WLA: Working together for responsible lottery business

The WLA is an international organization promoting the interests of state-licensed lotteries. It was founded in August 1999 by the merger of AILE, the International Association of State Lotteries, and Intertoto, the International Association of Lotteries and Lotto Organizations. The organization’s mission is to educate about the lottery industry, set technical and ethical industry standards, and provide educational services to its members. The WLA brings together members from more than 80 countries on six continents. In 2021, members collectively contributed approximately $80 billion to charitable causes.

“We are proud the WLA has accepted us as a member,” says a delighted Helmut Becker, CEO of ZEAL. “As the German market leader for online lotteries, we take our responsibility in the areas of compliance, security and risk management very seriously and attach great importance to social commitments as well. We are pleased to be a part of this important organization with immediate effect and to support the high standards of the WLA and its members.”
