NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2008

1.
NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Money Centers of America Inc. (the "Company" or "MCA"), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated in October 1997.  The Company is a single source provider of cash access services, OnSwitchTransaction Management System, and the Omni Network. The Company has combined advanced technology with personalized customer services to deliver ATM, Credit Card Advance, POS Debit, Check Cashing Services, CreditPlus (outsourced marker services), cash access host program, customer data sharing and merchant card processing.

(A)    Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.  The Company and its subsidiaries have fiscal years ending on December 31.

(B)    Principles of Consolidation

The Company  consolidates its wholly owned  subsidiaries.   All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(C)    Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the periods presented.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant estimates during 2008 and 2007 include depreciable lives on equipment, the valuation of stock options granted for services, the value of warrants issued in connection with debt related financing, valuation of intangible assets not having finite lives and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets since the Company had continuing operating losses.

(D)    Reclassification

Certain prior periods balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s financial statement presentation.  These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of operations or stockholders’ deficit.

(E)    Cash and Cash Equivalents and Compensating Balances

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution.  The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits.  The balance exceeded the federally insured limit by $2,669,562 and $3,466,785 at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.  In addition, the Company maintains a significant amount of cash at each of the casinos.  Management believes that the Company has controls in place to safeguard these on-hand amounts, and that no significant credit risk exists with respect to cash.

Additionally, the Company had $30,000 maintained under a compensating balance agreement.  The $30,000 is retained due to potential dishonorment of bad checks that are unforeseen.  There is an informal agreement between our bank and our lender that requires this compensating balance agreement.

MARCH 31, 2008

 (F)    Restricted Cash

Restricted cash is the balance of cash that is in the Company's bank accounts and network that is used as collateral for our asset based lender (See Note 3). The Company does not have access to this cash unless there is an amount over and above the required amount of collateral. In order to pay operating expenses, the Company requests that the asset based lender transfer funds into the Company's unrestricted cash accounts. The restricted cash balance was $1,693,436 and $2,527,631 at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

(G)    Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable arise primarily from ATM, credit card advances and check cashing services provided at casino locations.  Concentration of credit risk related to ATM and credit card advances are limited to the processors who remit the cash advanced back to the Company along with the Company's allocable share of fees earned. The Company believes these processors are financially stable and no significant credit risk exists with respect to accounts receivable arising from credit card advances. Accordingly, no allowance was considered necessary at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

(H)    Equipment

Equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Equipment consists primarily of cash access devices and computer equipment.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which ranges from five to seven years.

(I)    Long Lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell the asset. There were no impairment charges taken during the periods ended March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

MARCH 31, 2008

(J)    Intangibles and Related Impairment

Based on the discounted estimated cash flows of the Company over the remaining amortization period, the Company's carrying values of the assets would be reduced to their estimated fair values.  Goodwill is assumed to have an indefinite life pursuant to statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" and accordingly is not amortized but subject to periodic impairment tests. Acquired contract rights are considered to have a finite life, pursuant to SFAS 142, to be amortized over the period the asset is expected to contribute to future cash flows.  The Company expects the period to be 1 to 4 years.  The contract rights will also be subject to periodic impairment tests.

(K)   Internal Use Software and Website Development Costs

The Company has adopted the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use", and Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF" )  Consensus #00-2.  "Accounting for Website Development Costs." The type of costs incurred by the Company in developing its internal use software and Website include, but are not limited to payroll-related costs (e.g.  fringe benefits) for employees who devote time to the internal use computer software or Website project, consulting fees, the price of computer software purchased from third parties and travel expenses incurred by employees or consultants in their duties directly associated with developing the software.  These costs are either expensed or capitalized depending on the type of cost and the stage of development of the software and Website.

The Company makes ongoing evaluations of the recoverability of its capitalized internal use software and Web site by comparing the amount capitalized for each module or component of software to their estimated net realizable values.  If such evaluations indicate that the unamortized costs exceed the net realizable values, the Company writes off the amount by which the unamortized costs exceed the net realizable values.  At March 31, 2008 and 2007, no such write-offs were required.

At March 31, 2008, the net book value of capitalized software was $1,358,332.  Amortization expense for the periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was $842 and $1,798, respectively.

