International Game Technology subsidiary IGT Global Solutions Corporation has extended its existing contract with the Kentucky Lottery Corporation for a further five years, taking its partnership to July 9, 2026.
The Lottery has opted to exercise its five one-year extension options in which IGT will provide new self-service lottery vending machines as well as updated technology.
Under the terms of the extension, IGT will provide the Lottery with a further 575 GameTouch 28 self-service vending machines and equip approximately 1,400 total GameTouch 28, GameTouch 20, and GameTouch Draw machines with cashless functionality that enables players to use credit or debit cards to purchase lottery products.
In addition to these products, the firm will continue to provide the Kentucky Lottery Corporation with facilities management, field service, call center services, and marketing support.
