The CT Lottery is pleased to announce a new experience for players with the introduction of the iLottery platform. Players can participate in the fun of online lottery and their favorite draw games by visiting ctilottery.org or by downloading the CT Lottery mobile app on the iOS platform (Android app to follow next month). The app comes with exciting new features that allow players to personalize their lottery experience, such as saving favorite numbers and wagers, grouping preferred games for easy purchasing, and setting limits for wagering and time spent on the app.  Along with these features, the CT Lottery mobile app will still include the ability to view winning numbers, scan lottery tickets purchased at retail to check if they have won, and much more. 

With today’s launch, Connecticut becomes the 11th state to offer online Lottery sales.  

“iLottery gives Connecticut residents a convenient and secure way to play lottery games, whether choosing the every-four-minutes speed of KENO, the huge, life changing jackpots available through Powerball and Mega Millions, or the twice-a-day Play3 & Play4,” said Greg Smith, President and CEO of the CT Lottery.  “In addition to our 2,800 retailer locations, iLottery allows you to pretty much play anytime and anywhere you are. Lottery scratch tickets are only available in retail so be sure to shop retail too.”

The following games are available through iLottery:
• KENO
• Powerball
• Mega Millions
• Lucky for Life
• Lotto
• Cash5
• Play3 and Play4

You must be at least 18 years old to create an iLottery account. Once registered, players can deposit funds via debit card, credit card, or bank account into a secure iLottery wallet. Most wins will be credited directly back to a player’s account after the drawing occurs. Full iLottery prize claim information is available on the CT Lottery website.
 
To celebrate the iLottery launch, the CT Lottery is offering new promotions that award free lottery tickets and credits towards future wagers.  

Responsible gaming has long been one of CT Lottery’s core values.  There are numerous ways for iLottery players to control their access, wagering, and time spent on the platform.  Players can reach out for problem gambling assistance by calling the 24-hour helpline 888-789-7777 or visiting CCPG.org.
