Key points:
- Deal will include 11 eInstant games provided to the Irish market
- App includes a number of player features
Pollard Banknote has agreed a deal with Premier Lotteries Ireland (PLI) to supply a mobile app and portfolio of eInstant games.
This collaboration was helped by Pollard Banknote’s subsidiary Mkodo and will see 11 eInstant games provided to PLI to be utilised by the Irish market, with titles such as Super Riches, Jungle Cashword and Sizzling Hot 7s included.
In terms of the app, this has been made for both Android and iOS, allowing for player registrations, internet gaming purchases, as well as lottery ticket scanning.
Pollard Banknote VP, Digital Engagement Shannon DeHaven said: "Pollard Banknote is excited to unveil our dynamic eInstant games and enhanced mobile app to the Irish market.
"We are committed to developing cutting-edge and immersive digital lottery experiences that resonate with players. Partnering with PLI to launch these exciting new offerings further demonstrates our deep expertise in the digital gaming space and our commitment to providing innovative, high-quality solutions that engage players and drive sales and business growth for our lottery customers."

PLI Head of Digital Stephen Reid added: "The launch of our new eInstant games and mobile application marks a significant step in the digital evolution of our products.
"We are focused on delivering an engaging and seamless lottery experience for our players, while ensuring that player protection and responsible gaming remain central to everything we do. We are confident that these new additions will provide players with a convenient and exciting way to purchase and play lottery games, while enhancing their overall experience and reinforcing our dedication to security and responsible play."
A similar deal was agreed last week between Aristocrat Interactive and IGT Global Solutions Corporations, with the former supplying its NeoGames Studio eInstant games to the Kentucky Lottery from next year.
