Play the Lottery Online

You can now play the lottery online in a few clicks of your mouse. And millions of Americans do, everyday. There are many reasons why people play the lottery online; the most obvious being the convenience factor. The Internet makes it very easy to find and purchase tickets online, and it’s fast and convenient.

Online lotteries aren’t entirely legal in all states and countries, but that’s not the case anymore. For instance, in states like Arizona, you’re not allowed to purchase lottery tickets over the Internet. If you want to play the lottery online in such states, then you need to go down to your local Division of Motor Vehicles or Department of Revenue office and purchase an active ticket from them. (You can also show a photo ID and proof of residence.) Even then, you may be under investigation, so have a lawyer or an agent with you to vouch for you, if you think you might need it.

Most importantly, remember that just because a site is licensed doesn’t mean it will have good odds of winning. It’s true that you can buy most of the lottery games you can find on the Internet at lower prices, but you still need to play the games intelligently and smartly to increase your chances of winning. Most people who buy unlicensed sites and tickets get so many extra prizes that they end up paying state and federal taxes on the winnings they’ve made, and then some. So the rule of thumb when playing the lottery online in these unlicensed sites: play fair and don’t get caught!
