Singapore Pools: Safeguarding public interest

Established in May 1968 to curb illegal gambling, Singapore Pools is a wholly state‑owned entity under the Tote Board and regulated by the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Ministry of Social and Family Development. As the only authorised provider of 4‑D, Toto, and Singapore Sweep lotteries—as well as legal sports & motor racing betting—it ensures gaming activities are conducted transparently and responsibly.

Singapore Pools: Championing responsible gaming and community reinvestment

Operating as a not‑for‑profit organisation, Singapore Pools channels its surplus to the Tote Board, which, in turn, funds arts, sports, education, and social welfare initiatives across Singapore. In 2023 alone, it contributed approximately S$2 billion in duties and community grants. Moreover, the company actively promotes responsible gambling—evidenced by an 80% increase in self‑exclusions for online accounts and investments in tools to help users set limits .

Singapore Pools: Digital transformation and award‑winning infrastructure

To meet the growing shift toward online betting, Singapore Pools first partnered with IGT in 2022 to implement the Aurora central lottery system. This move ensured stable and high-volume transactions. Subsequently, the company undertook a major IT modernisation initiative, migrating its infrastructure to Oracle Cloud. As a result, automated monitoring increased, uptime improved significantly, and issues were resolved more quickly. Thanks to these advancements, Singapore Pools earned the 2025 SBR Technology Excellence Award for its resilient and innovative data centres.

Singapore Pools: Expanding outreach through partnerships

Singapore Pools recently signed an MoU with Mauritius’s Lottotech to exchange knowledge on talent development, operational efficiency, and market insights. It also supports local NGOs and community initiatives like the President’s Challenge, reflecting its commitment to social responsibility.
