ALLWYN LOTTERY SOLUTIONS LIMITED

What ALLWYN LOTTERY SOLUTIONS LIMITED does

Allwyn Lottery Solutions Limited is the B2B technology solutions division of Allwyn Entertainment Group, providing an integrated iLottery platform to national and state lottery operators. Founded in 2009 (with a gaming studio operating since 2003), the company is headquartered in London with primary digital hubs in London and Athens and additional offices in Dublin, Chicago, and Larissa. Its customers include the UK National Lottery, Irish National Lottery, Illinois Lottery, Arkansas Lottery, Loterie Romande, and OPAP, and its platforms underpin over $5.4 billion in annual digital sales across the customer base.

The company builds a modular, cloud-native iLottery ecosystem composed of Genesis PAM (player account management), Genesis DBG (draw-based games), Command (back-office), Apollo RGS and Nexus aggregator (digital game delivery and third-party content), Optex (promotions and bonusing), Atlas (data lake, warehouse, ML, and BI), and Athena (containerized infrastructure on AWS with Docker/Kubernetes). The stack is built on Java/Spring Boot backends with React, React Native, and Vue.js frontends over PostgreSQL, and exposes capabilities via REST APIs for integration with third-party PSPs, KYC, geolocation, Adobe Experience Platform, and Braze. Allwyn LS also develops e-Instant and Fast Play game content, including the industry-first digital Fast Play vertical pioneered with the Illinois Lottery.

Allwyn LS monetizes through subscription/recurring platform fees, content licensing and royalties on game play, marketplace commissions via the Nexus aggregator, and professional services for advisory, delivery, and integration. The business targets a regulated government-lottery customer segment with multi-year enterprise contracts, full turnkey deployments, or modular integrations. Compliance is a core capability, with WLA Responsible Gaming Level 4 alignment, PCI DSS, GDPR, SOC 2 Type 2 (BSI), and ISO-aligned management systems underpinning the regulatory-mandated controls required to sell into this vertical.
