Question

Do you have to return to the state from which you bought the ticket to claim the prize?

Community Answer

You do NOT have to cash the ticket at the same store, but you do have to cash the ticket in the same state. You can claim any prize - and prizes over $600 - at the state lottery headquarters. You also can claim winning tickets by mail.

Can I purchase a lottery ticket online if I live in India? How would I pay for it, and where would I claim the prize if I win?

Community Answer

Yes, you can purchase a ticket online from India. Various platforms offer online ticketing services and accept multiple forms of payment, including credit and debit cards, internet banking, and digital wallets. For claiming the prize, the process depends on the rules of the event or service. Usually, winnings are directly transferred to your account or digital wallet. However, for larger prizes, you may need to visit the issuing office or complete additional verification procedures. Always ensure to follow the specific guidelines provided at the time of the ticket purchase.
