCA Gaming Manager 2

    Windows software that connects to your machines over SAS or G2S and keeps track of meters, events, tickets and credits. Built for home game rooms and small floors, not casino budgets.

  4. Hardware

    GMOOCA SAS Gateway

    A small box that connects one machine's SAS port to your network with a single Ethernet cable, so you don't need to run a serial cable from every machine to your PC.

Guides

Most modern slot machines speak one of two languages to the outside world. Our guides explain what those languages do, why they matter to an owner, and where GMOOCA fits in, without assuming you're an engineer.
