Gaming Realms has signed a four-year licensing deal with Scientific Games, extending its existing agreement.

Scientific Games, which offers games, systems and services for casino, lottery, social gaming, online gaming and sports betting has been provided exclusive rights by Gaming Realms to create and produce SLINGO-branded lottery instant scratch games, terminal generated and draw-based games; the new agreement continues this existing agreement in the North American, European, UK, New Zealand and Australian markets.

“We are delighted to extend our licensing agreement with Scientific Games, with whom we have worked very closely over the last 20 years. Our collaboration on SLINGO lottery products has proven to be very successful to date, with 550 million tickets sold valued at US$1.7 billion, and we look forward to continuing our work together for the enjoyment of players,” said Michael Buckley, the executive chairman of Gaming Realms.

Liz Johnson, the director of lottery licensed properties for Scientific Games, said: “Players love SLINGO”.

“SLINGO is perfect for extended play instant games, which have increased in sales by 26% over the past year, with retail sales of all SLINGO branded games up 87% from May 2020 to May 2021. The games also include an instant win feature for players to win an instant cash prize,” she noted.
