International Game Technology (IGT) has signed a three-year contract extension with the Missouri Lottery, continuing the partnership until June 30, 2025.
As part of the deal, the Missouri Lottery will aid in launching IGT’s well-known Cash Pop draw game. IGT will also release 175 new cashless GameTouch 28 self-service vending machines, bringing growth to the Lottery’s retailer base.
"The Missouri Lottery has trusted IGT and its industry-leading innovations to help responsibly grow our sales and fund public education in the state for more than 30 years," said May Scheve Reardon, Missouri Lottery Executive Director.
"Including Cash Pop in our game portfolio is the latest example of how IGT has continually guided us through the evolving lottery industry. This exciting new game will allow our players to customize their game play for personalized experiences unlike any other on the market. Additionally, expanding our retailer base with IGT's GameTouch 28 vending machines will provide more convenience to our players."
The company's subsidiary, IGT Global Solutions Corporation, has been a long-time partner of the Missouri Lottery. The brand has been the state’s primary technology supplier since 1991.
Jay Gendron, IGT Global Lottery COO, said: "IGT applauds the Missouri Lottery for its continued forward-looking approach to ensure its players have access to the most entertaining lottery products and games.
"IGT's cashless GameTouch vending machines and patented Cash Pop game are best-in-class solutions that draw upon our decades of industry leadership and are designed for the next generation of players. We look forward to helping the Lottery continue to maximize its funds toward public education over the next few years."