(L)    Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt. At March 31, 2008, the gross amount of deferred financing costs was $1,299,183 and related accumulated amortization was $873,539.  At March 31, 2008 the Company reflects in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet net deferred financing costs of $425,644.  Amortization of deferred financing costs was $143,128 and $144,452 at March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

MARCH 31, 2008
 
(M)    Revenue Recognition

The Company follows the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 for revenue recognition.  In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The following policies reflect specific criteria for the various revenue streams of the Company:

(1)    ATM's and Credit Cards

Fees earned from ATM and credit card advances are recorded on the date of transaction.

(2)    Check Cashing

Revenue is recorded from fees on check cashing services on the date the check is cashed.  If a customer's check is returned by the bank on which it is drawn, the full amount of the check is charged as bad debt loss. The check is subsequently resubmitted to the bank for payment.  If the bank honors it, the amount of the check is recognized as a negative bad debt expense.  Based on the quick turnaround of the check being returned by the bank on which it is drawn and the resubmission to the bank for payment, the Company feels this method approximates the allowance method, which is a Generally Accepted Accounting Principle.  Based upon past history no allowance was considered necessary at March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

(3)    Deferred Revenue
 
In December 2007, the Company licensed its internally developed transaction management system, OnSwitch™, to a customer.  The Company has received deposits of $915,705 of which $722,655 are recorded as deferred revenue until the software is fully installed and operational, and $193,050 has been recorded as revenue from Hardware Fees for equipment sold to the customer.  The Company expects to recognize the remaining deferred revenue in the second quarter of 2008.

(N)    Cost of Revenues

The cost of revenues primarily includes commissions paid, non management wages, employee benefits, bad debts, rents paid to contract lessors, transaction processing costs, cash replenishment fees, non-capitalizable operating lease fees for ATM's and repairs and maintenance of ATM's.

MARCH 31, 2008
 
(O)    Advertising

In accordance with Accounting Standards Executive Committee Statement of Position 93-7, ("SOP 93-7") costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising of the Company, are charged to operations as incurred.  Advertising expense for the periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were $3,197 and $12,903, respectively.

(P)    Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("Statement 109").  Under Statement 109, deferred tax assets and  liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences  attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period, which includes the enactment date.

(Q)    Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosures of information about the fair value of certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value.  For purpose of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation.

The carrying amounts of the Company's short-term financial  instruments, including  accounts  receivable,  accounts payable and accrued  expenses, commissions payable, notes payable, convertible notes payable, net of debt discount, line of credit and due to related party approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

(R)    Earnings per Share

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.  128, "Earnings per Share", basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) less preferred dividends for the period by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) less preferred dividends by the weighted average number of shares outstanding including the effect of share equivalents.  Common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of certain common stock purchase warrants, stock options, and convertible preferred stock. The Company has excluded these common share equivalents from its computation of earnings per share due to their antidilutive effect as the Company has reflected a net loss at March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Accordingly, the basic and diluted EPS are the same.

At March 31, 2008 and 2007 there were 12,738,280 and 10,476,336 shares of issuable common stock underlying the options, warrants and convertible debt securities, respectively.

(S)    Stock Based Compensation

The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," under the modified prospective method.  SFAS No. 123(R) eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value method prescribed under APB Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method.  Under the modified prospective method, the Company is required to recognize compensation cost for share-based payment to employees based on their grant date fair value from the beginning of the fiscal period in which the recognition provisions are first applied.
 
During the first three months of 2008 and 2007, the Company granted 0 and 1,265,000 options, respectively to employees that were accounted for pursuant to SFAS No. 123(R).
 
During the first three months of  2008 and 2007, the Company granted 0 and 900,000 warrants, respectively to non-employees that were accounted for pursuant to SFAS No. 123(R) and 123.
 
See detailed discussion of stock based compensation in Note 7.

Litigation

On or about August 28, 2007 , The Campo Band of Kumeyaay Indians d/b/a The Golden Acorn Casino (the "Casino"), commenced an Arbitration proceeding before the JAMS Arbitration service in San Diego.  In its Demand for Arbitration, the Casino alleged that Money Centers of America, Inc. ("MCA") breached its Financial Services Agreement with the Casino.  The Casino sought damages in excess of $950,000.  MCA filed a counterclaim alleging the Casino wrongfully terminated the Financial Services Agreement almost three years prior to the conclusion of its contractually agreed upon renewal term.  On April 29, 2008 the Arbitrator issued an Interim Award finding that the Band breached the Financial Services Agreement and awarded MCA $716,706 on its counterclaim.  The Interim Award also found that in addition to the $922,827 that MCA stipulated was owed to the Casino, it must pay prejudgment interest in the amount of $128,380, for a total of $1,051,207.  The Interim Award is not yet final because the Arbitrator is still considering whether either party is entitled to recover its arbitration costs (not to include any attorneys’ fees).

