TORONTO, ON – OLG is taking the next step in delivering a modernized lottery technology system that will strengthen its ability to deliver sustainable growth and long-term value for Ontario.

Following a competitive procurement process, OLG has selected Intralot Canada Ltd., the Canadian subsidiary of Bally’s Intralot Group, as its new lottery technology solution provider. The vendor plans to expand its team to support implementation and ongoing operations alongside OLG in Sault Ste. Marie and Toronto.

The new lottery technology solution will update OLG's current core systems and position the organization to capitalize on emerging technologies and enhance player experience.

Once fully implemented, the benefits will include faster time-to-market and new, exciting ways to play the lottery, allowing OLG to keep pace with evolving customer expectations in the ever-changing Ontario gaming market.

“We’re excited to work together to bring customers even more engaging lottery experiences, with offerings designed to better meet their needs and add more enjoyment to every play,” said Duncan Hannay, President and CEO of OLG. “This investment will position us for future growth, modernize legacy systems, and strengthen our ability to give back to the people and communities of Ontario.”

“OLG is a leader in the lottery sector, and this agreement reflects the strength of Bally’s Intralot’s global lottery expertise and advanced technology capabilities,” said Robeson Reeves, CEO of Bally’s Intralot Group. “Our platforms are built to handle the complexity, scale and security demands of modern lottery operations, backed by decades of hands-on experience running mission-critical lottery systems across global markets. As the industry continues to evolve, we are committed to giving OLG the tools, data intelligence and technical foundation it needs to lead. We are proud to support OLG’s next chapter as it continues to deliver value across Ontario.”

The new lottery technology solution is expected to be in place by 2029.
