Operators rally for US national and state lotteries to go digital

Operators rally for US national and state lotteries to go digital

 

From Oregan to Maryland, state lottery operators are rallying their respective officials to allow online ticket sales as a new normal of decreased retail footfall descends on towns and cities across the US. After helping many national lotteries around the world go digital over the past few months, Ade Repcenko, CEO of Spinola Gaming, believes that an upgrade to online sales is indeed the only way forward for the US lottery sector.

Lottery operators across the US are calling for their state officials to digitise the sale of tickets in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Over the last few months, only a handful of states were able to legally offer digital lottery ticket sales during their respective lockdowns: Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, North Dakota and Virginia. Many of these states revealed that they experienced a surge in online ticket sales, with New Hampshire registering a 38 percent jump in first-time online players during this period. All other states require players to purchase a lottery ticket in person from a retail outlet, and all saw sales and revenues tumble drastically during the pandemic.

Despite a determination to go digital now being shared by a majority of key lottery figures in the US, state operators still require regulatory changes to take place before they can make the shift. Unless these regulatory changes happen fast, the US market will lag behind the rest of the world, as LATAM, Africa, Asia and Australia all already possess the legal ability to sell online. The online commercialisation of US government and state lotteries is long overdue, and Covid-19 has given those in favour of digitization real tangible data to support their long-standing arguments. State lottery operators’ interest in going digital is now stronger than ever, as the pandemic clearly highlighted the severe limitations of the retail lottery business model.

Barry Pack, director of the Oregon State Lottery, stated that retailers in Oregon lost 70 percent of their customers due to the lockdown. “The recovery from this pandemic is going to force a digital transformation in our industry a whole lot more quickly than we might normally have seen it come,” he said. “When the legislature reconvenes next week, they’re facing a billion-dollar shortfall. Their opinions about mobile gaming will change. I think there will be less resistance.”

Gordon Medenica, director of the Maryland Lottery shares Pack’s views: “We’ve been pushing a digital transformation and online selling ever since I’ve been in this industry, over the past 10 to 15 years,” he said. “In Maryland, they passed a law three years ago banning sales on the internet. I think we’ll see a dramatic change and I’m looking forward to it.”

And in a Lottery Commission meeting, Massachusetts Lottery Executive Director Michael Sweeney said their lottery faced “a significant threat of becoming somewhat obsolete”.

The extreme drop in lottery sales due to the pandemic and shelter-in-place orders was also a key pain point for most participants of the SBC Digital Summit’s lottery discussion titled, “State of Play – US Lotteries During the Coronavirus.” Many state lottery veterans shared the opinion that the pandemic should be a wake-up call for lottery officials and state legislatures, with one participant stating that the pandemic exposed state lottery’s inadequate retail business model and that it might not be sufficient for the new normal. Speaking recently Ade Repecnko, CEO of Spinola Gaming, agreed with that assessment. His company has helped many national lotteries around the world go digital over the past few months, giving them a steady stream of income to sustain their operations during the pandemic.

“Retail operators need to take a look at the post-Covid19 world and its impact on player needs and expectations, and think about what it means for the future of lotteries.” said Ade Repcenko, CEO of Spinola Gaming. “Digital is the way forward and is set to play a huge part in our industry over the coming years. Solutions like the ones offered by Spinola Gaming provide land-based operators with a holistic solution that helps operators make the move to digital, while still maintaining their traditional retail operations through one seamless interface. The software allows operators to monitor all lottery ticket sales and track all online and offline purchases in real-time, complete with a myriad of marketing functions and analytics available at the touch of a button. The system is available across all markets, currencies and languages and is fully customisable.”

Esportes Gaming Brasil introduces LOTTU, its new digital betting platform focused on innovation and user experience

Published

on

Esportes Gaming Brasil has just launched LOTTU, its new digital betting and entertainment platform. Modern, bold, and interactive, the brand was created with the purpose of delivering a faster, more personalized, and more efficient experience for bettors.

With this launch, the group now operates with the maximum limit of three brands authorized by the five-year federal license granted by the Secretariat of Prizes and Betting of the Ministry of Finance (SPA/MF), as established by Law 14.790/2023. In addition to LOTTU, the portfolio includes Esportes da Sorte and OnaBet.

“LOTTU reflects everything we’ve learned in recent years, but with a real leap in performance and usability. It is a platform built from the ground up, with a focus on speed, real-time promotions, and navigation tailored to different bettor profiles,” says Darwin Henrique da Silva Filho, CEO of Esportes Gaming Brasil Group.

With proprietary architecture and a high degree of customization, LOTTU offers features that allow greater flexibility for promotions, dynamic layouts, and a smoother user journey. The applied technology expands interaction and engagement possibilities, with an emphasis on responsiveness and operational intelligence.

“The arrival of LOTTU represents more than just a portfolio expansion. It materializes a brand that combines technology, aesthetics, and dynamism to deliver a truly differentiated experience. From concept to design, every detail was crafted to connect with the modern bettor, who values agility, trust, and innovation,” highlights Marcela Campos, Vice President of Esportes Gaming Brasil.

The system also incorporates monitoring tools that proactively identify signs of risky behavior—redirecting users to specialized support channels and reinforcing the group’s commitment to responsible gaming practices.

More than expanding its portfolio, the launch of LOTTU consolidates Esportes Gaming Brasil as one of the leading groups in the sector, with a strong institutional presence in Brazil’s sports and cultural scene—through initiatives such as sponsorships of clubs like Corinthians, Ceará, Ferroviária, and Náutico, and support for regional events such as Carnival, São João, and the Parintins Festival.

NYC Mayoral Front-runner Zohran Mamdani Says He Won’t Oppose Casino Development

Published

As a state lawmaker, Zohran Mamdani generally opposed plans to open full-scale casinos in New York City. In June, when he walked past a billboard showing betting markets for the city mayor’s race, he even quipped that “gambling is haram,” an Arabic word meaning forbidden.

But on Wednesday, Mr. Mamdani said that he did not intend to use his newfound political clout as the Democratic mayoral nominee and the race’s front-runner to try to stop the arrival of casinos that are widely considered a fait accompli.

Speaking alongside the leader of a union pushing the gambling expansion, Mr. Mamdani told reporters that while he still had doubts about the casinos backed by corporate giants, he respected the views of state voters who had approved the downstate gambling expansion more than a decade ago.