CUSTOMER CONCENTRATIONS
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2008, approximately 65% of total revenues were derived from operations at two full service casinos.  Two other customers represented approximately 19% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

10.
CASH RENTAL PROGRAM AND RELATED INTEREST EXPENSE

Included in interest expense are monies owed to an unrelated vendor for interest charges.  The interest is based on the amount of cash in the Company’s Available Money ATM machines and network and is calculated on a daily basis.  The balance of this cash funded by the bank in the Company’s ATM machines at March 31, 2008 was approximately $879,000.  The interest rate on the $879,000 is prime minus 5/8.  Effectively the Company rents this cash.  The Company does not reflect this cash as an asset or the loan as a liability on its balance sheet at March 31, 2008.  Interest expense from this cash was $25,447 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

GOING CONCERN

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has a working capital deficit of $10,481,593, a stockholders' deficit of $8, 201,514 and an accumulated deficit of $25,150,640 at March 31, 2008.  The Company also reflected a net loss of $750,302 and net cash used in operations of $114,338, for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is in the process of implementing its business plan.  Additionally, management is actively seeking additional sources of capital, but no assurance can be made that capital will be available on reasonable terms.  Management believes the actions it is taking allow the Company to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In April 2008, the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate 400,000 options of the Company’s common stock to its Board of Directors.  The options have an exercise price of $0.01.

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations, financial condition and liquidity should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.  These statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  These principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and related liabilities.  On a going forward basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the result of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
History
 
We are a single source provider of cash access services to the gaming industry.  We combine advanced technology with personalized customer services to deliver ATM, credit card advance, POS debit card advance, Check Cashing Services and CreditPlus marker services on an outsourcing basis to casinos, license our OnSwitchtransaction management system to casinos and merchant card processing.
 
We were formed as a Delaware corporation in 1997.  Prior to March 2001, we were a development company focusing on the completion of a Point of Sale ("POS") transaction management system for the gaming industry.  In March 2001, we commenced operations with the launch of the POS system at the Paragon Casino in Marksville, LA.
 
Current Overview
 
Our core business of providing single source full service cash access services in the gaming industry continues to be the major source of our revenue and profits in 2008.  We have also launched several new services in the last 30 months, such as OnSwitch and Omni Network that have helped to differentiate our product offering in the marketplace.  Our core business generates revenues from transaction fees associated with each unique service we provide, including ATMs, credit card advances, POS Debit, check cashing, markers and various other financial instruments.  We receive our fees from either the casino operator or the consumer who is requesting access to their funds.  The pricing of each transaction type is determined by evaluating risk and costs associated with the transaction in question.  Accordingly, our transaction fees have a profit component built into them.  Furthermore, reimbursement for electronic transactions are guaranteed by the credit or debit networks and associations that process the transactions as long as procedures are followed, thereby reducing the period of time that trade accounts receivable are outstanding to several days.

We deployed our OnSwitchTM Transaction Management System (OnSwitchTM) internally in January 2006 and have been marketing it to casinos.  In our view, there were two hurdles to the first sales.  First, no company has ever offered a product to the casino market like OnSwitchTM,, which allows the casino to actually control their own cash access.  We cleared this barrier when we sold our first OnSwitchTM in December 2007 to the Rolling Hills Casino.  Secondly, prospective casino customers want to see OnSwitchTM “live” and in operation in a casino.  MCA expects to clear this barrier in the second quarter of 2008 when we have fully deployed OnSwitchTM at the Rolling Hills Casino.  We have several casinos far along in the OnSwitchTM sales process and we believe that once we have OnSwitchTM fully deployed at the Rolling Hills Casino, we will obtain additional OnSwitchTM  commitments shortly thereafter.
 
Companies providing cash access services to the gaming industry face some unique challenges and opportunities in the next ten years.  Many companies in the industry have merged, been acquired or have recapitalized in order to capitalize on the trends identified in the gaming industry.
 
