About McGee Amusements, Inc.

McGee Amusements, Inc. is a long‑established amusement operator that installs and manages digital jukeboxes, coin‑operated and card‑operated games, and ATMs in bars, restaurants, and other hospitality and entertainment venues, primarily in the New York and New Jersey Tri‑State area. Founded in 1953 and headquartered in Ridgefield, New Jersey, the company is known for providing TouchTunes and other internet‑connected jukeboxes as well as popular bar and arcade games such as Big Buck Hunter, Golden Tee Golf, basketball games, Skee‑Ball, and pool tables.([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/company/mcgee-amusements-inc.?utm_source=openai))

A charge with the descriptor "CTLP*MCGEE AMUSEMENTS" typically appears when a customer uses a credit or debit card at one of McGee Amusements’ machines—such as a jukebox, arcade cabinet, or other amusement device—equipped with a cashless payment reader. The "CTLP" prefix is associated with Cantaloupe, Inc., a payment processor for unattended vending and amusement equipment; in this case, Cantaloupe processes the transaction while McGee Amusements is the actual merchant operating the machine.([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/ctlp-national-entertainment-charge-legit-or-fraud/?utm_source=openai)) These charges are usually small, one‑time amounts corresponding to game plays, song selections on a jukebox, or ATM and similar machine transactions.

If someone has questions about a McGee Amusements charge, they should first consider where they recently used a digital jukebox, bar game, or amusement machine in the NY/NJ area, then check any on‑screen receipt, text receipt, or bank app transaction details for matching dates and amounts. McGee Amusements publishes contact information on its website, including phone and email, which can be used to trace a specific transaction back to a venue and machine.([mcgeeamusements.com](https://www.mcgeeamusements.com/contact-us/?utm_source=openai)) If the charge still seems unfamiliar after confirming recent visits, cardholders should contact McGee Amusements and/or their card issuer to investigate, request clarification, or dispute potentially unauthorized activity; keeping screenshots or photos of machines where the card was used can help speed up resolution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a "CTLP*MCGEE AMUSEMENTS" charge on my card?

This descriptor usually means you used your card at a jukebox, arcade game, pool table, or other amusement machine operated by McGee Amusements and processed through a Cantaloupe (CTLP) card reader. The charge amount should match what you paid to play a game, select songs on a jukebox, or similar activity at a bar or restaurant.

What types of purchases typically result in a McGee Amusements charge?

Common transactions include paying to play digital jukebox songs, using coin‑op style arcade or bar games (such as Big Buck Hunter, Golden Tee, Skee‑Ball, basketball, or pool tables), and occasionally fees related to machines they operate in hospitality venues. These are almost always small, one‑time charges tied to each play or selection.

Does McGee Amusements offer subscriptions or recurring billing?

McGee Amusements primarily operates pay‑per‑use amusement machines and ATMs, so most charges are single transactions tied to individual plays or uses. Recurring or subscription‑style charges are not typical; if you see repeating charges, gather the dates and amounts and contact McGee Amusements and your card issuer to confirm what they represent.

How can I get a receipt or more details for a McGee Amusements card transaction?

Check whether the machine offered an on‑screen or text receipt at the time of purchase; some Cantaloupe‑equipped readers allow you to enter a mobile number or email. If you no longer have that, you can contact McGee Amusements via the phone or email listed on mcgeeamusements.com and provide the date, time, and amount from your statement so they can look up the specific machine and location.([mcgeeamusements.com](https://www.mcgeeamusements.com/contact-us/?utm_source=openai))

Why is the descriptor showing "CTLP" instead of the bar or restaurant’s name?

Because the payment is processed through a Cantaloupe (CTLP) card reader attached to McGee Amusements’ equipment, your bank statement shows the processor identifier plus the amusement operator name ("CTLP*MCGEE AMUSEMENTS") rather than the venue itself. The underlying transaction, however, occurred at the location where the machine is installed, such as a bar, restaurant, or entertainment venue.([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/ctlp-national-entertainment-charge-legit-or-fraud/?utm_source=openai))

How do I dispute or question a McGee Amusements charge I don’t recognize?

First, review your recent visits to bars, restaurants, or venues in the NY/NJ area where you may have used a jukebox, arcade game, or similar machine. If the charge still seems unfamiliar, contact McGee Amusements using the customer contact details on their website with the transaction date, amount, and last four digits of your card. At the same time, notify your card issuer so they can place a temporary hold, investigate, or issue a dispute if appropriate.([mcgeeamusements.com](https://www.mcgeeamusements.com/contact-us/?utm_source=openai))

Can McGee Amusements place temporary authorization holds on my card?

Some payment terminals may first place a small temporary authorization on your card to confirm it is valid before finalizing the exact game or jukebox amount. In those cases, you might see an initial pending amount that later adjusts to the final charge or disappears. If a pending hold does not clear within a few days, contact your bank and McGee Amusements with the transaction details for review.

How can I contact McGee Amusements about a billing or machine issue?

You can reach McGee Amusements by phone or email using the contact information published on mcgeeamusements.com, or through the contact form on their website. Provide the venue name (if known), date and time of use, the last four digits of your card, and the exact amount charged to help them quickly identify the machine and resolve billing or equipment problems.([mcgeeamusements.com](https://www.mcgeeamusements.com/contact-us/?utm_source=openai))
