Lottery App Hits $1M in Prize Payouts, Launches New Daily Games
Jackpocket and NJ Lottery Respond to Customer Demand Amidst Unprecedented Changes
Jackpocket, New Jersey’s first and only registered lottery courier service, today announced New Jersey players have won more than $1 million in lottery prizes using its mobile app for playing the lottery. The million-dollar milestone comes six months after Jackpocket debuted the app in New Jersey in December 2019.
Now Jackpocket is offering customers even more chances to win with the launch of New Jersey Lottery daily games in the app. New Jerseyans can now place ticket orders for seven well-known draw games, including Mega Millions, Powerball, CASH4LIFE, Pick-6, Pick-3, Pick-4, and Jersey Cash 5 from the convenience of their phones.
“Daily games have been a top request from our New Jersey users from the start,” Jackpocket CEO Peter Sullivan said. “Jackpocket now gives players a safe, alternative way to play both big jackpot games like Powerball and daily games like Jersey Cash 5 from home.”
New Jersey is the first state lottery to formally authorize lottery courier services, allowing the placement of orders through a mobile app. After a player selects their game and numbers, Jackpocket then purchases the ticket on the player’s behalf from a licensed New Jersey lottery retailer and uploads an image of the ticket into the app. Tickets cannot be lost, and winnings under $600 are credited automatically to the player’s account. In addition to placing ticket orders, Jackpocket players can check lottery results, join lottery pools with friends and family, and access in-app responsible gaming tools.
The app’s simple and secure ordering process broadens access to the lottery and increases participation for both longtime players and new consumers who otherwise would not be active lottery players. Fifty-three percent of Jackpocket users in New Jersey are under 45 years old.
“Before Jackpocket, if there was a huge lottery jackpot, then maybe I’d try to find time to go and buy a ticket, but it was never convenient,” said a Bergen County lottery player, who recently won a $20,000 Mega Millions prize using the app. “Now I can take out my phone and place the order, see my past tickets and my lifetime winnings—all your play is in one place.”
Jackpocket app users have won more than $11 million in lottery prizes since the company began rolling out the app state by state in 2015.
The app is available for download on iOS or Android. For more information, visit jackpocket.com.

Internet Vikings Expands Canadian Footprint into Alberta
Internet Vikings, a licensed hosting provider for the North American iGaming and online sports betting industry, has announced that its hosting solutions are ready to launch in Alberta, Canada. Internet Vikings’ infrastructure and operational processes already align with the province’s expected requirements, meaning the company can help operators enter the Alberta market faster and with greater confidence.
The expansion comes following the release of updated hosting, infrastructure, and security requirements by the AGLC. As Alberta prepares to open its market, operators and suppliers are facing strict requirements around cybersecurity and disaster recovery.
Internet Vikings’ experience supporting regulated operators across North America positions the company to help businesses comply with these operational and regulatory requirements efficiently from day one.
Requirements include adherence to internationally recognized security standards such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001. In addition, operators are expected to maintain disaster recovery environments, encrypted immutable backups, and perform routine recovery testing to ensure business continuity.
“We are ready to provide the infrastructure and local expertise operators need to launch and scale successfully. We are already working with operators preparing for launch and understand the urgency involved in getting compliant infrastructure deployed quickly,” said Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings.
Internet Vikings first established operations in Ontario in 2022 and is now expanding its Canadian footprint into Alberta with hosting solutions, including VMware cloud hosting, bare metal servers, bare metal GPU servers, disaster recovery, and backup solutions.