Historically, providers of cash access services to the gaming industry had cash flow margins that were generally higher than those experienced in the funds transfer and processing industries.  Growing competition and the maturing of the market has resulted in a decline in these margins as companies have begun marketing their services based on price rather than innovation or value added services.  This trend is highlighted by the number of companies that promote revenue growth and an increased account base but experience little increase in net income.  This trend is magnified by the fact that the largest participant in the industry has close to 81% market share and has begun to forgo margin in order to retain business.  Companies that can adapt to the changing market and can create innovative products and services stand at the forefront of a new wave in revenue and profit growth.
 
Substantially all gaming facilities provide ATM services, credit card cash advances, debit, and/or check cashing services to their customers.  Services are typically outsourced and provided on an exclusive basis for an average of two to five years.  Each year, approximately 400 accounts totaling $300 million in revenue are put out to bid.  Currently there are five major companies, including us, that have proprietary systems to compete for this business.  Although this market has matured from a pricing perspective, the demand for the services from the end user is still strong.
 
Like most maturing markets, the companies that succeed are those that are capable of reinventing themselves and the markets they serve.  We believe that smaller gaming properties will always look to have cash access services provided in the traditional manner.  However, there are several major trends occurring in the gaming industry that will have a major impact on our industry and will determine which companies emerge as industry leaders:
 
 
1.
Consolidation of major casino companies that will put pressure on other major casino companies to follow suit and will put pressure on smaller casino companies to focus on service and value added amenities in order to compete.
 
The trend towards consolidation of the major gaming companies has continued and will make it difficult to continue to offer our services in the traditional manner.  The economics are too compelling for the gaming operators not to consider internalizing these operations in order to generate additional revenue and profits to service the debt associated with the consolidation.  Our preparation has continued to position us to capitalize on this trend.  We have prepared for this change and have already begun to offer our systems and services through licensing OnSwitch , our transaction management system.  In addition to outsourcing the cash services operations, we now offer turn-key processing capabilities for internal use by the casino.  This means casinos will license our technology so they can operate and maintain their own cash access services, including the addition of their merchant card processing.  Our size makes us uniquely capable of adapting to this change.  Though the license agreements do not have the same revenue potential as a traditional cash services contract, the net income derived from these agreements is higher, the user agreements are for a longer period of time and we do not have the same capital expenditures or vault cash requirements that we experience in performing traditional cash access services.  Furthermore, our larger competitors have spent years trying to conceal the economic benefits of this type of offering because their large infrastructure is designed to only support an outsourced solution.

The first major casino company to remove coins from the casino floor was Caesars Palace in Atlantic City, NJ.  Since then, slot machine manufacturers have developed a technology that prints and accepts bar-coded tickets at the slot machine instead of accepting or dispensing coins.  It was originally anticipated that it would take 10-15 years for the industry to fully adopt this technology.  It appears it may only take half this amount of time.  This presents a problem to casino operators.  They now have tens of thousands of bar-coded tickets a day that need to be redeemed for cash.  This has paved the way for self-service ticket redemption technology so customers do not have to go to the casino cage in order to redeem their tickets.  The initial ticket redemption machines placed in service have proven to be too big and too expensive.  Most casino operators have to wait until budget season to appropriate the necessary funds in order to even consider the acquisition of the required equipment.  We believe this functionality will ultimately reside on the ATM machine thus eliminating the requirement to purchase new equipment and eliminating the need to remove a slot machine to make room for a stand-alone ticket redemption device.  We are developing technology that will allow ticket-redemption functionality on our cash access devices.  There is still the problem of security with the bar-coded ticket, which is as good as cash.  Many casino operators will refuse to allow vendors to handle the tickets for security and fraud concerns.  This is an additional economic benefit of our plan to have the casino operator internalize their cash access services because only the casino's personnel will handle the tickets in the situations where they are licensing our services.

Execution of long-term and stable compacts for Native American casinos in numerous state jurisdictions has made traditional capital more readily available paving the way for a new wave of expansion and the resulting need for new sources of revenue and customer amenities.
 
Recent shortfalls in state budgets have brought the tribal and state governments together to execute long-term compacts that meet the financial needs of both parties.  In recent years, California, Arizona, New Mexico and Wisconsin are just a few examples of this development.  The added financial stability for Native American casinos has made traditional capital more readily available to tribes, leading many tribes to undertake expansion of casino facilities and operations.
 
