Scientific Games achieves WLA re-certification
Sports betting and lottery technology company Scientific Games has achieved re-certification for the Responsible Gambling Certificate of Alignment from the World Lottery Association (WLA).
The certificate recognizes Scientific Games’ global operations as a technology provider and reports that Scientific Games demonstrated a “strong commitment to responsible gaming practices.”
In 2015, Scientific Games was one of the first organizations to achieve WLA certification as a responsible gaming supplier. Since then, Scientific Games has earned several re-certifications.
“Scientific Games has championed best-in-class integration of responsible gaming research and tools into online platforms,” Mélissa Azam, Senior Corporate Social Responsibility Manager for the World Lottery Association, said in a statement. “This reflects a thorough understanding of the company’s responsibilities as a gaming supplier committed to harm minimization and ethical gaming practices.”
Scientific Games works with 150 lotteries in 50 countries and launched its Healthy Play responsible gaming program in 2022. This provides global lotteries with science-backed tools and technology to improve accountable play.
“Scientific Games celebrates our WLA global re-certification as it re-affirms our steadfast commitment to responsible gaming innovation and ethical business practice across our operations and technology,” Pat McHugh, Scientific Games CEO, said in a statement. “We are dedicated to advancing our Healthy Play program so that we can continue to give our lottery customers tools and best practices to strengthen the impact of their responsible gaming efforts by cultivating greater public trust through increased lottery literacy.”
