Abstract
A cashless method for operating a network of gaming machines from a central host station is provided. The host station issues a unique token with a unique player validation number. The attendant of the host station enters the amount given by the player into host station. The player activates a gaming machine from a system of gaming machines through the use of the gaming token. Upon activating gaming machine, credits from host machine are transferred to gaming machine. Once play has terminated on the gaming machine, the player may cashout any remaining credits or may simply activate another gaming machine through the use of the token.
