theLotter opened its business as the first online lottery in 2002 and introduced as the first one the scanning of official lottery tickets.  TheLotter acts as a courier service of official paper tickets purchased in each country from an authorised dealer at a official retailer shop.

Thanks to the long-term growth and rich experience in the online lottery business the Lotter offers its services without having to subtract commission from your prize money. TheLotter offers at its website syndicate lottery only. Nevertheless, you can choose from 21 of the top lottery games from around the world, including the biggest and most popular ones.

Scanning of official lottery tickets

TheLotter buys tickets with your numbers and chosen options directly from licensed dealers in a specific country through its branches all over the world. After the purchase an authorised company representative will scan the ticket to your account to prove that you are the owner of the ticket. The scanned copy contains your chosen numbers, order number, date, time, place of purchase and also a unique series number of the ticket. You can check the correctness of all data with the official lottery operator.  After completing the scanning process, the ticket will be placed in a safe deposit at the local branch.

Syndicate only

TheLotter offers playing lotteries in groups only.  So, you cannot buy a standard lottery ticket just for yourself. Yet, if syndicate is exactly what you are looking for you are in the right place.

Syndicate increases your chances to win the dreamy jackpot.

A great advantage of this kind of games is that you don’t have to seek people to form a team. All what you do is choose a lottery on the web, pick the number of shares and play in anonymity with all other players from the UK. You don’t have to know each other, you don’t have to close any syndicate contract and the money will be distributed automatically by theLotter.

What is syndicate lottery

Lottery syndicate is a group of players who gather their money to buy a load of lottery tickets. Each player owns a share in the winnings proportionate to how much money he or she contributed to the syndicate.

More details about lottery syndicate and the packages can be found at our special syndicate page.

Types of available syndicate games

Each syndicate has a certain number of lines. These numbers are picked randomly  or using a pattern. The type of game determining the picked numbers is marked in colour (see picture on the left-hand side). Let’s briefly describe these types:

Orange – Random Selection

Each line offers randomly selected numbers.

Brown  – Systematic

The number for each line represents a combination of pre-selected fixed numbers. For example, you can get all kinds of combinations of 8,15,17,22 and 36.

Red – Additional Numbers Match Guaranteed

This type of games is offered by lotteries that enable drawing of additional numbers. The system of choosing these numbers guarantees at least one drawn number. The rest of the main numbers is chosen randomly.

Green – Guaranteed Number Match

There is one number from each line that will change. This changing number contains all possible numbers from the pool, which guarantees the minimum of one match in each game. The rest of the numbers is selected randomly.

VIP Club and bonuses

A great benefit of the VIP club is  that it helps you save a lot of your money. All what you have to do is to start collecting bonus points. The more VIP points, the bigger your discount. You will receive the points immediately after the first bet; in return for each single dollar spent online you will get one VIP point!

Do not forget to use „Special offers“, attached to the website’s right side (margin). You will find there a list of all current discounts and bonuses.

Safety and security

theLotter ‘s website is absolutely safe. Your personal and payment details are saved in an encrypted form with a 128bit protocol SSL, protected by  GeoTrust certificate using HTTPS protocol and are accessible only after the entering of a valid user name and password.

Guaranteed payout

As stated in the service terms and conditions, lottery tickets are owned by the player not theLotter. theLotter provides solely courier services and has no legal claim to your tickets. More, you have clear evidence of being the owner (the buyer) in the form of confirmation e-mail. Your transaction history is permanently stored on your account and as a plus you get a scanned copy of your ticket, a tangible proof of being the owner. The scanned copy contains your chosen numbers, information on the draw/s and a unique series number of the ticket. A legal agreement, a receipt and a scanned copy of a real ticket constitute a proof that you are the legal holder of the ticket. You can check the authenticity of your ticket anytime with the official lottery operator.

theLotter’s mobile application

With theLotter’s mobile app you can play your favourite lotteries from all over the world regardless of your current destination. With the application you will get instant access to the recently drawn numbers. Also you can use a popular function of the world’s top lottery jackpot, same as at our website.  Last but not least, you should remember that with the mobile app you can play any lottery from almost every place in the world.

In the application you can set up NOTE and REMINDER not to miss any important draw or offerings and discounts from  theLotter. You can download the application for free from Appstore for iPhones and from theLotter website for Android.

Support

If you encounter any problem (which is very unlikely to happen) all what you have to do is to contact an agile and friendly support team. You can choose one of three options: live chat, e-mail or – if the issue is acute – phone call.

More about theLotter

The system is easy. From theLotter’s website you can choose any lottery to play. One of the representatives of any of the 25 branches placed worldwide will buy a ticket for the respective lottery and upload it onto your user account.

How will I get my prize?

Small wins will be withdrawn and transferred to your user account within 24 hours from the official announcement of the results. You can choose whether you want to get the prize money sent to your account or leave it for future games. If your winnings are high enough to be subject to tax in a specific country or state theLotter will notify you in advance and the money will be delivered to your website within 15 days from receiving the budget from the official lottery operator.

If you win the jackpot one member of the customer support team will immediately get in touch with you to arrange the collection of your prize money. theLotter bears the travel expenses to the place where the ticket was purchased and the branch manager will give you a winning paper ticket. The whole deLotter team will then fly you out to the lottery’s headquarters to pick up your jackpot in person.

There is a quick and concise video at top of page. Video explain the system of online betting with theLotter.

Verdict

Online courier of lottery tickets used by theLotter  is very reliable and safe with a long history and tens of thousands of happy customers.  We gave theLotter a lot of points for its scanning of official paper tickets found in the user account. Another great plus is the magnitude and diversity of lottery games from all over the world on the portfolio. No commission is subtracted from the winner’ s prize money (paid in the price of the ticket). All the mentioned pros are somewhat compromised  by only syndicates betting. You can’t place classic bet.
