Playing lotto online

    I played the lotto for the first time online.

    I won a scratch card in tonights lotto, but how do I get it ? Does anyone know, has anyone played online before?

    I'm used to the old fashioned way of playing in a shop, going in the day after the draw and picking up my miserable prize.

    But how do I get my scratch card from the online account. It doesn't say anywhere in any FAQ on how to claim your prize.

    Does anyone know?

    You have to go in to a lottery retailer with a screenshot of your win, they are obliged under the lottery act of 2011 (and their own game rules) to give you a scratch card to the value stated on the screen.

    Do not let them fob you off. That's your money they're withholding man.

    Lotto.ie will post a youtube video of someone scrating a scratch card on your behalf.

    But seriously, you get the cash equivalent added to your account. You will get an email titled "We have excitng news rom Lotto.ie" or something like that.

    You don't get a scratch card, you just get a euro credited to your wallet.

    This. You then just scratch the screen with a coin or what have you.

    Do they email you to tell you you've won the jackpot?

    I'd probably delete that as spam!

    You get an email telling you that you should log on to check your account for some important info.

    Same email for 2euro or 2 million euro.
