How It Works
PlayLot.com is your secure web site for online entry into the official Powerball lottery! Please read below for an explaination of how it works.
They do not sell or resell lottery tickets - they purchase lottery tickets for you from a state-licensed lottery agent.
All customers must be at least 18 years of age.
For each set of numbers in play ("ticket") the cost is $2.00. That's $1.00 for the ticket and $1.00 for their services. Every time they use the term "ticket" on this site, they are referring to the combined value of the ticket plus their monitoring, notification, and administration services.
Their services include the purchase of lottery tickets from a state-licensed lottery agent, the monitoring of all lottery numbers chosen during your order, e-mail notification of the drawing results, redemption of prizes, and the best customer service in the business.
For each ticket, you can select your own numbers, or you can assign randomly-selected numbers ("Quick Picks").
Minimum order is 5 tickets ($10.00).
The automatic order cutoff time is 1:00 PM Eastern Time the day of the drawing. Orders received after that time will be placed for the following drawing.
All tickets remain in possession of PlayLot.com, and will not be mailed.
No provisions are made with respect to lottery pools or group purchases, although you can make your own private arrangements for that.
Since their services begin immediately once you've placed your order, all sales are final and there are no refunds.
Smaller wins - all prizes under $600 - will be redeemed automatically by them. They will place your winnings in your PlayLot.com account, and you may either withdraw your winnings or apply your winnings towards a future order.
If you win a prize $600 or greater, tehy will forward you an official lottery claim form, which you will fill out, including where you want your check sent, and return to them. They will then submit the form and ticket to the lottery commission, which will send you your check directly. This procedure ensures that the lottery ticket remains safe and secure, and that it is not transported out of the state of purchase.
If you win the jackpot, they will make arrangements to hand you the winning ticket in person so that it may be claimed at lottery headquarters.
If you are unable to claim a prize greater than $600 because of your location (or any other reason), they can make arrangements to claim the prize on your behalf.
"Do they offer a subscription service?"
Yes! When you place your order you will have the opportunity to set up a subscription (multiple drawings).
You will receive an e-mail prior to each drawing in your subscription confirming your participation.
"How secure is my personal and credit card information I send them?"
They use the latest in security measures to ensure the confidentiality of your information. When you use our ordering pages, you'll notice a small "lock" symbol that is normally shown on the bottom of your internet browser. That symbol means that we are using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) security, trusted by thousands of internet merchants, and widely considered completely secure.
