PROVIDENCE, RI – (July 02, 2008) – Lottomatica S.p.A.'s wholly-owned subsidiary, GTECH Global Services Corporation , announced that it has successfully launched its Enterprise Series™ (ES) interactive solution for New Zealand Lotteries Commission (NZ Lotteries), allowing the sale of select online lottery games to players via the Internet.

“Interactive systems extend lottery play beyond retailer constraints of time and place, allowing access to a large and growing market of players who value mobility, and also the convenience of purchasing lottery tickets through ‘new media' channels such as the Internet,” said GTECH President and CEO Jaymin B. Patel. “ES Interactive provides NZ Lotteries with a safe, reliable way to add new lottery players through more readily available personal gaming.”

ES Interactive is a multi-channel solution designed for growth and is easily customized to suit local play preferences. GTECH, working together with NZ Lotteries, integrated ES Interactive into the Lottery's existing ES platform over a period of eight months.

“Working with NZ Lotteries, listening to their needs, and understanding what their players want, we were able to quickly provide a solution that gives NZ Lotteries another sales channel to extend traditional online lottery games to a new audience of mobile players,” said Mr. Patel.
