Yup. You load $$$ onto the card and then tap to play. If there’s a ticket payout, it goes on your card, which you can then take over to redeem into stuffed animals or whatever. Basically like slot machines, if your paper payout ticket instead got loaded onto your player’s card. Although most of the ticket-awarding machines definitely aren’t gambling, except that they definitely are (https://www.reddit.com/r/assholedesign/comments/bfcv69/the_cyclone_arcade_game_is_rigged_so_youll_lose/).