In order to support this expansion, Native American casino operators will seek new sources of revenues and new amenities to attract and retain more quality customers.  One of the most critical customer amenities in casino operations is the availability of credit.  Traditional gaming markets, such as Las Vegas and Atlantic City, rely on credit issuance for up to 40% of their revenues.  These markets issue credit internally and rely on specialized credit reporting in their risk management decisions.  Significant capital investment in technology is required for these transactions to be executed efficiently.  However, within the $15 billion dollar Native American Gaming market there are virtually no credit services currently available.  Approximately 26 of 29 states that have approved Native American Gaming do not allow Native American tribes or their respective casinos to issue credit.  The lack of credit play is also due to the lack of a third party credit issuer that is capable of facilitating the transactions.  Our CreditPlus platform allows Native American casinos to issue credit to players, providing Native American casinos with a guest amenity that is already widely accepted in traditional jurisdictions.  Our ability to convert this market opportunity into revenue is largely dependent on the success of our sales efforts in educating casinos in the Native American Gaming market regarding the advantages of CreditPlus and its compliance with the regulatory requirements.
 
Our Cash Services Host Program is uniquely aimed at capitalizing on the need for new profitable guest amenities.  Where most guest amenities require additional expenses, this service helps the casino operator generate more revenues.  This service allows customers to facilitate cash access transactions from the slot machine or gaming table.  Our hosts are available to bring the transaction to the guest, which is viewed as a valuable customer amenity, while driving more money to the gaming floor for the casino operator.
 
Organic growth through sales by internal salespeople is usually the most efficient and profitable growth strategy in the cash services business.  Much of our historical growth has occurred in this manner.  We realize that recognizing industry trends is no assurance of success.  We have also complimented our internal sales strategy by creating relationships with independent sales organizations that have established relationships with gaming operators nationwide.  Although our sales commissions will be higher at gaming establishments entered through this sales channel, we will not be burdened with the up-front salary, travel and entertainment costs associated with the traditional internal sales approach.
 
19

This parallel strategy of sales and product development is capital intensive and presents substantial risk.  There is no guarantee that we will be able to manage all three strategies effectively.
 
We believe that it is necessary to increase our working capital position so that we can capitalize on the profitable trends in the industry while maintaining and servicing our current customer base and integrating acquired operations such as Available Money, Inc. (“Available Money”), which we acquired in April of 2004.  Without sufficient working capital, we would be forced to utilize working capital to support revenue growth at the expense of executing on our integration and conversion plans.  This would result in substantially higher operating costs without the assurance of additional revenues to support such costs.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
In presenting our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein.  Several of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events.  However, events that are outside of our control cannot be predicted and, as such, they cannot be contemplated in evaluating such estimates and assumptions.  If there is a significant unfavorable change to current conditions, it will likely result in a material adverse impact to our consolidated results of operations, financial position and in liquidity.  We believe that the estimates and assumptions we used when preparing our financial statements were the most appropriate at that time.  Presented below are those accounting policies that we believe require subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results.
 
Revenue Recognition.  In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.  The following policies reflect specific criteria for our various revenue streams:
 
ATMs and Credit Cards.  Fees earned from ATM and credit card advances are recorded on the date of transaction.
 
Check Cashing:  Revenue is recorded from the fees on check cashing services on the date the check is cashed.  If a customer’s check is returned by the bank on which it is drawn, the full amount of the check is charged as bad debt expense.  The check is subsequently resubmitted to the bank for payment.  If the bank honors it, the amount of the check is recognized as negative bad debt expense.
 
Check Cashing Bad Debt.  The principal source of bad debts that we experience are due to checks presented by casino patrons that are ultimately returned by the drawer's bank for insufficient funds.  We account for these check cashing bad debts on a cash basis.  Fees charged for check cashing are recorded as income on the date the check is cashed.  If a check is returned by the bank on which it is drawn, we charge the full amount of the check as a bad debt expense.  If the bank subsequently honors the check, we recognize the amount of the check as a negative bad debt.  Based on the quick turnaround of the check being returned by the bank on which it is drawn and our resubmission to the bank for payment, we feel this method approximates the allowance method, which is a Generally Accepted Accounting Principle.
 
