TheLotter review

TheLotter has sold lottery tickets online since 2002 and holds a licence from the Malta Gaming Authority. It sells the big jackpot draws, Powerball, Mega Millions, EuroMillions and EuroJackpot among them, and national games such as Mega Sena, Melate and Mark Six.

Two things are not on file with us yet: what it charges per line over the official price, and whether your account shows a scan of the ticket before the draw. Check both before you pay.

TheLotter was founded in 2002 and holds a licence from Malta Gaming Authority.

TheLotter accepts 11 deposit methods and 5 withdrawal methods.

Panel Verdict

Our verdict on TheLotter

TheLotter has been online since 2002 and works under a licence from the Malta Gaming Authority. Its list of lotteries is broad: the US, European and Australian jackpot games, plus national draws from Latin America, Europe and Asia.

Its focus markets are Australia, Mexico and Sweden. Our data shows no local licence in Sweden or Mexico, so a player there buys from a site regulated in Malta, not by the national regulator.

Paying in is easy, with 11 methods that include Visa, MasterCard, Skrill, Neteller, Trustly and Sofort. Getting paid has fewer routes: 5 methods, from bank transfer to Skrill and Neteller.

The odds of a line are set by the lottery's own draw, not by the site that sells it. What changes from seller to seller is the price per line, and we do not have TheLotter's line prices on file yet.

Panel Questions

TheLotter: questions

Is TheLotter legit?

TheLotter has sold lottery tickets online since 2002 and states a licence from the Malta Gaming Authority. We have not confirmed the licence on the regulator's register, so look up the number in the site footer before you deposit. Our guide to lottery scams shows how to check a seller's licence.

Is TheLotter licensed in Sweden?

Not in our data. TheLotter names Sweden as a focus market, but its licence is from Malta, not from the Swedish regulator. The same goes for Mexico.

How do I withdraw winnings from TheLotter?

TheLotter pays out by bank transfer, Visa, MasterCard, Skrill or Neteller. That is 5 withdrawal methods against 11 for deposits, so pay in with a method you can also be paid with.

Which currencies does TheLotter accept?

US Dollar, Euro, British Pound, Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Swiss Franc, South African Rand, Indian Rupee and Russian Ruble.

Does buying at TheLotter change my odds?

No. The odds of a line are set by the lottery's draw, not by the site that sells it. What the site sets is the price per line, and we will show TheLotter's price next to the official one once it is on file. Our lottery odds guide compares jackpot odds across the big games.

Set the spend before you pick the numbers.

Most lottery lines win nothing. Decide a monthly amount you can lose, and use the deposit limits on the site you play at.
