NeoPollard Interactive Congratulates Virginia Lottery for Launching Cloud-based iLottery Program
NeoPollard Interactive LLC, jointly owned by Pollard Banknote Limited and NeoGames S.A., has congratulated the Virginia Lottery for launching the first cloud-based iLottery program in the US.
The iLottery system uses a number of Neo-based technologies, including NeoDraw, NeoSphere, and NeoPlay.
Doug Pollard, Co-CEO of NeoPollard Interactive, said: “We recognise the need to continually refine our offerings based on emerging and evolving technology. Delivering our iLottery solution through the cloud will enable us to better serve the Virginia Lottery and other iLottery programs that are powered by NPi. We value the trust the Virginia Lottery placed in us to deliver this innovative solution.”
NeoPollard has supported Virginia Lottery’s iLottery program since its initial launch of eSubscriptions in 2016.
Moti Malul, Co-CEO of NeoPollard Interactive, said: “Record-breaking jackpots over the last few years have generated significant traffic online, underscoring the need for iLottery programs to effectively respond to player purchase demand. By harnessing the enhanced capabilities that only cloud hosting provides, we can better support the growth of our lottery clients as they strive to meet and exceed player expectations.”
The Virginia Lottery can use cloud solutions to try and scale up jackpot runs, and the volumes of players that promotions and campaigns attract.
Kelly T. Gee, Executive Director of Virginia Lottery, said: “The Virginia Lottery is committed to providing a best-in-class experience to our players. Enhancing the scalability of our iLottery platform through the use of cloud technology demonstrates to our players that we place a priority on a seamless and reliable iLottery experience, all of which ultimately supports our mission to raise revenue for our public schools.”
