Michigan Lottery

Many states limit the purchase of lottery tickets to retail venue visits. Luckily, Michigan has gone ahead to modernize things a bit. Here on, Michigan residents and state visitors can get their tickets both in stores and online.

Online ticket sales are available for the standard lottery games already mentioned in the article, as well as for a couple of additional online opportunities. These include instant games (King of Clubs, Queen of Diamonds, Instant Keno Multiplier, Blackjack Doubler, VIP Gold, etc.), Fast Cash games (20X the Cash, Black Jack, Bowling Bucks) and pull tab games ($15,000 Jackpot, Bank Buster, Big Win, Bigfoot’s Fortune, Lucky 7s, Neon Bars, etc.).

The diversity is huge and you can easily get lost on their website. Ticket costs range from $0.05 and the most expensive game entries go up to over $20 for Club Keno. Players can win both the progressive jackpots with the standard lottery games and fixed amounts in the range from 5,000 to over one million dollars.

There were many complaints about the website being slow and there have also been some online reports of the exclusive online games being rigged. According to 2015 data, 86,000 people had signed up for the online ticket buying option within five months of it being launched. Current data suggest that online players are spending $2.4 million a week on the online lotteries! This is a huge number and these people have a legitimate reason to complain if the website isn’t working well or if the number of winning options is limited.

Remember that Michigan online Lottery is a state-operated unit that has a status to maintain. Adding to it, it’s already winning huge from the winning of tickets. Imagine the scandal that would break out if anything was rigged. Thus, while online games may be very difficult to win, they are legitimate. If you have concerns about those, just stick to the state-wide lotteries – these provide enough of an opportunity for monetization.

There a couple of VIP programs organized by Michigan Lottery. VIP black and VIP gold are very famous out of them. For these programs, you need to select the number of tickets you want to play.

Then, select the cost of the ticket. It varies from $0.05 to $2. The game starts by purchasing. Once purchased, click Scratch all or click each ticket manually. If any Michigan Lottery number matches your ticket number, you are entitled to win the prize shown on the ticket. The maximum amount you can win ranges from $30,000 – $60,000.
