Intralot extends contract with Dutch Lottery operators

Intralot has signed an extended contract with Nederlandse Staatsloterij and De Lotto, the Dutch lottery operators that officially merged earlier this month. The new deal will last until April 2019, with the option to extend for an additional year.

Under the deal, Intralot will continue to supply its LOTOSTM O/S platform and related services, connected to its 5,000 proprietary terminals. The contract extension confirms the continuation of a six-year partnership between the companies, which was sealed in 2008 after a dual international tender conducted by both lotteries.

Intralot will also provide a ‘Prime and Disaster Data Centre’, a call centre facility for players and retailers, as well as other product solutions and services offered that will continue to facilitate the operations of the new merged entity.

De Nederlandse Staatsloterij and De Lotto currently offer a range of online and land-based games including a full Toto-branded sportsbook, numerical games and traditional lottery games such as Staatsloterij and Miljoenenspel.

Nikos Nikolakopoulos, Chief Operating Officer of Intralot, said: “We are very pleased to continue our excellent cooperation with the two Dutch Lotteries, which are now entering a new era, as a new merged entity.

“Intralot has managed to design and deliver unique solutions for one of the most technologically advanced projects of our sector worldwide.

“We are happy to assist both long-term customers with novel gaming solutions in their combined new operation and we appreciate their trust in our capabilities underscored by this contract renewal.”
