Arkansans Can Now Order Lottery Tickets from Home
Jackpocket Offers Lottery Players a Safer Option Amidst COVID-19 Precautions
Little Rock - Now more than ever, consumers are looking for ways to recreate their daily routines from home. Launching today in Arkansas, Jackpocket is a mobile app that gives players an easy, secure way to order official state lottery tickets from their smartphones. With Jackpocket, Arkansans can now play the lottery, and even collect prize winnings, without leaving the house.
In Arkansas, players can order tickets for well-known favorites including Mega Millions, Powerball, Lucky for Life, Cash 3, Cash 4, and Natural State Jackpot. Arkansas is Jackpocket's ninth state launch following Colorado, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Ohio, Texas, and Washington, DC.
In addition to convenience, the Jackpocket app provides a new way to play the lottery through features that include:
- Jackpocket Pools: Players can create lottery pools with friends and family or join lottery pools with thousands of other Jackpocket players across multiple jurisdictions. (Colorado, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Minnesota, Oregon, Ohio, Texas, and Washington, D.C.)
- Autoplay: Players can create "Autoplays" to automatically enter drawings for the lottery games of their choice.
- Responsible Gaming: Consumer protections like daily deposit and spend limits, self-exclusion, and in-app access to problem gambling resources ensure responsible play.
Jackpocket is available through the Winners Corner retail location in Little Rock.
Players can place ticket orders, check lottery results, join lottery pools with friends and family, and manage their tickets - all in one app. Arkansans can use promo code "HELLOAR" for $2 free ticket credit upon funding their account.
"Jackpocket gives players a safe, convenient option for playing the lottery games they know and love from home," said Jackpocket Founder and CEO Peter Sullivan. "Launching in Arkansas was a natural fit, and we look forward to helping the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery drive additional revenue supporting college scholarships."
The new way to play is welcomed by the state, which has been experiencing a decrease in draw ticket sales due to the economic climate caused by COVID19.
Since 2009, the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery has raised more than $930 million in proceeds for scholarships and awarded over 542,000 college scholarships to Arkansans.
The app is now available for download on iOS or Android. For more information, visit jackpocket.com.
