What Is the Vermont Lottery?

The Vermont Lottery is a state-run program where you buy tickets for a chance to win money. It offers several different games—some are only in Vermont, and others are played across the whole country. Think of it like a big raffle: you pick numbers (or let a computer pick for you), and if your numbers match the ones drawn, you win a prize.


Games You Can Play in Vermont

Here are the main games available:

  • National Games (played in many states):
    • Powerball
    • Mega Millions
  • Tri-State Games (shared with New Hampshire and Maine):
    • Mega Bucks (different from the national Mega Millions)
    • Gimme 5
    • Pick 3 (Day & Evening)
    • Pick 4 (Day & Evening)
  • Vermont-Only Games:
    • Lucky for Life
    • Millionaire for Life

Quick Tip: Each game has its own rules, odds, and prize amounts. You can learn more on the Vermont Lottery website.

How It Works:

  1. Register on the Vermont Lottery website or app.
  2. Enter the code from your eligible losing scratch ticket.
  3. Wait for the drawing—they happen quarterly (every 3 months) or during special promotions.
  4. Drawings are run by Pollard Banknote Limited in Winnipeg, Canada.

Why it’s cool: It’s like getting a free second lottery ticket!

If you didn’t sign it, anyone who finds it can claim the prize. Always sign your ticket right after purchase! Without a signed ticket, you cannot prove it’s yours.
