Eastern Time (GMT-5:00) | Michigan Lottery gears up for online sales in spring Michigan Lottery: Michigan Lottery gears up for online sales in spring53 Rating:LANSING, Mich. — The Michigan Lottery plans to begin selling online subscriptions for games such as Mega Millions and Powerball starting this spring. The state says the move will bring in more revenue for schools and improve the lottery experience, but some businesses are concerned it will hurt in-store ticket sales. Daily 3, Daily 4 and Club Keno would not be part of the initial program, which allows customers to sign up for multiple ticket purchases over a period of time. A new system called iLottery would begin offering online sales of single tickets and instant games near the end of the year. Gov. Rick Snyder's budget calls for $3.3 million to launch iLottery, which could include online, mobile and tablet applications. Detroit Free Press We'd love to see your comments here!

We had MM online for a while, but you have to give your ss # and thats a big turnoff. Did'nt hurt store sales.  and make your last check bounce.

If your credit card doesn't clear they will break your knee caps. I was just wondering if they would allow people to use their EBT cards to buy lottery on line, Gas stations, have ATM'S , Many have EBT Cash, so thats how they buy lottery, others will make a food purchase, then the clerk will do a cash refund, ta da, How to turn your childrens food money into lottery tickets, it's magic! | | |
