Play lottery, check results, and claim wins on the go

Jackpocket app available in 21 U.S. states

Jackpocket lets users buy official state lottery tickets through its mobile app. It operates in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The app does not offer casino games, slots, or live dealer tables. Only state-run lotteries like Powerball, Mega Millions, and scratch-offs are available.

Designed for lottery players, not gamblers

Jackpocket’s interface is simple: pick numbers, pay with a card or PayPal, and get a scanned copy of your physical ticket. No bonuses, no spins, no jackpots that reset daily. The average user buys two tickets per month and spends $6.30 total. The app does not target high-risk players. Its terms forbid deposits over $500 in seven days. Users must be 18 or older and located within state borders when purchasing.

Security in the Jackpocket app

  • Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and Jackpocket’s servers is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption.
  • Payment protection: Payments are processed through third-party providers like Stripe and PayPal; Jackpocket never stores your card details.
  • Biometric login: You can enable Touch ID or Face ID to unlock the app, but a passcode is required as a fallback.
  • Account monitoring: The system flags unusual activity, such as login attempts from new devices or locations, and requires manual confirmation.
