For over 60 years, our customers have placed their trust in us, and their needs are our top priority. This applies to our WestLotto retail locations (kiosks) as well as our online and mobile channels. Consumer protection is of utmost importance to us. Westdeutsche Lotterie GmbH & Co. OHG (WestLotto) was founded in 1955. The shareholder of WestLotto is NRW.BANK Düsseldorf/Münster. Revenue in 2022 was 1.72 billion Euros. Together with the 15 other lottery companies in the federal states, we form the German Lotto and Toto Block. Approximately 40 percent of our customers' stakes go to the state of NRW, which in turn promotes the common good. "In addition to their winnings, NRW lottery players have thus generated over 55 million Euros per month for the common good. I would like to express my gratitude for this, also on behalf of all social institutions in our state," says Managing Director Andreas Kötter. Around 385 employees work at our headquarters in Münster. We manage approximately 3,100 retail locations (kiosks) in NRW, as well as online and mobile gaming operations. In our company, training is conducted for retail staff, and major winners are supported. Strategic decisions for the company are made here, finances are managed, and marketing campaigns are developed. Eighty-five employees in Münster alone are dedicated to the development and maintenance of our IT. WestLotto values an open corporate culture. As a medium-sized company, communication channels are short, and personal exchange with colleagues from all areas of the company is encouraged. We support our employees through offerings in occupational health management and flexibility in working hours and location.
