As of 5 May 2026, NSW gaming machines may accept any banknote denomination approved by the Authority for use in the machine (GMA s.80(3)(b)). There is no statutory, regulatory, or technical-standards prohibition on a gaming machine accepting $50 or $100 notes specifically. The cash-input control mechanism is the BKNTLIM credit-balance cap (see gma-nsw-cash-input-cap-new-machines), not a per-denomination prohibition. The original calibration pack's "s.47C $50/$100 prohibition" claim was unsourced; s.47C governs ATM/EFTPOS facilities, not note acceptors.
