Whether you’re in the office, at your child’s sports game, or on the go, lottery online makes it convenient to play your favorite games. Plus, you can always check your results – and get your winning notifications – no matter where you are! And the best part? Online lottery games don’t cannibalize traditional lottery sales.
Purchasing lottery tickets online is legal in 10 states, and more are coming! Find out if your state is among them.
Most lottery websites and apps use your location to ensure you’re a resident of the state or country where you’re playing. This information also helps lottery retailers keep track of who is playing where and how much they’re spending.
Lottery odds are calculated based on how many numbers are drawn and the probability of each number being selected. The higher the prize, the more numbers you’ll need to choose correctly to win. For example, if you’re playing the Powerball or Mega Millions lottery, your chances of winning are 1 in 292,870,366. However, if you want to increase your chances of winning, try a smaller lottery game with fewer numbers like a state pick-3.
With the Pennsylvania Lottery app, you can play fun eInstant games on your computer, laptop, iPhone or iPad (excluding mobile browsers). You can also purchase official Draw Games such as Powerball and Mega Millions from anywhere in the US — including at home! And when you win, the money is credited directly to your account.
