AZ Billions, the globe’s first new alphabet lottery, due for launch this coming June, has today revealed an exciting new partnership with the world’s only single-step multi-factor authentication, MIRACL.

According to AZ Billions,the global online lottery market is expected to grow by 14.9% in the next five years. One reason why AZ BIllions, the world’s first letter based lottery, is launching in June 2023. As an online first game, it is imperative that the user experience is as clean and friction-free as possible, and why selecting the smoothest multi-factor authentication was imperative.

MIRACL, is the fastest, single-step, passwordless multi-factor authentication (MFA) on the market. Unlike other multi-factor authenticators it only requires one step for the user to authenticate, thus play is seamless and any loss of revenue due to clunky login alternatives is entirely reduced. With a proven login success rate of 99.9%, it makes MIRACL an ideal solution for this innovative new lottery.

In the past 12 months MIRACL has made significant headway in iGaming. Its partnership with another lottery initiative, MyLottoHub in Nigeria transformed the success of the organisation.In fact thanks to innovations with MIRACL, MyLottoHub nearly doubled its conversion rate to over 75%, and began a sustained period of exponential growth. Over six months, MyLottoHub experienced 60% growth in month-on-month traffic. Registered users continue to grow by 35% a month. Underpinning this exceptional health is an industry-leading login success rate of 99.8%, entirely thanks to MIRACL. Expectations for another successful lottery partnership remain high with AZ Billions.

CEO at XHL, Craig Austin says, “Our whole team is thrilled to be partnering with MIRACL and being able to utilise MIRACL’s single-step sign in authentication. We decided it is imperative to utilise MIRACL’s technology to enable as smoother onboarding process by facilitating an efficient UI and customer journey, which we believe can only complement our bottom line.”

Michael Tanaka, CCO at MIRACL added, “AZ Billions is an innovative lottery about to launch on a global scale, and we are very pleased to be integrating our single-step authentication into their platform from the outset. Following the success achieved by MyLottoHub, we’re confident that MIRACL’s technology will help elevate AZ Billion’s user experience, maximising the impact and profit potential of this new alphabet based lottery – all whilst meeting even the toughest security standards set by lottery regulators such as Canada’s AGCO.”

MIRACL eliminates the need for outdated security practices such as passwords, SMS Texts, push notifications and key-cards. The use of true two-factor authentication coupled with the latest Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) patented technology means no personal data is stored or transmitted and there are no “honey-pots” of data exposed to attack, ensuring MIRACL Trust is completely GDPR friendly too. With a simple two second login via PIN or biometric, MIRACL customers see login success rates as high as 99.996%.

As part of its ongoing commitment to player protection, the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) has announced the launch of an online Self-Assessment Tool, available in both English and Maltese, designed to help individuals reflect on their gambling habits and behaviour.

Developed in close collaboration with several key local organisations – namely Sedqa, Caritas Malta, the OASI Foundation and the Responsible Gaming Foundation – the tool is completely anonymous, free to use and accessible to all.

Rooted in the Problem Gambling Severity Index – a widely recognised, evidence-based screening tool – the questionnaire comprises nine straightforward questions. These aim to assess the extent of an individual’s gambling behaviour while also considering broader social and environmental influences.

The tool encourages self-reflection in an accessible way, helping players consider whether they may benefit from reaching out for professional guidance. Should a user’s results indicate the need for further support, they will be directed to one of the participating organisations, each of which serves as a trusted point of contact for advice and care. Information is also available on safer gambling tools, such as setting limits or using global bet-blocking tools.

This initiative represents a collaborative, people-first approach to player protection, working alongside local entities in Malta and Gozo to ensure that anyone experiencing gambling-related harm is not only informed but also supported.

The MGA encourages players to use the tool regularly as a way to monitor changes in their gambling behaviour over time and stay mindful of any change that may occur.
