Press Releases

23^rd April 2018

Leading online lotto operator, Lottoland has today launched a revolutionary new range of lotto jackpots called “GO!” – a brand new product, offering players a chance to win huge jackpots every hour.

The first GO! product is EuroMillionaire GO! – a game in the familiar and popular 5/50 plus 2/12 format. The jackpot of EuroMillionaire GO! will match the EuroMillions jackpot, so prizes can reach £160 million. The current jackpot is at a HUGE £121 million. The big difference is that Customers can win Lottoland’s jackpot every hour, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

For just £2.50, players can bet on this draw and – best of all – if they don’t match any numbers, Lottoland will give them their money back! The money back guarantee isn’t an offer nor a promotion, but a fundamental change after introducing a new “match no numbers” prize tier.

The second GO! product 6 / 49 GO! is based on the classic and much loved 6 out of 49 draw, with a jackpot that follows the German Lotto 6aus49 jackpot which can climb to over £25 million and can be won when a player’s bet matches all six numbers and the ‘super number’. For just £1 players can bet on this exciting new draw, which also offers players a chance to win on ten different prize tiers. Alongside 6/49 GO!, Lottoland has also launched three additional bonus games – Lucky 7s, Super6 and Monthly Moolah – all of which increase your chances of winning every hour.

EuroMillionaire GO! is now available at www.lottoland.co.uk , and will soon be followed by 6 /49 GO!

Lottoland is able to expand its portfolio with high jackpot GO! products thanks to its innovative Random and insured Number Generator (RiNG™). RiNG™ allows customers to win huge jackpots instantly – with the prizes being insured through Lottoland’s own insurance infrastructure, which is regulated by the Financial Services Commission (“FSC”) in Gibraltar in accordance with EU insurance legislation. Lottoland is the first and only company in the gaming sector to have established its own insurance company – holding itself up to the highest standards with regards to industry best practice and transparency.

Lottoland’s CEO Nigel Birrell said, “Gone are the days of having to wait for a Friday night lottery draw to have a chance of winning a multi-million-pound jackpot. Our players are always on the go so we have developed an instant win product to meet their needs. We know also many people are fed up with traditional lottery matching no numbers week in, week out and having an unrewarding experience. So, the gamechanger for players is our additional “match no numbers” prize tier, stacking the odd’s massively in favour of the player over traditional lotteries. For EuroMillionaire GO! it reduces the odds of any win to 1 in 2.1 which compares to 1 in 13 for the traditional EuroMillions lottery. Lottoland is all about delivering innovation and giving a more rewarding experience so believe strongly players will see the value and convenience of our revolutionary new GO! range.”

Online lotto and gaming company expands its portfolio with high jackpot instant win games thanks to innovative “Random & insured Number Generator” (RiNG™)

Lottoland, the world leader in the online lotto-betting sector, has introduced its unique prize insurance model to scratch cards, casino and instant win games – revolutionising the industry, and allowing Lottoland to offer the largest prizes in online gaming.

The Random & insured Number Generator (RiNG™) allows customers to win huge jackpots instantly – with the prizes being insured through Lottoland’s trusted and proven insurance infrastructure.

The new technology is already live and the initial suite of high prize games can already be played on our website www.lottoland.com:

• KeNow Play – with a top prize of €5mn (soon: €10mm)
• A €10mn new scratchcard – the highest prize for any scratchcard available in Europe.

This is just the start, over the next twelve months we will be introducing many more instant win games of various game formats with prizes up to €100mn and further scratchcards with top prizes of €2.5mn, €5mn, and €7.5mn. The games will be available across multiple Lottoland markets, and also for Lottoland’s B2B and B2G customers through Lottoland Solutions and its partners Glück Games and Gamevy. RiNG™ is also open to third party game/casino operators who wish to build high prize/jackpot games and have them insured through Lottoland.

The in-house developed, proprietary RiNG™-technology is based on a new landmark combination of existing and new technologies:

• A hardware RNG “Quantis Appliance” is used to deliver true quantum randomness.
• Two instances are installed for redundancy and failover.
• The certified RiNG™ application itself is built on the base of a future driven technology stack.
• Most importantly, the technology runs in a multi-layer secured and protected environment with a trusted time-stamping mechanism to guarantee tamper-proof results.

The combination of the above allows any instant win game prizes/jackpots to be underwritten by Lottoland’s prize insurance, at the centre of which its Insurance Linked Security (ILS) stands. Consequently, there is no need anymore for jackpots to be fed through customer’s’ contribution as they can simply be seeded by the insurance – the same way Lottoland has solved the jackpot liquidity problem in lotto betting, it is now doing the same to the instant win game and casino sector.

Lottoland’s CEO Nigel Birrell said, “Leading betting operators already work with Lottoland Solutions to provide lotto betting services to their players. Now, all private and state operators offering casino-style, instant win and scratchcard gaming can work with us. We look forward to sharing this breakthrough combination of technology and insurance. It will enable the instant win gaming and younger generation lottery players to get access to high jackpot instant win games, whilst operators can freely decide which prizes they want to offer – we will provide the insurance”.
