Scientific Games extends partnership with Arizona Lottery

The current lottery technology in Arizona went live in 2016, with the company having executed nearly 40 lottery system implementations and conversions since that time.
Scientific Games and the Arizona Lottery have announced that the two will continue its partnership that has been in effect for around eight years. The new agreement includes an additional three years under the company’s existing contract, with an option to add more years as part of the extension terms.
The company will modernize the Lottery for its next era of profit growth by providing an upgraded, advanced central gaming system, as well as next-generation vending operated by SCiQ technology.
“Scientific Games has been a trusted partner of the Arizona Lottery for 43 years and we are proud to continue our partnership into the coming years,” Arizona Lottery CEO Alec Thomson said.
“As industry leaders in central gaming system operations for lotteries across the US and the world, Scientific Games will continue to support the Arizona Lottery in driving meaningful impact for Arizona communities through ticket sales.”
The current Scientific Games systems technology in Arizona went live in 2016, and the company has executed nearly 40 lottery system implementations and conversions since then. Over the past eight years, the company’s systems technology has shown a 73% growth in Arizona Lottery’s total sales.
“We started with the Arizona Lottery at its beginning with the launch of the instant product portion of their business and have supported them for the last eight years with our lottery gaming system technology, which has served the Lottery very well,” Scientific Games President of Americas & Global Instant Products John Schulz said.
“Our teams and technologists have worked hard to build a strong partnership with the Lottery through service excellence and continually modernizing the technology that supports its sales, ultimately driving maximum funding for good cause programs in Arizona.”
Scientific Games serves the Arizona Lottery in Phoenix, where the company’s teams of marketing, analytics and technology, along with its central system, software and data center operations are currently housed.
Scientific Games has provided the Arizona Lottery with Scratchers since its inception in 1981, and helps support all 3,500 Lottery retailers in the state.
