Aristocrat Interactive seals landmark iLottery deal with Michigan Lottery
Aristocrat Interactive™, under NeoGames, US, LLP, signed a six-year contract with the Michigan Lottery to provide its full solution of iLottery product offerings, reaffirming its leadership in the U.S. iLottery industry.
Under the contract, from July 2026, Aristocrat Interactive will provide services to the Michigan Lottery for six years, with six additional one-year extension opportunities.
This new deal will provide the Michigan Lottery with eInstant games, draw-based games and add-on offerings produced by Aristocrat Interactive’s NeoGames Studio™, along with continuing to leverage the company’s iLottery technology, which includes:
- NeoSphere player account management platform
- NeoDraw draw games system
- NeoCube Business Intelligence solutions; and
- NeoEngage – Aristocrat Interactive’s overall customer and data experience solution
Aristocrat Interactive will also provide the Michigan Lottery with a new website and mobile application services with Gambyt – a software company specializing in the lottery, casino, and sports betting industries. Under the deal, Aristocrat Interactive will lead the Michigan Lottery’s CRM marketing efforts, including promotions and customer communications, and will deliver managed services including staffing, a customer service center, payments management, third-party integration, compliance, and responsible gameplay solutions.
“This collaboration is a sign of our commitment to being a leader in the iLottery space and a win for players and public education in Michigan as we look to further enhance our offerings, deliver an entertaining iLottery experience, and drive incremental revenue to the School Aid Fund,” said Suzanna Shkreli, Commissioner of the Michigan Lottery. “Aristocrat Interactive has a proven track record of providing the industry’s leading technology, comprehensive player services, and engaging content for lotteries around the world. We’re confident this new deal will help us continue to be a leading innovator in this exciting digital space.”
Michigan was one of the first states to add eInstant games to its iLottery offerings. The Michigan Lottery consistently positions itself at the forefront of U.S. iLottery’s gross sales and sales per capita.
“The Michigan Lottery is a trailblazer in the U.S. iLottery industry, and we’re proud to be a strategic partner for their business,” said Chris Shaban, Managing Director of Aristocrat Interactive iLottery. “This multi-year agreement is a testament to the proven strength of the Aristocrat Interactive platform, our commitment to innovation, and the long-term value we provide to our customers.”
This new agreement with the Michigan Lottery is Aristocrat Interactive’s second consecutive U.S. awarded contract, furthering Aristocrat Interactive’s commitment to innovative digital lottery programs and bringing its total North American iLottery customers for platform and content to eight.