Goodwill and Long-Lived Intangible Assets.  The carrying value of goodwill as well as other long-lived intangible assets such as contracts with casinos is reviewed if the facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired.  With respect to contract rights in particular, which have defined terms, this will result in an annual adjustment based on the remaining term of the contract.  If this review indicates that the assets will not be recoverable, as determined based on our discounted estimated cash flows over the remaining amortization period, then the carrying values of the assets are reduced to their estimated fair values.  Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill And Other Intangible Assets" which eliminates amortization of goodwill and certain other intangible assets and requires annual testing for impairment.  The calculation of fair value includes a number of estimates and assumptions, including projections of future income and cash flows, determining remaining contract periods and the choice of an appropriate discount rate.  In our experience, forecasts of cash flows based on historical results are relatively dependable.  We use the remaining contract term for estimating contract periods, which may vary from actual experience due to early terminations that cannot be forecast.  We use our current cost of funds, which is a variable rate, as the discount rate.  Use of a higher discount rate would have the effect of reducing the calculated fair value, while use of a lower rate would increase the calculated fair value.  In connection with the acquisition of Available Money (our only acquired reporting unit), goodwill was allocated based on the excess of the final purchase price over the value of the acquired contract rights, determined as described above.
 
20

Stock Based Compensation.  Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," under the modified prospective method.  SFAS No. 123(R) eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value method prescribed under APB Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method.  Under the modified prospective method, the Company is required to recognize compensation cost for share-based payment to employees based on their grant date fair value from the beginning of the fiscal period in which the recognition provisions are first applied.  For periods prior to adoption, the financial statements are unchanged, and the pro forma disclosures previously required by SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, will continue to be required under SFAS No. 123(R) to the extent those amounts differ from those in the Statement of Operations.

Our net loss decreased by approximately $473,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to a decrease  in non cash compensation.
 
Our revenues as a whole increased by approximately 10% during the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007. The Money Centers portfolio (consisting primarily of full-service casino contracts) increased 14% or $262,075.  We lost approximately $38,000 in revenues from the loss of contracts in the 4th quarter 2007.  We had the addition of $120,000 in revenues from new contracts, while the remaining Money Centers casinos same store sales remained relatively unchanged from same quarter last year.  We also had the addition of $193,050 in revenues from the sale of hardware to our OnSwitch™ customer. The Available Money portfolio (consisting of ATM contracts) decreased 14% or $43,945 due to termination of contracts.
 
21

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $6,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to an increase in legal fees, offset by a decrease in trade shows and a decrease in other expenses. 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
There were no off-balance sheet arrangements during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2008 that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to our investors.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
    (485,262 )     (583,637 )     98,375  
 
Net cash used in operations decreased by approximately $365,000, primarily due to an increase in deferred revenue in the form of deposits from a casino customer for the licensing of OnSwitch™, offset by an increase in the prepayment of expenses associated with that same sale of OnSwitch™, and an increase in payment of accounts payable.
 
Net cash used in investing activities increased during the three months ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to increased investment in our Postilion platform for OnSwitchTM in the first quarter of 2008.
 
Net cash used in financing activities decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to reductions in the utilization of short-term lines of credit.
 
A significant portion of our existing indebtedness is a $5,040,864 term loan from Baena Advisors, LLC.  This loan bears interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 13%, payable monthly, and is due February 28, 2009.  Under the terms of this loan, we are required to maintain a minimum level of cash and cash equivalents  of not less than $5,500,000 on a 30-day average basis and not less than $5,000,000 at any one time.  We currently are not in compliance with this covenant at all times.  As a result, Baena has the right, which it has not exercised, to demand payment of the principal balance of the loan.
 
In addition, two of our casino customers provide vault cash lines of credit for our activities at their casinos.  These facilities are unsecured and bear interest rates ranging from zero to approximately 3.25%.  Our debt is used primarily to provide vault cash for our casino operations.  Vault cash for our ATM operations at locations where we do not provide full cash access services (primarily Available Money customers) is provided by our ATM processing provider under the terms of the ATM processing agreement, at a cost equal to the ATM processor’s cost of funds, which currently is Prime minus 5/8%.
 
On June 1, 2007, we borrowed $9,000 from a family member of our chief executive officer.  The note bears interest at 8% per annum and is payable monthly, beginning June 1, 2007.
 
