Game Machine Factory Checklist for International Buyers

For international buyers, choosing the right game machine factory is not only about comparing prices. A reliable factory should provide stable product quality, clear specifications, export packaging, customization options, spare parts, and long-term after-sales support.

This game machine factory checklist helps importers, distributors, arcade operators, FEC investors, shopping mall buyers, and indoor playground owners evaluate a supplier before placing an order.

If you are comparing commercial amusement equipment, you can first explore EPARK’s amusement equipment catalog to review game machines, arcade machines, indoor playground equipment, and FEC solutions.

Check Factory Background

Before ordering, confirm whether the supplier is a real factory or only a trading company.

Ask:

• How long have you produced game machines?
• Which machines do you manufacture directly?
• Do you support international buyers?
• Can you provide factory photos or videos?
• Do you have experience with FEC or arcade projects?

A reliable factory should answer clearly and provide practical project information. Buyers can also review EPARK’s company background to better understand supplier capability.

Check Product Range

A strong game machine factory should offer more than one product type. International buyers often need a complete equipment mix for different venue needs.

Common products include:

• Claw machines
• Redemption machines
• Racing game machines
• Shooting games
• Kiddie rides
• Arcade cabinets
• VR machines
• Basketball machines
• Prize machines

For FEC projects, the best choice is usually a balanced machine mix, not a random selection of low-cost products.

Check Technical Specifications

Before confirming a quotation, buyers should request full technical details.

Item	Why It Matters
Machine size	Affects layout and shipping
Voltage and plug	Must match local market
Payment system	Coin, token, card, QR, or bill acceptor
Cabinet material	Affects durability
Screen and controls	Affects user experience
Power consumption	Helps plan electrical use
Packaging method	Protects machines during export
Warranty terms	Reduces buying risk

If a supplier only provides pictures and price, the quotation is not complete.

Check Quality Control

Quality control is one of the most important parts of this game machine factory checklist.

Ask whether the factory checks:

• Cabinet structure
• Electronic components
• Payment system
• Lighting and sound
• Gameplay function
• Appearance
• Packaging
• Spare parts
• Pre-shipment testing

Before shipment, request machine photos, test videos, QC photos, and packaging images.

Check OEM/ODM Customization

Many international buyers need machines that match their local market, brand, or venue theme.

Customization may include:

• Logo branding
• Cabinet color
• Exterior artwork
• Language settings
• Payment system
• Lighting style
• Packaging design
• User manual customization

If your project needs branded machines or special machine configuration, you can contact EPARK with your model list, quantity, and customization requirements.

Check Packaging and Shipping Support

Game machines are large and sensitive to impact during transportation. Poor packaging can cause damage before installation.

Good export packaging may include:

• Protective film
• Foam padding
• Corner guards
• Wooden cases
• Pallet fixing
• Waterproof wrapping
• Spare parts boxes
• Loading photos

International buyers should confirm packaging details before paying the balance.

Check Spare Parts and After-Sales Service

Commercial game machines need long-term maintenance. A reliable factory should provide spare parts and clear after-sales support.

Common spare parts include:

• Buttons
• Joysticks
• PCB boards
• Power supplies
• Coin acceptors
• Card readers
• Ticket dispensers
• Sensors
• LED modules

For common service questions, buyers can also check the EPARK FAQ page.
