According to the executive, online lottery play offers both “convenience and safety,” with all past winners having successfully claimed their prize money and collected their winnings, “which has strongly aided the trust” customers have developed in theLotter.
theLotter Minnesota provides its customers with a host of unique functionalities, “none of which are available in-store,” says the company, from subscriptions to special multi-draw packages; from offers such as every tenth ticker free to real-time jackpot alerts. The website also offers the facility to see a scan of the actual paper ticket a client has purchased.
“When a client wins any prize at all, we notify them; winnings of up to $600 are transferred directly to a client’s account. Prizes over that amount can be collected in person at offices of the Minnesota Lottery,” adds Daniel. “It’s that level of transparency and security which has inspired the trust customers have in us. I am certain Minnesotans will embrace our service in a similar fashion.”
