Nothing in this form shall be construed to imply that the Commission has verified any information contained herein.
If the notification relates to a portion of the filing checked above, identify the Item(s) to which the notification relates:
PART I — REGISTRANT INFORMATION
Global Cash Access Holdings, Inc.
 
Full Name of Registrant
 
Former Name if Applicable

3525 East Post Road, Suite 120
 
Address of Principal Executive Office (Street and Number)
Las Vegas, Nevada 89120
 
City, State and Zip Code
PART II — RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
           
þ
    (a)   The reason described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense
       
    (b)   The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and
       
      (c)   The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.
PART III — NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Although management believes the preparation of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 is substantially complete, the Registrant will be unable to file its Quarterly Report by the prescribed due date of November 9, 2007, without unreasonable effort or expense, because of a recent change in management. On October 31, 2007, the employment of Registrant’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Kirk Sanford, terminated and the employment of the Registrant’s current Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Scott Betts, commenced. This change in management has led to a delay in finalizing the unaudited financial statements to be included in such filing. In addition, in light of this change in management, the Registrant’s new management needs additional time to become familiar with the unaudited financial statements to be included in such filing.

The Registrant currently expects that the preparation and review of the unaudited financial statements to be included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 will be completed within the time provided by this Form 12b-25, at which time the Registrant would file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

SEC 1344 (05-06)   Persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB control number.
