Brightstar to supply instant ticket games to Totalizator Sportowy
Contract covers Brightstar's full instant ticket content portfolio
Agreement builds on an established supplier relationship in Poland

Brightstar Lottery has confirmed a new agreement to supply instant ticket games to Totalizator Sportowy, Poland's state-owned national lottery operator, extending the companies' long-standing commercial relationship.

Under the terms of the contract, Totalizator Sportowy will gain access to Brightstar's full portfolio of instant ticket content and related innovations.

The supplier said the agreement will support the ongoing development of instant ticket products for the Polish lottery market, where scratchcards remain a key component of overall lottery sales.

Brightstar operates as a global lottery supplier, providing technology and content to nearly 90 lottery customers across six continents.

The supplier is also the primary technology provider to 26 of the 46 lottery jurisdictions in the United States and supplies eight of the world's ten largest lottery operators.

The Poland agreement reinforces Brightstar's focus on international lottery partnerships, particularly in regulated, state-run markets, where instant-ticket innovation is used to maintain player engagement while supporting public-funding objectives.

Marco Tasso, Brightstar COO of Italian and International Lottery Operations, said: "Brightstar's longstanding partnership with Totalizator Sportowy and knowledge of the Polish market enables us to collaborate on world-class instant ticket games."

Tasso added that the supplier expects the portfolio to meet the expectations of Polish lottery players as the operator continues to evolve its instant games offering.

Totalizator Sportowy operates a wide range of lottery and sports betting products under Poland's regulated gambling framework, with lottery proceeds directed towards sport, culture and public interest initiatives.

The latest contract forms part of a broader period of international activity for Brightstar, which has continued to secure long-term agreements across multiple regions as lotteries modernise both retail and digital operations.

Earlier this month, Brightstar secured a long-term lottery technology contract with Lotterywest in Western Australia. That agreement covers central gaming system replacement, digital services and the deployment of new retail terminals, with a potential duration of up to 19 years.

The supplier has also expanded through partnerships in Europe and North America, including an instant games agreement with Sazka and a contract extension with the Texas Lottery.

Brightstar recently agreed to supply 1,200 new lottery terminals to Pan Malaysian Pools, further expanding its hardware footprint in Southeast Asia
