NEWS

Juni 2018 – PRESS RELEASE – Quality Group Lottery Solutions GmbH (“TQG-LS”) will support Sorteos Tec in the transformation of the company into a digital, modern and player-centric social lottery with process consulting and support as well as the technical implementation..

Soreteos Tec was founded in 1943 by Eugenio Garza Sada and a group of businessmen, who formed a civil association called Enseñanza e Investigación Superior.

Implementing of "TQG-LotterySuite"

The goal is to transform Sorteos Tec, which has been successfully marketing lottery games as a social lottery for more than 70 years, into a modern and more efficient organization that focuses on the needs of its players. TQG-LS will implement its Omin-Channel lottery platform “TQG-LotterySuite” and adapt Sorteos Tec specific functions on the platform. The new lottery platform will then interact with third-party systems as well as with Sorteos Tec’s own applications. From the outset, Sorteos Tec will migrate all Internet activities to the TQG platform. In the second phase, the more than 100,000 sellers who currently sell lottery tickets offline to players in Mexico will be involved. Sorteos Tec ticket sales represent a valuable contribution to Mexico’s society, as the ticket revenues are used for scholarships for low-income students at Tecnológico de Monterrey.

“With TQG-LS we have selected an innovative and agile lottery technology supplier. They have excellent expertise and have already carried out various projects for social lotteries. Their technology and advice will help us transform Sorteos Tec into a customer-focused company. This will give us more opportunities to promote education in Mexico through our scholarship program “Lideres del Mañana”.””.

This makes it possible to store the data "free of charge".
