SG celebrates PA lottery $1bn hit

Scientific Games has congratulated the Pennsylvania Lottery on the most commercially successful ilottery online/mobile launch in North America to date as total sales for the popular digital lottery games hit the $1bn mark shortly before the programme’s two-year anniversary.

Significantly surpassing any previous North American ilottery launch in history, the programme launched and managed by Scientific Games is also on track to top $1bn in sales annually.

“Our goal in offering our players the option for online/mobile play in May 2018 was simply to meet players where they are, which is online, and it has been exceptionally wel received,” said Drew Svitko, executive director of the Pennsylvania Lottery.

“During this unprecedented time, we are reminding lottery players that they have the option to take advantage of playing PA Lottery online games at pailottery.com.

“This is the only place where PA Lottery players can buy their Powerball and Mega Millions tickets without having to leave their homes. This is also another way people can support older Pennsylvanians during this challenging time.”
