Who Liw are
LiW, short for Lotto Instant Win and marketed as LiW Games, is described on its website as a live lottery service of the Zagreb-based lottery company Pin Projekt Ltd, which it says has more than 15 years in the gaming industry. The site gives no founding year for LiW itself; the Timeless Tech aggregator lists 2019, which we could not confirm elsewhere.
The product is not a slot. Numbered balls are drawn by mechanical drums with live presenters, streamed 24 hours a day from what the company calls four customisable multi-location studios, with two more planned. Players bet on the outcome of each draw across several formats.
The company says LiW Games won the G2E Asia 2018 Best Lottery Solution Award; we did not find an independent record of this. Its news page also mentions exhibiting at ICE London in February 2020 and at ICE in 2022.
In the IGP catalogue, Liw appears as 28 bet types built on these draws rather than as individually themed games.

What makes it different
What the studio is built around
LiW’s offer rests on physical ball draws run continuously, rather than on themed RNG games.
Mechanical drums, live hosts
Balls are drawn by mechanical drums with presenters on camera and streamed live. The company says its drum ran for three days straight without faults on its stand at ICE 2022.
Round-the-clock schedule
Draws run 24/7. The company quotes up to 180 draws a day in its 48-ball studio and more than 400 a day in its 20-ball studio.
Four ball pools
Separate studios for 48-, 20-, 37- and 80-ball formats cover Lucky Six-style draws, short 20-ball games, a roulette-style 1/37 game and keno. The site also mentions 59-ball and Sic Bo formats without detail.
Multi-location studios
The company describes its studios as customisable and multi-location and says two more are planned. It does not say where the studios are.

Markets and licensing
LiW’s site carries a news item stating that Lottery Live was awarded a corporate group critical gaming supply licence in Malta, obtained on 24 October and valid for ten years. It gives neither the year nor a licence number, and we could not confirm the licence on the MGA register, so we treat it as company-stated and unverified.
South African betting sites reported in 2020 that Hollywoodbets was the first local bookmaker to offer LiW, with Gbets also offering it by December 2020; these are affiliate sources and unverified. The company itself says only that it streams draws throughout the globe, and publishes no market list.

- No test-lab certificates published
- G2E Asia 2018 Best Lottery Solution Award: company-stated

No. They are live number draws: balls are drawn by mechanical drums with a presenter and streamed, and players bet on outcomes such as which numbers, colours or sums come up.
