New Hampshire Lottery Joins Mega Money Jackpots
Follows multi-state eInstant record jackpot award of $5.8 million
Instant Win Gaming (IWG), a leading supplier of eInstant games to NASPL and WLA-member lotteries, congratulates the New Hampshire Lottery on joining the Company’s multi-state eInstant progressive, Mega Money Jackpots.
The New Hampshire Lottery launched Jackpot Spectacular, its first game in the Mega Money Jackpots linked progressive pool, for players in the Granite State on April 24th. New Hampshire joins Pennsylvania and Virginia in offering Mega Money Jackpots linked games.
Additionally, IWG congratulates the Virginia Lottery along with its Mega Money Jackpots player who won a record-setting $5.8 million prize. The win sets another new U.S. iLottery record for the largest eInstant prize.
Mega Money Jackpots launched in July 2023, and over the past nine months the game has created eight millionaires. Since launch, more than 240 players across the participating lotteries have won Mega and Minor jackpots totaling more than $20 million.
The amount and frequency of these prizes showcases the excitement of IWG’s Mega Money Jackpots. To achieve this, select eInstants from participating lotteries each contribute a small percentage of the sales to fund the two progressive prize tiers, with IWG administering the settlement of jackpot prize monies on a turnkey basis.
The multi-state eInstant progressive jackpot is powered by IWG’s InstantJackpots. Since all functionality is contained within IWG’s InstantRGS (remote game server), no development support is required by a lottery’s iLottery platform provider. Additionally, new lotteries can join the system regardless of their iLottery platform provider.
Charlie McIntyre, Executive Director at New Hampshire Lottery, said: “Our industry has a proud track record of collaborating across state lotteries. We’re excited to join Mega Money Jackpots and to bring the excitement of it outsized prizes to our players. We know that our contribution will further enhance the game for everyone involved, and we look forward to creating some new millionaires here in New Hampshire.”
Rhydian Fisher, CEO at IWG, said: “Kudos to the team at New Hampshire Lottery. By joining Mega Money Jackpots, collectively we can award even more million dollar prizes to lottery players. Not only is the game frequently creating new millionaires, but it has also been a leading catalyst for new player signups. Fingers crossed that some new millionaires will be created in New Hampshire very soon.”

SCCG Enters Strategic Arrangement with Vanguard Strategies to Advance a Breakthrough Digital Engagement Platform for the Global Lottery Market
SCCG Management, a leading advisory firm in the global gaming industry, today announced that it has entered into a strategic arrangement with Vanguard Strategies involving proprietary intellectual property designed to redefine digital engagement across segments of the global lottery industry, with an initial focus on the U.S. lottery market.
The intellectual property provides the proprietary foundation for a fully integrated, regulator-compatible digital ecosystem intended to modernize how lottery stakeholders engage players, distribute content, and unlock new revenue streams across both retail and digital environments. The platform has been architected to align with existing regulatory frameworks while enabling meaningful expansion of participation, engagement, and monetization.
While specific technical and commercial details remain confidential, the underlying framework is designed to address long-standing structural limitations within the lottery sector—creating the potential for category-level innovation and substantial incremental revenue generation at scale.
Under the arrangement, SCCG will provide strategic advisory support, market positioning guidance, and selective industry engagement to help evaluate opportunities aligned with the platform’s long-term vision. The initiative is intended to surface interest from qualified stakeholders across the lottery ecosystem, including operators, suppliers, strategic partners, and institutional participants.
“This initiative represents a rare convergence of regulatory compatibility, digital innovation, and market-scale opportunity,” said Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management. “The lottery sector remains one of the largest and most under-digitized segments of regulated gaming. Working alongside Vanguard Strategies, we are approaching this thoughtfully and selectively, with a focus on long-term value creation rather than short-term exposure.”
The U.S. lottery market is one of the largest regulated gaming markets globally, generating sales of over one hundred billion dollars annually while remaining structurally constrained in terms of digital engagement. Solutions capable of operating within regulatory guardrails while meaningfully expanding participation and revenue potential remain exceptionally limited.
Additional information regarding the initiative will be shared on a confidential, case-by-case basis following initial discussions.

This certification confirms that Scientific Games has implemented a comprehensive framework to manage risks related to data security in accordance with internationally recognised best practices and principles.
