Gumball machine opening (4)

I believe the answer is:

slot

(Other definitions for slot that I've seen before include "Fit into puzzle" , "Space for coin or programme" , "Narrow opening, for cash say" , "Lots (anag.)" , "Hole for e.g. coin" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and the LA Times.
