The new technology includes SG’s central gaming system, business intelligence platform and lottery terminals
Scientific Games has completed the upgrade of the New Mexico Lottery’s draw-based and instant game sales, simplifying product management for the lottery’s retailers and enhancing the player experience.
The integrated tech conversion also includes Scientific Games Enhanced Partnership instant game management program—which together analytics, logistics, retail optimization and product strategy to drive game performance and maximize proceeds to education in the state.
The upgrade to the lottery’s systems comes after Scientific Games was awarded a ten-year contract in February 2025 to serve as the full-line provider to the New Mexico Lottery, having previously served as the lottery’s instant games provider since 2018.
“The New Mexico Lottery is officially live with new, modern technology systems that work together to enhance all aspects of our operations and ensure we are well-positioned for our next era of growth,” said David Barden, CEO of the New Mexico Lottery.
“We’ve strategically planned every step of this holistic modernization effort with Scientific Games to intelligently operate our retail network, making our Scratchers games easier for retailers to manage in their stores and easily accessible to our valued players.”
John Schulz, president of Americas & global instant products for Scientific Games, commented: “Congratulations to the New Mexico Lottery for building upon our long-standing instant scratch game partnership, embracing innovation for the future. We are proud to serve as the Lottery’s full-line partner and help drive maximum proceeds for New Mexico college students.”
