New York Lotto is one of the
biggest lottery games in America, offering
a great combination of huge jackpots with
the better odds of a state lottery game.
New York Lotto gives you millions
of reasons to play — twice a week. All it
takes is a dollar and a dream. You never know,
the next big lotto winner could be you!
How to Play
For each ticket, pick six numbers
from 1 through 59.
Or, have your computer select the numbers
for you by clicking the Fill Blanks with Quick
Picks button.
With our online system you can choose the
number of tickets to play in increments of
10.
You can play the same numbers for more than
one drawing. To play up to 52 consecutive
drawings, choose the number of drawings in
the selection box when you place your order.
Drawings are held Wednesday
and Saturday nights at 11:21 p.m. Eastern
Time, and the results are displayed on NYLotteryOnline.com
minutes after the drawing takes place. You
can place an order until 1:00 p.m. Eastern
Time on the day of the draw.

Prize Payments
Following each drawing, we will automatically
check each ticket played at NYLotteryOnline.com
to determine the winning tickets. All players
will be notified by e-mail of the drawing
results, as well as any prize(s) they have
won. The notification e-mails are normally
sent by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time the morning
after the drawing.
If you win any prize less than
$600, your prize is instantly credited to
your NYLotteryOnline.com online account. You
may then choose to use the funds in your online
account towards a future purchase at NYLotteryOnline.com
or any of our affiliated online lottery sites,
or you may choose to withdraw your funds.
For example, if you win a $100 prize, your
online account will be credited the entire
$100 prize, and you may use that $100 credit
towards purchases at Mega Millions Online,
Powerball Online, Florida Lottery Online,
New York Lottery Online, Euro Millions Online,
El Gordo Online, UK Lottery Online, or any
of our other services. Or, you may request
that we send you the $100.
Because New York requires that
the Cash Option/Annuity Option is selected
at the time lottery tickets are purchased,
we purchase all tickets with the Cash Option.
The Cash Option payout is each jackpot ticket
winner's portion of the prize pool that is
available immediately for investment (approximately
half of the advertised jackpot amount).
