Online lottery courier service Jackpot.com has announced its launch in Colorado. On the heels of the Colorado Lottery's 40th anniversary last year, the Centennial State will feature both draw games and 'scratchers' (digital scratch-off games).
Jackpot.com's online platform and app allow individuals to order official state lottery tickets and scratchers from their mobile phones and other devices, including tickets for nationwide games such as Mega Millions and Powerball, as well as state lottery games including Cash 5, Pick 3, Lucky 4 Life, and more.
The platform purchases tickets on behalf of its customers from an official state lottery retailer, displaying a scan of their ticket and transferring winnings under $600 in real-time to their account. For prizes greater than $600, Jackpot.com delivers the ticket to the winning player so they can collect the winnings from the Colorado Lottery.
"At Jackpot.com, we remain committed to growing the safe and secure access to the lottery across the country and we could not be more excited to add Colorado as our seventh state," said Jackpot.com CEO and co-founder, Akshay Khanna.
"Last year, the Colorado Lottery reached $4 billion in proceeds and they give back millions of dollars each year to state parks, schools, and various projects. They're also notably invested in responsible gaming, which has been a staple at Jackpot.com since its inception. We can't wait to become part of the Colorado community and provide an accessible and reliable lottery experience for players."

In addition to lottery games, Jackpot.com will launch with five of the most popular scratchers in Colorado, including $3,000,000 Supreme, Casino Ca$h Chips, $250,000 ORO, and more. In these games, customers have to ‘scratch’ their device screen with their finger or mouse to reveal their scanned ticket and potential winnings.
Jackpot.com says that it delivers the industry's fastest online lottery scratch card experience after undergoing a comprehensive business process review by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), which ensures its method for ordering and processing lottery scratch tickets is accurate and functions as expected for both Jackpot.com and the player.
This year marks the Colorado Lottery's fourth consecutive year generating a new sales record, amassing over $900 million in revenue. This year's success translates to more than $196 million in funds allocated to beneficiaries throughout the state. Since its first ticket sale in 1983, the Lottery has allocated over $4.2 billion to good causes across the state.
