JACKSON, Miss. (WTOK) – The Mississippi Lottery Corporation has chosen a vendor to provide two major lottery gaming services: a central gaming system that will generate tickets for computerized raffle games and a print service for instant scratch tickets.
The MLC says it's a major operational step. The board of directors on Friday approved a contract with IGT Global Solutions Corporation.
IGT will provide a central gaming system, telecommunications, retail terminals, peripherals and other related services. In addition, they will design instant games, print tickets, provide warehousing, distribution and other related services.
The agency sees this as a crucial step for the MLC to provide
instant tickets and online drawing games such as Powerball and Mega Millions.
The MLC expects that instant gaming sales will begin no later than December 1, 2019 and that online drawing games will begin in the first quarter of 2020.
