Virginia Lottery and IWG First to Launch Linked Progressive Jackpot e-Instants

Published

on

 

Instant Win Gaming (IWG), the leading supplier of digital e-Instants to NASPL/WLA-member lotteries, congratulates the Virginia Lottery for becoming the first US lottery to launch separate e-Instant games that share the same linked progressive jackpot prizes.

Sales from separate e-Instant games simultaneously contribute to a set of shared linked progressive jackpot prizes. The linked jackpots, branded Big Money Jackpots, incorporate three in-game, instant-win jackpot prizes: a mini jackpot expected to be awarded multiple times each day, a mid-tier jackpot expected to be awarded twice per week, and a top-prize jackpot expected to be awarded twice per month. Actual frequency will depend on the volume of play.

Initially, two e-Instant titles, Cash Buster Multiplier and Prospector’s Gold, combine to offer Virginia Lottery players the chance to scoop the rolling jackpot prizes. These games incorporate the same bonus mechanic when awarding the chance to win the progressive jackpots. This creates a consistent look and feel to the linked jackpots feature across multiple e-Instants, independent of each individual game’s theme and play style.

IWG’s linked InstantJackpots module can be applied to any IWG game, and the company has plans to add more titles into the jackpot component over the coming months.

As with its InstantJackpots technology, the linked functionality is completely contained within IWG’s InstantRGS (remote game server) and ensures lotteries can launch these games with no development support required at the iLottery platform level.

Rhydian Fisher, CEO at IWG, said: Big credit to the fantastic team at the Virginia Lottery, who have become history makers once again, this time by being the first to offer linked progressive e-Instants. It is only fitting that Virginia would be the first to launch linked jackpots as they were also first to debut our InstantJackpots module just seven months ago with our standalone game Jungle Tumble Jackpots. We are so proud of our partnership with the Virginia Lottery and look forward to helping them grow their iLottery portfolio for years to come with innovative and exciting products.”

Rob Wesley, Director of Digital at Virginia Lottery, said: “We are excited to unveil our new linked progressive jackpot e-Instants offering, which adds to our growing progressive jackpot e-Instant portfolio. Our first two stand-alone progressive jackpot e-Instant games have consistently been in our top performing games ranking. The  collaboration, technology and service that IWG provides has allowed us to seamlessly plan, test, launch and grow this new category of games. We have high hopes for this launch, and as always, we look forward to partnering with IWG on all of its upcoming innovations.”

Gaming Corps expands Entain deal with Ontario live and Alberta launch planned

Supplier content is already live on BetMGM in Ontario, with Party Casino & Sports Interaction lined up ahead of Alberta’s July iGaming opening.

Gaming Corps has expanded its partnership with Entain, extending distribution of its casino content across more Entain brands and markets, with Canada positioned as a key near-term focus.

The supplier went live with Entain’s joint venture BetMGM in Ontario in December 2025, followed by a wider Entain rollout in the province in March 2026. Gaming Corps and Entain are also preparing for Alberta’s regulated iGaming market opening in July, with Gaming Corps content “ready to go live from day one with BetMGM” and Party Casino & Sports Interaction to follow.

Outside Canada, Gaming Corps said it completed a full content launch in Brazil with Sportingbet and Betboo in May, and launched 3 Pigs of Olympus exclusively across Entain’s UK-facing Ladbrokes, Coral Gala and Foxy brands in June. The company also said additional launches are being prepared for Portugal, Spain and New Zealand.

The latest phase includes football-themed titles such as Penalty Champion, Goals to Glory: Football Fever and Goals to Glory: Instant Blitz, alongside the supplier’s 3 Pigs IP. Graham Greensmith, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Corps, said: “For Gaming Corps, this is a huge milestone. Entain is one of the biggest names in global gaming, so to see our relationship grow in this way is a clear sign of the trust, performance and commercial value we have built together.

“What makes this particularly exciting is the scale of the opportunity. This is not a single-brand launch or a one-market rollout. Entain is continuing to take Gaming Corps content into more territories, across more of its brands, and that says a lot about where we are as a business.

“We have worked hard to build a portfolio that gives major operators real flexibility, from high-performing IP to timely, event-led content and new game formats. To see that strategy being recognised by a partner of Entain’s calibre is incredibly rewarding, and we are very excited about what comes next.”

Obdulio Bacarese, Global Gaming Director at Entain, added: “Gaming Corps has been a valuable partner over the last four years. The strength of the relationship lies in how easily the content can be activated around different commercial priorities, from supporting new market entries to adding timely releases around key calendar moments. The studio understands the need for content that is flexible, relevant and easy to position locally, and we are pleased to continue building on the partnership.”
