lotto.com-announces-support-of-problem-gambling-awareness-month

JERSEY CITY, N.J., March 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lotto.com, in collaboration with the National Council on Problem Gambling (“NCPG”), recognizes March as Problem Gambling Awareness Month (PGAM). The annual observance of PGAM provides an essential platform for organizations across the country to highlight the availability of resources that support problem gambling prevention, education, treatment, and recovery.

Lotto.com is proud to have received its Internet Compliance Assessment Program (“iCAP”) accreditation from NCPG in 2021 for best practices in online player protection even prior to the company’s first state launch. Not just during March but all year round, Lotto.com is steadfast in its commitment to trusted practices and responsible online lottery play by enforcing player limits, offering self exclusion tools and following risk management and compliance protocols in every jurisdiction in which it operates. Furthermore the Company holds licenses in every state that formally regulates lottery couriers and is a member of the North American Association of State & Provincial Lotteries (NASPL).

This year’s PGAM theme, “Seeking Understanding,” focuses on increasing awareness of problem gambling as a serious but often misunderstood mental health condition. The campaign seeks to foster greater awareness and empathy, break down barriers to treatment, and provide support for individuals and families impacted by gambling-related harm.

As the nation’s first online lottery platform to digitally deliver official state lottery draw games and scratch tickets, Lotto.com recognizes the important conversation around problem gambling and responsible gaming. The company will continue to spread the word about the resources available for those dealing with problem gambling.

“Educating our players and the lottery industry is very important to our team at Lotto.com,” shares Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com Inc. “Our commitment is rooted in empowering individuals at every level of our organization with the knowledge, training and tools they need to navigate the lottery landscape responsibly. Through this, we aim to enhance security, build trust, and continue to contribute to a positive lottery experience.”

Partnership Raises Funds for Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance Through Special One-Day LOTTO Ticket Sales

JERSEY CITY, N.J., Nov. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lotto.com, the nation’s first online lottery platform to digitally deliver draw games and scratch tickets, and the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery (ASL) have donated $5,000 to the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance following a successful one-day fundraising initiative. All proceeds from Arkansas’ LOTTO game ordered on Lotto.com on Wednesday, October 29, were donated to the nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing food insecurity across the state.

“At Lotto.com, we’re proud to partner with the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery on initiatives that go beyond creating winners—they create positive change,” said Kweku Sapara-Grant, Director of External Affairs for Lotto.com. “While our sales help support key state programs like the ASL’s Scholarship Fund, we believe our responsibility goes further. We strive to make a positive impact in every community we enter. Thank you to the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery and the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance for the opportunity to be part of this initiative and showing what’s possible when communities and organizations come together.”

“We were honored to support the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance through our promotion with Lotto.com,” said ASL Executive Director Sharon Strong. “According to a recent study by Honors Arkansas, an estimated 41% of Arkansas college students have been unable to focus in class due to limited food intake. This partnership with Lotto.com expands our commitment to higher education through our efforts to combat college hunger and provide additional support to student success.”

“We are so grateful to Lotto.com and the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery for this generous donation,” said Sylvia Blain, CEO of the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance. “This $5,000 gift will help us tackle hunger among college students across Arkansas, ensuring that students have the nutritious meals they need to focus on their education and thrive on campus. It’s inspiring to see Arkansans come together to support students in need.”

Representatives from Lotto.com and ASL attended the fourth annual Arkansas College Hunger Summit on October 30 to present a check for $5,000, highlighting the collective impact of Arkansas lottery players in supporting food security initiatives statewide.

LOTTO, an Arkansas-exclusive draw game launched in 2022, has created life-changing wins for players across the state. A Garland County resident recently claimed the game’s third-highest jackpot of $1.338 million, following previous jackpots of $5.123 million (Yell County) and $2.338 million (Sebastian County). LOTTO drawings occur every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 p.m., with tickets costing $2 per play.
