Instant Win Gaming (IWG), a leading supplier of eInstant games to NASPL and WLA-member lotteries, has relaunched with the Georgia Lottery Corporation following the successful integration of its InstantRGS (remote game server) with IGT’s iLottery platform.
The move further strengthens the long-term relationship between IWG and IGT with the Georgia Lottery Corporation, and most importantly its players, set to benefit from IWG’s pipeline of InstantGames innovations that will complement the eInstant portfolio being supplied by IGT.
IWG’s popular Cash Expander game was the first eInstant delivered. The Georgia Lottery Corporation version has been localized to be specifically familiar to Georgia players.
The Georgia Lottery Corporation launch marks IWG’s second integration with IGT for a United States lottery having previously partnered to supply eIntant games to the Kentucky Lottery. In addition, IWG and IGT have previously worked together to supply eInstants to the Belgium National Lottery.
“It’s fantastic to have relaunched our eInstants in Georgia, a move that will further strengthen the Georgia Lottery Corporation’s Diggi Games offering and provide players with the very latest in eInstant entertainment,” the Chief Executive Officer for IWG, Rhydian Fisher, said. “We’re excited for the future ahead with the Georgia Lottery Corporation and our supply of games for its players.”
“The Georgia Lottery Corporation is excited to introduce IWG’s InstantGames to our valued players,” the President and Chief Executive Officer for the Georgia Lottery Corporation, Gretchen Corbin, said. “These new games will complement our current Diggi Games offerings, bringing players new and exciting experiences. Our Diggi Games contribute to the Georgia Lottery Corporation’s mission of providing revenues for the purpose of funding Georgia’s Pre-K and the HOPE Scholarship programs. Our corporation appreciates this collaboration with IWG and IGT to help us grow this important category of games.”
