Every Matrix Lottery Division: Corporate Restructuring and Product Focus

B2B iGaming software provider EveryMatrix has announced the official launch of a new dedicated Lottery business division designed to deliver digital-first technologies, features, and functionalities for the global lottery sector. The announcement, issued from Malta on 23 June 2026, details a structured corporate expansion engineered to broaden the group’s specialized lottery product capabilities.

While EveryMatrix possesses more than a decade of experience supplying its modular turnkey platform, sportsbook technology, casino management systems, and proprietary content to tier-1 state operators, the newly formed division will systematically extend its reach via lottery-specific verticals. The dedicated business unit is tasked with spearheading long-term capital investments, focused explicitly on deploying advanced numbers games, pool sports solutions, and an expanded portfolio of digital instant lotteries (eInstants).

Executive Leadership and Established Market Footprint

Nikolina Gabelica, who joined EveryMatrix three years ago as Head of Lottery, has been elevated to the role of Managing Director for the new business unit. Gabelica has historically guided the supplier’s commercial and product alignment strategies within the global lottery landscape. She carries more than 20 years of international experience across the iGaming and lottery sectors, spanning corporate product development, commercial structuring, and operational leadership. Furthermore, Gabelica remains embedded within global industry networks through the European Lotteries (EL) association, where she previously served as the Executive Chair of the Marketing & Communications Working Group.

The establishment of this standalone division unifies EveryMatrix’s existing commercial connections with multiple tier-1 state-backed lotteries. The group maintains long-standing B2B tech supply partnerships with major monopoly operators, including Szerencsejáték Zrt (Hungary), Norsk Tipping (Norway), Veikkaus (Finland), OPAP (Greece), and Danske Spil (Denmark).

Nikolina Gabelica, Managing Director of Lottery at EveryMatrix, commented on the operational approach guiding the rollout:

“We strongly believe there is room in the lottery world for a new approach, bringing modern, modular and digital-first technologies that help lotteries grow, innovate and better meet expectations of today’s players. The creation of a dedicated Lottery business unit is a natural next step and an important milestone for EveryMatrix that reflects our long-term commitment to the lottery sector.”

Compliance Posture and State-Monopoly Risk Analysis

The transition toward a standalone, highly focused lottery infrastructure division reflects a broader strategic shift within the B2B supply chain as state-regulated monopolies accelerate their digital transformation strategies. In GC’s assessment, the lottery sector represents one of the most highly insulated yet technically rigid verticals within global gambling governance. Unlike standard commercial iGaming environments, state lotteries operate under strict statutory controls, where any evolution in software or product distribution requires flawless coordination with competent political authorities and national treasury departments.

By segregating lottery-specific development, particularly high-velocity digital products like eInstants and pool sports, from traditional commercial sportsbooks and casino platforms, EveryMatrix significantly limits regional compliance risk for its partners. State lotteries require specialized platform segregation, immutable audit trails, and strict player protection mechanisms that conform to the highest levels of corporate governance. As supervisory bodies across Europe tighten responsible gambling guidelines and impose stricter data privacy laws, utilizing a distinct, pre-certified B2B technology layer allows state licensees to modernize their product offerings while preserving an ironclad compliance posture.
