Lottery cards have been a staple of the gambling world for centuries and now, with Playtech’s recent decision to partner with international lottery company, Scientific Games, the time-honoured game could be arriving soon at top online casinos like BetFair, William Hill and more.
Scientific Games services 120 customers across the world, including the UK National Lottery operator, Camelot and the Chinese State Government (where it produces roughly eight million scratch cards per year). Now, Playtech and Scientific Games are working on plans to launch a joint venture called, appropriately enough, Sciplay. Sciplay will host B2G lottery contracts with the government and bring a fully secure and regulated lottery system to popular internet casinos. The combined knowledge and experience of Playtech and Scientific Games should be enough to make the new gaming option a successful draw for players. Both companies have long exhibited a thorough understanding of their markets and their collaboration will, no doubt, act as yet another bridge between traditional forms of gambling and the games offered at online casinos.
Many of the industry’s leading online casinos make use of Playtech software to power their games. We can expect to see Playtech casinos, BetFair Casino, BetFred Casino and William Hill Casino at the top of the list when Sciplay’s lottery games launch in the near future.

Sky Vegas members have likely followed news of Sky Betting and Gaming’s recent contract with NEOVIA Financial. Many may have been curious about exactly how such a move would impact their favourite online casino but, rest assured, the latest news item regarding the work between NEVOIA and Sky looks to be a positive one for the site’s players.
The first benefit of the contract has been unveiled —giving the virtual casino’s members access to the Neteller e-Wallet payment system. Neteller, a funds processor that has fought to stay afloat next to competition from the likes of PayPal and Moneybookers, will enjoy something of a rebirth as it is offered to Sky Betting and Gaming members. Sky reported excitement at the development and implementation of the system on their gambling services. A win-win situation, NEOVIA’s Neteller will enjoy exposure to a wider audience while Sky Vegas will be able to offer its customers an alternative to credit card payment processing.
Online gamblers that play at any of Sky Betting and Gaming’s networks (Sky Vegas, Sky Poker, SkyBet, SkyBingo) will be able to handle their deposits and withdrawals through Neteller in the near future. The massive fan base contributing traffic to Sky’s gambling sites should help to give a financial boost to both companies involved in the contract. NEOVIA Financial has also sign contracts with other leading gambling corporations such as UWin, BSkyB and more.
