Rush Street Interactive Incorporated and The Connecticut Lottery Corporation to Wind Down Partnership

Published

on

 

Rush Street Interactive (NYSE: RSI) and the Connecticut Lottery Corporation (CLC) today announced a joint plan to wind down their online and in-person sports betting partnership in Connecticut. The CLC will begin the process of pursing a new operator through a request for proposals in the coming days.

RSI will continue to operate online and in-person sports betting in Connecticut on behalf of the CLC until a replacement is selected. RSI and the CLC currently expect to transition the existing sports betting operations during the second half of 2023.

Players on the PlaySugarHouse.com online platform or at any of the nine Connecticut retail locations can be confident that any wagers placed will continue to be valid and all wins will continue to be paid out appropriately. RSI is continuing to work closely with the CLC to minimize any potential disruptions to players or business partners as the operation is wound down.

“We thank RSI for working closely with CLC to establish the foundation for CLC’s sports betting operation, both online and in retail,” the President of the CLC, Gregory Smith, said.

“We thank the CLC for its partnership over the last two years,” the Chief Executive Officer for RSI, Richard Schwartz, said. “We are proud of what we have accomplished together in Connecticut and have enjoyed the relationships that we have built with the players. Consistent with our long-term strategic goals, after much deliberation and discussions with the CLC, we believe it is in the best interest of RSI and our stockholders to wind down this partnership.

“As is consistent with nearly everything we do at RSI, both RSI and the CLC remain committed to putting our players first. Through the transition we plan to continue to support all player wagers and ensure a positive player experience and expect the changeover will have an immaterial impact on our guidance for 2023.”

PlaySugarHouse.com and the Connecticut retail sports betting location will continue to operate as normal until a replacement operator is found, at which point operations will be transitioned to the new operator. Players with questions can always contact RSI’s award-winning customer service 24/7 at 1-800-622-0163.

More information related to the timing of selecting a new operator and transitioning online and retail sports wagering to that operator will be shared by the CLC as details for a transition are determined.

EQL Games and Gaming Corps Announce Agreement to Deliver Innovative Gaming Solutions to State Lotteries

 

EQL Games has secured another strong content partnership with Gaming Corps, a listed innovative iGaming studio out of Sweden. With an emphasis on creating thrilling and unique adventures with mesmerizing graphics, every product Gaming Corps creates is designed to transport its players into a unique world of fun and excitement. EQL Games believes these games will be a great addition to the U.S. Lottery market knowing they’ll lead to uncharted realms of entertainment.

“Bringing Gaming Corps on as a provider to the EQL Games iLottery Aggregator represents an exciting step forward in our mission to bring unique, high-quality content to state lotteries,” said Brad Cummings, CEO of EQL Games. “Gaming Corps’ expertise in iGaming, along with their vibrant game portfolio, aligns perfectly with our vision of enhancing the lottery experience through dynamic, engaging content. Together, we’re creating new opportunities to engage lottery players with distinctive and immersive game experiences.”

Gaming Corps’ portfolio is a captivating mosaic of themes, stories, and adventures, with games designed for players across all demographics. From the mysteries of ancient civilizations to the frontiers of space exploration, the games span a diverse universe of themes that are sure to resonate with U.S. lottery players. While these products can currently be found in some of the top iGaming markets in the world, this agreement with EQL Games marks the first time their content will find a home in the lottery vertical.

“The US has always been a bit of a holy grail for game developers like us, which has been further reinforced as several state markets have been regulated,” said Juha Kauppinen, CEO of Gaming Corps. “The potential in the American market is enormous and we are thrilled to partner up with EQL Games and their impressive iLottery aggregation platform. We have high hopes that it will have a significant positive impact on our revenues. We are now working hard to make all our games available to US lotteries via the EQL Games platform.”

This is the 17th studio partner EQL Games has added in support of its lottery-only aggregator. Built specifically with the needs of government lotteries in mind, this first-of-its-kind product is about more than product distribution. The EQL Aggregator is designed to allow lotteries to enjoy content from multiple studios while only having to interact with a single point of contact. This simplifies the process of adding new content to a lottery’s digital portfolio without having to scale up operations to meet the needs of multiple studio partners. The EQL Aggregator is currently operating in lotteries across two continents and will see further expansion throughout the next year.
