Scientific Games’ SCiQ Lottery Retail Technology Launches for First Time in Europe
Scientific Games has launched the global lottery company’s SCiQ retail technology for the first time in Europe. Through the partnership with Allwyn, the operator of The National Lottery, the Scientific Games retail ecosystem has debuted at an Asda store east of Manchester, UK. Asda is the second-largest supermarket chain in the UK. SCiQ, which has proven to create efficiencies and support lottery sales in more than a dozen U.S. markets, will modernize how The National Lottery’s scratchcards are managed and purchased at retail.
SCiQ is the only technology of its kind for managing the lottery category within stores. The Scientific Games system provides retailers with a comprehensive suite of features, including touch-of-a-button store reporting, automated inventory management, real-time store-specific sales analytics and market basket performance reports. In addition to streamlined lottery category management, SCiQ offers enhanced product security and modernizes the lottery experience for the shopper with digital screens and automatic dispensing.
Christopher Allen, VP, Lottery Marketing Strategy for Scientific Games, said, “Our global technology teams continue Scientific Games’ 50+ year commitment to innovate across the lottery landscape and bring to market new, advanced technologies helping lotteries future-proof across all channels of play. We are delighted to bring our proven SCiQ retail ecosystem to our partnership with Allwyn and thrilled that Asda was the first retailer in the UK to deploy the system in-store.”
Scientific Games customized the software in accordance with Allwyn’s pioneering 10-scratchcard limit, automatically preventing Asda store staff from selecting more than 10 National Lottery Scratchcards per transaction.
Innovating for a changing retail landscape and new-look stores, Scientific Games worked with both Allwyn and Asda to customize SCiQ specifically for the customer service area of the Asda store. This is the first phase of a trial that will take several months as the technology is tested to inform any broader rollout plans in the future.
Allwyn’s Operations Director, Jenny Blogg, said, “As we continue transforming The National Lottery from the inside out, we’re deploying innovative lottery technology fit for the future. Thanks to the teams at Allwyn and Scientific Games, this innovative concept Scratchcard retail technology takes player and retailer experience to a whole new level and we’re confident it will change the way people buy Scratchcards. We also worked closely with Asda to meet the specific requirements of their new-look store and are absolutely delighted with how it’s turned out. We’ll now assess it over the next few months to determine how we move forward with the technology, but we’re really excited by the initial results.”
Scientific Games is the world’s largest lottery games company and the largest lottery systems technology partner in Europe. The company provides games, technologies, analytics and services to more than 150 lotteries in 50 countries worldwide.

Hitting for six: SPRIBE announces Suresh Raina as Aviator brand ambassador

Indian cricket legend becomes the latest athlete to promote the world’s number one crash games to his fans
SPRIBE, the pioneering software provider behind the world’s number one crash game, Aviator, has added cricket legend Suresh Raina to its growing roster of brand ambassadors.
Raina is a former Indian international cricketer known for his explosive batting, sharp fielding and inspiring team leadership.
He was a key player in India’s 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup victory and was also a star player for the Chennai Super Kings, helping the team secure multiple Indian Premier League titles.
His accolades don’t stop there. Raina was the first Indian to score a T20I century and remains one of League’s top run-scorers to this day.
Outside of cricket, he’s a successful entrepreneur, philanthropist and influential public figure.
As an Aviator brand ambassador, Raina will promote the game to his fans across various channels and through a range of campaigns over the coming 12 months.
He joins other Aviator brand ambassadors such as UFC superstars like Tom Aspinall, Alex Pereira, Johnny Walker and Merab Dvalishvili.
Aviator is the original crash game with more than 42 million active players a month placing upwards of 350,000 bets per minute across more than 5,500 online casino sites.
David Natroshvili, Founder & CEO at SPRIBE, said: “We are hitting for six with the partnership with Suresh, one of the most iconic and celebrated cricketers in India.
“Suresh was renowned for his explosive batting and thrilling style of play, and this makes him the perfect person to help us drive awareness of Aviator among cricket and sports fans in India.
“Aviator is the original crash game and players love the high-risk/high-reward gameplay it provides, and we are really looking forward to rolling out campaigns featuring Suresh that show this.”
Suresh Raina, former Indian cricketer and now Aviator ambassador, added: “Playing Aviator is the closest I have come to the thrill of playing professional cricket and I couldn’t be happier to help drive awareness of the game among my fans and followers.
“Aviator is action-packed with tons of social interaction and plenty of big win potential. Players have control over the outcome as they get to decide when to cash out – for those that can hold their nerve the longest, the biggest prizes await.
“SPRIBE has some great campaigns planned for the months ahead and I look forward to working with the team to help Aviator really take flight among cricket fans in India and beyond.”
