An emerging lottery supplier has added another partner to continue its trend of innovation.
Kentucky-based EQL Games, whose offerings include various online lottery games, scratch-offs, eInstants, Keno, and more, just announced a partnership with Evoplay, an accomplished iGaming development studio in Europe. It was the first to incorporate 3D and VR technology into slot games.
The Evoplay library features over 250 slot, table, and instant games that combine traditional casino gameplay with groundbreaking graphics, engaging sound, and lifelike animations.
“We are excited to welcome Evoplay to the EQL Games iLottery Aggregator, marking a key advancement in expanding our content portfolio,” Brad Cummings, Founder and CEO of EQL Games, said in a news release. “Their inventive games will significantly enhance the variety we offer, providing our lottery partners with a forward-thinking and consumer-driven portfolio. This collaboration showcases our goal of delivering high-quality content that drives growth and excitement in the lottery industry. When I saw their games at a conference earlier this year, I knew Evoplay’s games were right in line with what we were looking to represent in the lottery industry.”

Evoplay lottery options will be added to a growing EQL portfolio, which boasts more than 200 games, numerous partner studios, and eight lottery contracts. The company has expanded rapidly since its creation, achieving innovations that include the first lottery-only content aggregator for US lotteries and the first draw game in the country based on a live sporting event.
Frank Cecchini, Head of Lottery at Evoplay, said in the press release:
“We are excited to see EQL Games become the first to offer our innovative lottery products in the US market. Leveraging our vast experience in other gaming verticals, we’ve crafted lottery solutions that are not only engaging but also designed to captivate both seasoned lottery enthusiasts and younger generations. These high-energy games offer a fresh, dynamic experience that redefines what players can expect from lottery products and we are delighted to finally offer them to the market.”
Evoplay revenue data reveals promising returns
Evoplay recently recorded its most successful half-year in terms of gross gaming revenue and bet sum, with year-over-year increases of 26% and 37%, respectively.
The company is making a concerted effort to attract younger demographics as the global lottery market is forecasted to continue a trend of vibrant growth.
EQL Games owns impressive network of partners
Evoplay becomes the 16th studio partner added by EQL Games to enhance its iLottery aggregator. The EQL aggregator enables lotteries to provide content from multiple studios with a singular point of contact.
This past summer, EQL made headlines with Team USA-branded games in advance of the Olympics. In July, the company also completed a partnership with Scientific Games, a global lottery leader with a presence in 50 countries worldwide.
As a result of these combined efforts, EQL’s own footprint continues to expand, with operations that now span two continents (North and South America) and additional markets that are likely to be added in the upcoming year.
The partnership with Evoplay is simply EQL’s latest move on a path toward further growth. It seems others will soon follow.
