Montana Lottery and Intralot extend 20-year partnership with third lottery contract

The new agreement spans seven years and includes three one-year extension options in the hopes of ensuring a ‘fully modernized solution’ for nearly 1,300 retailers across Montana.

The Montana Lottery and Intralot SA’s US subsidiary have agreed to expand upon its 20-year partnership after coming to terms on a new contract that will see the supplier provide Montana Lottery with a next-generation operating system and related services, as well as continued support for its Sports Bet Montana wagering product. 

“We are very pleased to extend our business relationship with Intralot, a company that has been our partner for nearly two decades. This new contract ensures our lottery system remains modern and secure, allowing us to provide our retailers and players with the best possible experience,” Montana Lottery Director Bob Brown said. 

“The LotosX Omni solution and new retail technology will be a game-changer, helping us to deliver an even more engaging experience for our players and continue to generate important revenue for the STEM scholarship program and for the State of Montana.”

The new agreement spans seven years and includes three one-year extension options in the hopes of ensuring a “fully modernized solution” for nearly 1,300 retailers across Montana.

The supplier is also set to design and provide an enhanced retail network infrastructure featuring PhotonX retailer terminals and peripherals, self-service terminals and multi-product vending machines.

“We are honored to enter our third contract with the Montana Lottery and continue to partner with the Lottery as it embarks on its next phase of growth. With this new agreement, Intralot is bringing fresh resources, expanded expertise and state-of-the-art technology to reset and strengthen our local presence in Montana,” Intralot CEO Richard Bateson said. 

“At the heart of this transformation is our LotosX platform, a modular, microservices-based system that accelerates time to market, enables player-centric innovation and delivers enhanced security and player protection through a proven and future-ready architecture.”

The new contract follows a “competitive Request For Proposal procurement process” and represents the third contract agreed upon between Intralot and the Montana Lottery.
