Scientific Games Corporation and the Montana Lottery have extended their existing five-year instant “scratch” games contract for two years through August 2022.
The Montana Lottery is consistently one of the first lotteries to implement product enhancements from Scientific Games, including specialty papers, finishes and inks, and holography, in addition to products with more chances to play and win, such as two-sided play.
“We look forward to strengthening our current Montana Scratch offering with more new games that entertain players and responsibly drive state funding to benefit all Montanans,” said Angela Wong, Director of the Montana Lottery.
Scientific Games has served as a provider for the Montana Lottery since its inception in 1987 and was selected as the its sole instant-games provider to help drive maximum proceeds to the state of Montana. The Lottery’s proceeds support the Montana STEM Scholarship Program and the General Fund.
“The Montana Lottery has always been a leader in launching scratch games that feature our newest manufacturing techniques and licensed brands. They are typically one of the first lotteries in the U.S. to try innovative approaches to traditional instant games, and we are honored by the trust they continue to place in our Company for more than 30 years,” said John Schulz, Senior VP Instant Products for Scientific Games.
