LOTERJ advances international partnership with WA.Technology to control VLTs and strengthens its leadership in regulating the gaming sector

This week, Loterj met with executives from WA.Technology, an Italian holding company specialized in technological solutions for the gaming sector, with a focus on VLT control and monitoring. The participants were the president Hazenclever Lopes Cançado, the vice-president Fabíola Esteves and the director of Regulatory Affairs of the company and former president of Caixa Loterias, Waldir Eustáquio Marques Júnior, in addition to the executives Lorenzo Caci, Fillipo Ceci and Manuele Carrate.

The technical specifications of the WA.Technology platform are presented, which offers continuous monitoring of equipment, adaptation to different architectures, real-time control and tools against money laundering, gaming problems and irregularities. Hazenclever highlighted that the rules are in the final phase and highlighted Río's protagonism:
"In the next few days, we will reveal clear and safe rules for the VLT, which will guarantee total control, player protection and the return of resources to society. There is real potential to lead this global market. Loterj will act with seriousness, innovation and responsibility, without improvisations or lags".
