Section 874.8. Lottery raffle game purchase and ticket characteristics  


Latest version.
  • (a) To purchase a ticket, a player shall request an on-line retailer to issue a ticket. The ticket, at a minimum, will contain one chance or play which shall consist of one unique, computer-generated, multiple-digit number from the range of numbers published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin for that particular raffle, the drawing date, amount bet and validation data. The ticket shall be the only valid proof of the bet placed, and the only valid receipt for claiming a prize. The ticket shall only be valid for the drawing date printed on the ticket.

    (b) A raffle lottery game ticket may not be canceled or voided once printed by the Lottery terminal, even if the ticket is printed in error.

    (c) It is the sole responsibility of the ticket holder to verify the accuracy and condition of data printed on the ticket. The placing of plays through the on-line retailer, who is acting on behalf of the player in entering the chance or plays, is done at the player’s own risk.
