HB 1471 Oklahoma House · 2025 Regular Session

Revenue and taxation; coin-operated vending devices; exemption; effective date.

HB 1471 expands Oklahoma's exemptions from coin-operated vending device licensing fees to include devices manufactured before January 1, 2000, that dispense entertainment (like games or music) for 50 cents or less per play, provided they do not involve gambling (defined as outcomes based solely on chance without skill). This directly affects owners of older, low-cost entertainment devices in public spaces, such as arcades or community centers, by removing their licensing fee requirement. The bill amends existing law to add this specific exemption category, clarifying that devices must not rely on pure chance for outcomes. It becomes effective November 1, 2025.