22

Though we anticipate our operating profits will be sufficient to meet our current obligations under our credit facilities, if we become unable to satisfy these obligations, then our business may be adversely affected as Baena and Mercantile will have the right to sell our assets to satisfy any outstanding indebtedness that we are unable to repay.
 
We also have a substantial amount of accounts payable and accrued expenses.  To the extent that we are unable to satisfy these obligations as they come due, we risk the loss of services from our vendors and possible lawsuits seeking collection of amounts due.
 
Our goal is to change the way our customers view cash access services by transforming the way casinos find, serve and retain their customers.  We will strive to assist our customers by continuing to grow and improve everything we do.  We require significant capital to meet these objectives.  Our capital requirements are as follows:
 
·
Equipment:  Each new account requires hardware at the location level and some additions to network infrastructure at our central server farm.
 
·
Vault Cash:  All contracts in which we provide full service money centers and ATM accounts for which we are responsible for cash replenishment require vault cash.  Vault cash is the money necessary to fund the float that exists when we pay money to patrons but have yet to be reimbursed from the Debit, Credit Card Cash Advance, or ATM networks for executing the transactions.
 
·
Acquisition Financing:  We presently have no cash for use in completing additional acquisitions.  To the extent that we cannot complete acquisitions through the use of our equity securities, we will need to obtain additional indebtedness or seller financing in order to complete such acquisitions.
 
·
Working Capital:  We will require substantial working capital to pay the costs associated with our expanding employee base and to service our growing base of customers.
 
·
Technology Development:  We will continue to incur development costs related to the design and development of our new products and related technology.  We presently do not have an internal staff of engineers or software development experts and have outsourced this function to IntuiCode, LLC, a company operated by Jeremy Stein, a member of our Board of Directors.
 
We are actively seeking various sources of growth capital and strategic partnerships that will assist us in achieving our business objectives.  We are also exploring various potential financing options and other sources of working capital.  There is no assurance that we will succeed in finding additional sources of capital on favorable terms or at all.  To the extent that we cannot find additional sources of capital, we may be delayed in fully implementing our business plan.
 
We do not pay and do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock.  We believe it to be in the best interest of our stockholders to invest all available cash in the expansion of our business.
 
Due to our accumulated deficit of $25,150,640 as of March 31, 2008 and our net losses and cash used in operations of $750,302 and $114,338, respectively, for the period ended March 31, 2008, our independent auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  While we believe that our present plan of operations will be profitable and will generate positive cash flow, there is no assurance that we will generate net income or positive cash flow for 2008 or at any time in the future.

Item 4T - Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As of March 31, 2008, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including Christopher M. Wolfington, our Chief Executive Officer and Jason P. Walsh, our Chief Financial Officer.  Based upon that evaluation, Mr. Wolfington and Mr. Walsh concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
 
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Controls
 
There were no significant changes in our internal controls or, to our knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect our disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the date we carried out this evaluation

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
 
On or about August 28, 2007 , The Campo Band of Kumeyaay Indians d/b/a The Golden Acorn Casino (the "Casino"), commenced an Arbitration proceeding before the JAMS Arbitration service in San Diego.  In its Demand for Arbitration, the Casino alleged that Money Centers of America, Inc. ("MCA") breached its Financial Services Agreement with the Casino.  The Casino sought damages in excess of $950,000.  MCA filed a counterclaim alleging the Casino wrongfully terminated the Financial Services Agreement almost three years prior to the conclusion of its contractually agreed upon renewal term.  On April 29, 2008 the Arbitrator issued an Interim Award finding that the Band breached the Financial Services Agreement and awarded MCA $716,706 on its counterclaim.  The Interim Award also found that in addition to the $922,827 that MCA stipulated was owed to the Casino, it must pay prejudgment interest in the amount of $128,380, for a total of $1,051,207.  The Interim Award is not yet final because the Arbitrator is still considering whether either party is entitled to recover its arbitration costs (not to include any attorneys’ fees).
 
In addition, we are, from time to time during the normal course of our business operations, subject to various litigation claims and legal disputes. We do not believe that the ultimate disposition of any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

None.
 
Item 3 - Defaults Upon Senior Securities
 
As of March 31, 2008 we are in default under the December 28, 2006 Credit and Security Agreement with Baena Advisors, LLC as the result of our failure to maintain the required minimum borrowing base.  We have made all required payments under the Credit and Security Agreement and the lender has not taken any action with respect to the default.
