“At the National Lottery, we put our players at the centre of everything we do,” said Dermot Griffin CEO of Ireland’s National Lottery, “And in this fast-moving world, it’s important to keepup with new innovations and technologies.” “With ‘Lottery Now’, players can just call out to check what the jackpot is, when the next draw is, or to find out recent winning numbers. We are proud to launch this capability for our players.”
“Lottery instant games are an $87.5 billion a year global consumer product, including $50 billion sold in North America, and they are a major driver of consumer retail store visits. Now for the first time in the lottery industry, SCiQ offers unit-level technology that provides inventory control, security, speed-of-service, merchandising and simplified accounting functions for retailers,” said Jim Kennedy, Group Chief Executive, Lottery for Scientific Games. “SCiQ is set to revolutionize the way lottery products are sold at retail. We believe that the lottery retail environment will never be the same.”
