Our experience

Allwyn is a leading global lottery operator. We build better lotteries that return more to good causes by focusing on innovation, technology, efficiency and safety.

The lottery-first approach of focusing on affordable recreational play has earned us leading market positions with trusted brands across Europe in Austria, Czech Republic, Greece and Cyprus, and Italy. Through our 64,000 points of sale and digital platforms, we serve a market of over 79 million adults, bringing in annual sales of over €16bn.

As one of the largest taxpayers in each of our markets, we contribute hugely to national and local economies, returning over €2bn to governments in taxes and lottery duties. We also support direct community investment from each of Allwyn's brands, financing a wide range of Good Causes across the health, sports, arts and community sectors.
