Lotto.com, the nation's first online lottery platform to digitally deliver draw games and scratch tickets, announced today its expansion into Puerto Rico, making the company’s first market launch outside of the contiguous United States. The move allows residents to purchase tickets for popular draw games such as Powerball, Powerplay, Double Play, Loto Cash, and daily games including Pega 2, Pega 3, and Pega 4 via mobile devices or computers.
“The expansion into Puerto Rico represents an exciting chapter for Lotto.com,” said Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com Inc. “We are proud to bring our platform to the island and provide residents with a convenient digital way to participate in lottery draw games, bringing incremental customers and profits to Lotería Electrónica.”
Puerto Rico’s lottery market generated nearly $500 million in sales in fiscal year 2025, reflecting strong player engagement. Lotto.com has already seen success on the island, with over 1,000 winners since launch and nearly 90% of customers returning to play after their first order. The Lotto.com platform aims to expand access to lottery play through a secure and convenient digital solution.
The Lotería Electrónica of Puerto Rico plays a vital role in supporting the island, with proceeds benefiting essential social programs such as education, healthcare initiatives, and infrastructure improvements. Since its inception, the Lotería Electrónica has contributed over $4 billion directly to beneficiaries and public programs including the municipal infrastructure (CRIM), the Catastrophic Emergency Fund, the Puerto Rico Olympic Committee, the Olympic Training and Recreational Center (Albergue Olímpico), Youth Sports Development Programs, and the Rental Assistance and Home Improvement Subsidy Program for Low-Income Elderly Persons.
All prizes under $1,200 in Puerto Rico are deposited directly to the player’s online account. For winnings exceeding $1,200, Lotto.com provides step-by-step support to help customers claim their prizes through the Lotería Electrónica.
Lotto.com currently operates in 11 states including Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Oregon, with plans to expand into more states soon. The company is headquartered in Jersey City, New Jersey, and is the only BBB Accredited lottery courier service, certified by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) and the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG). Lotto.com has over 4 million customers and has created 12 millionaires via state-run games.
