The Kansas Lottery has selected Instant Win Gaming to supply a full portfolio of eInstant games as part of a new long-term agreement, marking a further expansion of IWG’s presence in North American igaming and digital lottery markets. Kansas becomes the 33rd NASPL/WLA-member lottery to partner with IWG and the ninth U.S. lottery to deploy the supplier’s digital content.
Under the deal, IWG will deliver a regular schedule of eInstant titles to the Kansas Lottery via its InstantRGS remote game server. A core focus of the roadmap will be adapting familiar retail scratcher mechanics into digital-first formats, with IWG’s development teams tasked with reworking traditional instant-win concepts for an online iLottery environment.
InstantRGS is already fully integrated with the Pollard Catalyst platform, an integration that was completed within a short timeframe due to Catalyst’s cloud-native architecture and coordination between the two suppliers. This existing connection provides the Kansas Lottery with a relatively low-friction technical onboarding process as it expands its igaming-style digital games offering.
The Kansas Lottery launched its iLottery program in early 2025, and the IWG partnership represents a key next step in broadening its portfolio with third-party eInstant content. By adding IWG’s retail-inspired digital games to its platform, the lottery is aiming to build on early iLottery momentum while maintaining continuity between its traditional instant ticket products and its growing online channel.
“This is another important milestone for IWG as we continue to support the growth of iLottery programs across North America,” said Jason Lisiecki, Executive Vice President, IWG. “Kansas Lottery’s strategic focus on bringing proven scratch mechanics into the digital channel aligns perfectly with our leadership in this space. We look forward to delivering a steady stream of compelling eInstants tailored to Kansas players, and to helping the Lottery scale engagement in the months ahead.”
Stephen Durrell, Executive Director, Kansas Lottery, added: “As we evaluated partners for our long-term eInstant strategy, IWG stood out for their willingness to embrace our specific game requirements and their ability to consistently deliver highly engaging content within the boundaries we set. Their experience transforming retail scratch styles into successful digital formats made this partnership an easy decision. We’re excited for Kansas players to experience the depth and quality of IWG’s portfolio.”
