Based in the state capital of Indianapolis, the Hoosier Lottery is Indiana's official state lottery, named after the state's own nickname. State legislators have established lotteries to fund public works and development projects for local communities. The first official scratch-off game, Hoosier Millionaire, launched in October 1989, followed by the debut of the first online game, Lotto Cash, in April 1990. Today, the Hoosier Lottery features draw games like the Hoosier Lotto, Poker Lotto, Powerball, Cash 5, and Mega Millions, along with scratch-off ticket lotteries and mobile games for a variety of play options.
Indiana's official state lottery, the Hoosier Lottery, conducts
several lottery drawings throughout the week for our in-house draw games. The
Hoosier Lottery draws winning numbers daily for the Daily 3, Daily 4, Cash 5,
and Quick Draw lottery games. For the Hoosier Lotto, we hold drawings on
Wednesdays and Saturdays. For multi-state lottery games, Cash4Life conducts
daily drawings, Mega Millions draws numbers on Tuesdays and Fridays, and
Powerball draws on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays.
The price of Hoosier Lottery tickets varies based on the game you
want to participate in. You can purchase Cash 5 or Quick Draw tickets for $1.
Hoosier Lotto, Cash4Life, Mega Millions, and Powerball tickets are $2. Daily 3
and Daily 4 ticket prices depend on your desired wager of either $0.50, $1, $2,
$5, or $10.
No. Lottery ticket purchases are only available at participating
retailers. You can choose your lottery numbers using paper playslips or through
digital playslips through the Hoosier Lottery app on your phone. With the app,
you can choose your numbers, but you'll still need to go to a retailer to
validate your picks and get your tickets.
A playslip is a paper or digital form where you select your
desired numbers for a lottery draw. For paper playslips, shade in the boxes
that represent your number choices. Using digital playslips through the Hoosier
Lottery app allows you to select your numbers with a few clicks. At select
Hoosier Lottery retailers, you may recite your numbers to retailer personnel to
receive your ticket without using a paper playslip.
You can download the Hoosier Lottery app on your iPhone or Android
device through your app store.
With the Hoosier Lottery app, you can build digital
playslips through the myPlayslip feature, which allows you to pick your
desired lottery numbers on your mobile device to validate at your local lottery
retailer. You can check your lottery tickets instantly by scanning them with
your phone's camera to see if you've won. Using the Hoosier Lottery app
