Gtech Corporation has signed a seven-year contract with Chile’s Polla Chilena de Beneficencia to provide the Latin American lottery with services and products.
Under the contract, which commences in September 2009, Gtech will supply Polla Chilena with an online and instant-ticket lottery system, fixed-odds sports betting event, risk management services, an interactive platform, 2,200 Altura terminals and a communications network.
“Lotteries today seek both innovation and technological leadership when it comes to providing central systems and terminals,” said Jaymin B. Patel, the company's president and chief executive, in a prepared statement. “We are pleased to once again be afforded the opportunity to partner with Polla Chilena and provide them with a comprehensive set of solutions to deliver the maximum player experience and the highest levels of integrity, security, and profitability.”
