Brightstar Lottery on Tuesday announced that its subsidiary, Brightstar Global Solutions Corporation, has signed a six-year instant ticket printing and related services contract with longtime partner California Lottery, after a competitive procurement.

The California Lottery will have access to Brightstar’s instant ticket content and innovations portfolio, including top-performing games and Brightstar’s patented print and design technology, Infinity Instants, along with marketing services, game development, and analytics.

“The California Lottery and Brightstar have partnered closely throughout the years to develop numerous successful innovations, including one of the lottery’s highest-indexing games, the first $20 limited-tier game,” Brightstar Chief Operating Officer, North America Lottery Scott Gunn said in a statement. “We are excited to continue providing player-favorite games through our new contract and introduce new instant ticket offerings to scratchers players in California, while simultaneously supporting the lottery and its mission to generate supplemental funds for public education.”

Brightstar serves nearly 90 lottery customers and their players on six continents. It is the primary technology provider to 26 of the 46 lottery jurisdictions in the United States and eight of the world’s 10 largest lotteries.
