Hello Rajendra,

Thank you for your review!

If any of our customers is the lucky winner of a Jackpot prize, TheLotter will take the winner to the location where the ticket was purchased to collect the prize in person.

For secondary prizes, when the official lottery does not require the winner’s physical presence, the prize will be transferred directly to the winner’s account. The timeframe for payment may vary; however, we will ensure that our winner receives full support and assistance throughout the process to claim their prize as quickly as possible.

Please find below the full guide with information about Powerball and many more details you may be interested in.

Stay away

I am trying to get back my balance of 50 unsuccessfully euro since 2 months. They are doing everything not to transfer my money back as if I am requesting not 50 euro but thousands. For expmple they request a picture of front and back of my credit card. Imagine if you have more money on your account. You will never get them back. Update: I got my 50 euro back after 40 days and a bunch of documents requested from their side. So when you deposit they need only a credit card. But when you withdraw they need bank account certificates, pictures of your id and credit cards, proof of adress etc. I was their customer for 20 years. And thanks God that I tried to withdraw these 50 euros to understand to quality of their service. Now I am deleting my account.

Oregon lottery keno is not too be trusted as a fair gambling game, extremely high house odds, professional gamblers deem Oregon lottery keno is like a stacked deck and loaded dice game suckers bet. We recently played 200 consecutive games with the same numbers. The return on are money was 8 dollars. That's a 190 percent profit for the lottery. This game needs to be removed from the lottery showing no fairness to the players. Do not play Oregon lottery keno it's not as 🪟 as the lottery states it is

Hi Leon,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your negative experience.

However, we would like to clarify that TheLotter.com does not offer or operate Oregon Lottery Keno, nor are we affiliated with the operation or management of Oregon Lottery Keno games. It appears your review may have been intended for the official Oregon Lottery rather than our service.

As your review references a product and experience unrelated to TheLotter.com, we kindly ask that you consider removing or updating the review to reflect the correct provider. This will help ensure feedback reaches the appropriate organization and prevents confusion for other customers.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best of luck,

Entendemos que esta política pode ser diferente do que você esperava e pedimos desculpas por qualquer inconveniente causado.

Worst experience online. Even worst than Chinese e-commerce businesses.

I tried to make a withdrawal on the 31st of January. Their website stated it would take 1 to 3 days. When six days past anf I didn't get my money I contacted customer support. They said its 5 to 7 business days. Then a couple days later, I get an email saying my withdrawal was canceled. Now I've been trying to contact them for over an hour now and no such luck. Now it seems I just lost my money.

I am concern about people buying…

I am concern about people buying international lottery from online sources like Thelotter and others etc please note, these platforms are just taking your money they will never give it back to you even if they cannot pay common $60.00 what do you think will happen if you do hit $1,000.000.00 or more You will never get it . In the first place read the terms: it states they are the sole owners of the ticket you pay for. That means if you even win anything you cannot claim it because you do not own that ticket legally. You are just a cash cow for their business. If you read any sweet review know that that came from a member or friends of that platforms who do have some direct or indirect benefits from the income.
If you ever want to buy any international lottery, get a friend in that region to buy a ticket in the main draw with that you are sure of getting paid when you win

Hello Anthony,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and we're sorry to hear you have that perception of our services.

We understand the importance of transparency in today's lottery websites, and we assure you that we will continue to be vigilant in our efforts to keep our services trustworthy.

Please note that we are a respected and reputable ticket messenger service with a proven track record and satisfied customers. We have been in the industry for around 20 years. Over the years, we have paid out more than $130 million in prizes to over 9 million winners from across the globe. Everyone is also welcome to check the stories of some of our winners in the "magazine" section.

When you purchase a lottery ticket at TheLotter, you receive three proofs of purchase establishing your legal right to the ticket and the prize if you win: a confirmation email; the participation information stored in your account; and a copy of the scanned ticket with your unique number selection. In some lotteries, however, we provide a reasonable facsimile of the tickets for operational reasons.

We have no legal claim to our tickets, and not a single legal complaint has been filed to suggest otherwise. Our entire operation is geared towards ensuring that we uphold our reputation as the world's leading online lottery ticket purchasing service and pay out players' full winnings as quickly as possible.

If our response is completely satisfactory to you, we ask that you consider updating your review. Your opinion is important to us and helps other customers feel confident in choosing our services.

I withdrew US$24 from The Lotter

I withdrew US$24 from The Lotter. The withdrawal was approved on 16 Dec 2025 at 8:17 (Confirmation No. 541902). However, two months have passed and I have not received the money in my bank account—not even a single baht.

I have tried contacting The Lotter’s support staff, and they stated that the withdrawal has already been approved. However, when I asked for proof of the transfer to my bank account, The Lotter was unable to provide any such evidence for me to verify with the receiving bank.

The Lotter is a fraudulent website and does not actually allow withdrawals even when you win a prize.

Dear The Lotter Support Team,

On February 18, 2026, I received an email from The Lotter informing me that my ATM card ending in **4862 could not be used to process the withdrawal transaction. As a result, the amount of approximately $24 was transferred to my credit card ending in *6114.

However, the card ending in *6114 is a credit card, not an ATM/debit card. I am unable to withdraw cash from this card. Furthermore, the transferred amount was automatically applied toward the outstanding balance on that credit card, which means I could not access or use the $24 at all.

This situation raises serious concerns. If, in the future, I were to win a larger prize—for example, $1,000,000—I would face the same issue and would not be able to withdraw the funds if they were transferred to the same credit card. The card ending in *6114 is strictly for purchases and does not allow cash withdrawals.

In addition, your team did not initially provide proof of the transfer. I had to spend several months sending follow-up emails to track the status of my $24 prize. This has caused unnecessary delays and inconvenience, and reflects a lack of professionalism in handling withdrawals.

I respectfully request that The Lotter transfer my winnings to my ATM/debit card so that I can access and use the funds immediately without restriction.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and a proper resolution.

Sincere

Great experience but need translation to Spanish so I don’t make mistakes

My experience was great but I’m not English fluid so when I won $26 dollars instead of charging that quantity to my credit card I charge that quantity to my account and I spent money instead of earning money and the exchange rate is very high so the quantity in my national currency is very high, that was the only inconvenience.

First time withrawing a prize after patronizing their business for two years, it is very difficult. They want your bets, but will not honor your win.

For the past two years playing on the platform, i would only win at most 10 usd, so i would just re-bet those. But i recently won 60 dollars from a Spanish lottery. I've withrawn 50 and to support the platform, i bet 10. I was told to expect 3-5 days.

On the 6th day, the status is still pending. I asked the agents why its taking too long and they instantly reply with the template "huge volume request" as they do with other patrons.

What a dishonest business.

Update: Feb 13.

The Lotter wishes to edit my review.

No, i want to express my dissatisfaction at the service and i want everyone to know. It didn't matter to them that i was a regular patron. It was already difficult for me to make a withdrawal for 50 USD, what is my security and assurance in withrawing for a much larger winning.

I was only entertained because i made a negative review here.

Good Bye. No more business from me. I'm sure i am not your loss.
