CHRIMS is unique in that it provides a complete processing service. Unlike similar products which offer only software and tools for processing your own data, CHRIMS provides a team of highly seasoned personnel to process your data for you.
On a daily basis, CHRIMS’ experienced data technicians download all available and necessary TRA settlement files and verify handle figures in comparison to files and reports from the various totalisator providers. The CHRIMS systems acquires this pari-mutuel data, and not only reconciles and balances those figures, but also performs any necessary distributions.
Data is processed and available by 10:00 AM in every time zone the day after racing.
CHRIMS maintains personnel and processing seven days a week, 364 days a year (we are only closed on Christmas Day). As a valued customer, you have 24/7 access to trained and experienced pari-mutuel data technicians year round. This provides protection for your pari-mutuel accounting operations against personnel issues like illness, resignations, etc. The CHRIMS team has years of experience working with all tote companies, all account wagering companies and managing all operational issues.
The CHRIMS system has cut down on processing time by 16-20 hours per day. Every morning our handle is loaded and waiting. With all of the reporting features, we can analyze data and utilize our time wisely. Our AR aging has decreased and our Cash Flow has never been better.

I have been a user of CHRIMS since its inception. It used to be that I'd have to input daily data in order to even begin to analyze our results. The ease with which I can sort through information in CHRIMS has made analysis a much timelier possibility.

Data is readily available, our Accounts Receivable processing has been incredibly streamlined, and there are literally no settlement issues. The CHRIMS staff is always helpful, and even with the West Coast time differential they seem to be always available. Keeneland prides itself in being a leader in Thoroughbred racing, and the association with CHRIMS certainly helps to maintain that status.

CHRIMS – PGSI has been a strategic solutions provider to The Stronach Group and AmTote for over 10 years. Our most recent project with CHRIMS-PGSI is the implementation of their pari-mutuel settlement and distribution system for all TSG properties. This has enabled us to create a unified view of net settlement and money room shift between us and all the host and guest communities that we interact with, and CHRIMS-PGSI has done a great job in working with us during this complex and challenging project.
