Lotto.com Expands into Puerto Rico, Marking First Market Outside Contiguous U.S.

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 marks a significant milestone for the company as it extends its digital lottery services beyond the mainland.

“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.” Lotto.com currently offers only draw games in Puerto Rico, with players able to participate in popular games such as Powerball®, Powerplay, Double Play, Loto Cash (with Multiplicador and Revancha X2), and daily favorites including Pega 2, Pega 3, and Pega 4 from their preferred mobile device or computer.

Puerto Rico’s lottery market in Fiscal Year 2025 brought in nearly $500 million in sales, reflecting a strong and engaged player base. Lotto.com has already seen massive success on the island, with over 1,000 winners since launch, and nearly 90% of customers returning to play after their first order. 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.
