How to Play Lottery Games Online
Entering a lottery draw online is easier and more convenient than purchasing a ticket from a store. It’s also more secure. If you’re wondering exactly how this process works, we’re here to break it down for you.
A few state lotteries sell tickets directly on their official websites. In other locations, you are using a licensed courier service to purchase a ticket on your behalf. On our site, Jackpot.com acts as the official courier ensuring your ticket is securely stored and winnings are sent swiftly into your digital account.

How to Play at Jackpot.com
On our Tickets page, you will see a selection of lotteries that are available for you to play online. Find your preferred game and press ‘Enter Now’ to get started.
This will take you to Jackpot.com - our lottery courier - where you can order your ticket. You will have to create an account if you’re a new user.
This is your chance to choose your numbers, pick how many draws you want to play, add any optional extras such as Power Play - all the selections you would have to make if you decided to fill out a playslip in-store.
Once your order is complete, Jackpot.com's fulfillment team will purchase a ticket with your chosen numbers and ticket settings.
Tickets Kept Safe
The fulfilment operations team will then print off your digital ticket. They take a scan of the image and upload it into your Jackpot.com account as a proof of purchase. You can view this digital image anytime via the website or app.
The fulfilment team will then take your paper ticket back to Jackpot.com's in-state facility, where it is securely stored in a fireproof safe.
How You Receive Winnings
As soon as the draw takes place your tickets will be automatically checked and verified to see if you’ve won a prize!
If you have won a prize worth $600 or under then your winnings will be sent straight into your Jackpot.com account - where it is ready to be spent on more tickets or withdrawn!
If you have won a prize over $600 then Jackpot.com will make arrangements to securely send back your winning ticket. Your prize can then be collected from a lottery district office, by mail or in person.
