NLA Re-Engages SIMNET Ghana

National Lottery Authority (NLA), the sole Regulator and Operator of Lotto and Lottery in Ghana has re-engaged SIMNET Ghana Ltd. (SIMNET) to provide NLA with Online Lottery Services.

With the renewal of the relationship, SIMNET would operate alongside the existing Online Lottery Service provider, LOTS Services. With the two operators, NLA expects to boost its revenue generation mandate.

NLA is confident that the re-engagement of SIMNET would broaden the Retailer penetration throughout the country and evidently accord our valued patrons visibility and access to NLA’s Point of Sale Terminals (POSTs) with ease.

NLA takes this opportunity to welcome SIMNET back and promises its cherished Lotto Marketing Companies (LMCs) greater efficiency designed to let their businesses thrive.

POST REPAIR CENTRES

POSTs Repair and Swapping Centres will be established in all NLA Regional and District offices as well as selected markets, to ensure proximity of services and deliverables to our cherished LMCs.

NEW POSTs
NLA is pleased to announce that it has also procured new POSTs to boost operations and therefore all outstanding deployments will be completed this year. Similarly, LMCs with old POSTs will have these replaced.

COMMISSIONS
NLA is again pleased to further announce that Commission payment is now being done within a week after the end of the month.

PAYMENT OF WINS

Soon, LMCs will be able to pay Wins from their business locations. We would also like our valued patrons to note that since May 2015, winners do not have to wait fourteen days to liquidate their tickets. Tickets can be liquidated within twenty four hours after the draw.

NEW GAME AND CHANNEL

In the last five months, NLA has introduced two new exciting products, Soccer Cash and Mobile 5/90, to ensure that our valued patrons are spoiled for choice. Soccer Cash was developed in collaboration with the Ministry of Youth and Sports to support and promote sports in the country.

The Mobile Lottery Platform allows our valued patrons to register and download 5/90 Fixed Odds Games Applications onto their smart phones and play the Games using funds from their mobile wallet.

CONCLUSION
POSTs of NLA have been branded with the NLA logo for easy identification and the general public is requested to patronize ONLY NLA lottery products and/or games.

NLA entreats all its cherished LMCs to contact the NLA Regional Managers should they have any queries.
