Loterie Romande accelerates its retail digitization with adesso Schweiz

Loterie Romande is taking an important step in the digital transformation of its retail sector by signing a framework contract with adesso Schweiz. The partnership aims to modernize the user experience while optimizing operational efficiency.

Faced with rapid developments in the lottery games sector, such as new technologies and changing player expectations, Loterie Romande started to adapt its retail sector in 2023 with the support of adesso. This adaptation is especially reflected in the LoRoPlay terminal for sports betting, a mobile application that generates QR codes compatible with traditional terminals and the new LoRoPlay system, as well as a voucher management platform that reduces the use of cash.

All current projects are now bundled under one contract, consolidating the strategic partnership between adesso and Loterie Romande for the digitization of its retail sector.

adesso developed the backend and frontend of the LoRoPlay self-service terminal, specially designed for sports betting, including live betting. The first applications were successfully launched in 2024. Currently, adesso provides continuous 24/7 operation, support and maintenance and is working on developments to improve the user experience.

“The complete digitization of our retail sector allows us to meet the rising expectations of our increasingly connected audience. adesso is the ideal partner for this important project. We’re already looking forward to continuing this collaboration.”

Francisco Gomes, director of operations and information systems at Loterie Romande.

“We’re proud that Loterie Romande has placed its trust in us to successfully modernize this important sector”, says Ralf Klappert, regional director for French-speaking Switzerland at adesso Schweiz. “Loterie Romande can continue to count on our more than 20 years of experience in the lottery sector, our solid IT know-how and our technological expertise.”
