Today, Jackpot .com, the website and app that allows lottery players to safely and securely order official state lottery tickets and scratchers from their mobile phones, desktops and tablets, announced the launch of its services in Arizona. With this latest offering, Arizonians can now purchase and play their favorite lottery games from anywhere.

Lottery players in Arizona can now instantly buy tickets for their favorite nationwide games such as Mega Millions and Powerball, as well as the popular local game, The Pick draw.   The innovative platform purchases tickets on behalf of its customers from an official state lottery retailer, displaying a scan of their ticket and transferring winnings under $600 in real-time to their account. For prizes greater than $600, Jackpot.com securely delivers the ticket to the winning player to collect their winnings from the Arizona Lottery.

Arizona residents will also have access to Scratchers – the digital scratch ticket offering focused on expediting the convenience and the processing times of scratcher games. Jackpot.com has launched with four of the most popular scratchers in Arizona, including Lady Luck, $230 Million Cash Explosion, Instant Millions, 500x Fortune and more. Customers simply have to “scratch” their device screen with their finger or mouse to reveal their scanned ticket and potential winnings. Jackpot.com delivers the industry’s fastest online lottery scratch card experience and has also completed a comprehensive business process review by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), which ensures its method for ordering and processing lottery scratch tickets is accurate and functions as expected for both Jackpot.com and the player.

Every year, the Arizona Lottery gives back hundreds of millions of dollars from ticket sales to a variety of programs and organizations striving to make an impact in higher education, health and human services, environmental conservation, and economic and business development. This fiscal year, the Arizona Lottery achieved $1.52 billion in sales, a historic milestone since the state lottery’s inception in 1981, and contributed $314.89 million to its primary beneficiaries with approximately $217,000 also going to the State of Arizona’s General Fund.

“We could not be more excited to launch in Arizona and offer the people of The Grand Canyon State a more convenient way to play the lottery,” said CEO and co-founder, Akshay Khanna. “With Jackpot, Arizonians will be able to purchase lottery tickets and scratchers from wherever they want on their mobile devices. By improving access, we’re happy to help Arizonians contribute to the great causes that are supported by the Arizona Lottery.” 

Arizona represents Jackpot.com’s eighth active market. The platform is also live in Colorado, Massachusetts, Arkansas, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Texas. Additionally, the company is the official lottery courier service for 7-Eleven, Inc. in Massachusetts and Ohio, with more states being added soon.

Jackpot.com remains committed to upholding responsible gaming protocols through the integration of modern conveniences and safety guardrails, one of the standout features of digital lottery platforms. The company has significantly invested in responsible gaming protections by allowing customers to set spend limits, default limits on daily deposits, providing access to local and national responsible gambling resources, self-exclusion, self-suspension and automated notifications that offer help should problematic behavior arise. Furthermore, Jackpot.com is the only lottery courier service to launch with iCap certification from the National Council on Problem Gambling.

The supplier licence allows BETER to deliver its fast-betting content, including live streams and live data, to licensed operators in the state for the first time, including its exclusive ESportsBattle tournaments and Setka Cup table tennis series.

BETER is also certified in North Carolina, New Jersey, Florida, Indiana, Iowa and Colorado.

Arizona Department of Gaming Marks Fifth Super Bowl of Legal Sports Betting — November Wagers Top $965M

Published

arizona-department-of-gaming-marks-fifth-super-bowl-of-legal-sports-betting-—-november-wagers-top-$965m

The Arizona Department of Gaming today highlighted a major milestone: the upcoming Super Bowl will be the fifth played under Arizona’s legal, state-regulated sports wagering framework. Since regulated event wagering launched in 2021, Arizona’s oversight—guided by state law and Tribal-State Compacts—has aimed to protect consumers, preserve integrity, and generate public revenue.

Key November 2025 figures: strong wagering growth

In its latest monthly report, the Department said Arizona bettors wagered approximately $965 million on sports and events in November 2025 — about a 7.5% increase versus November 2024. The state collected roughly $5.5 million in privilege fees for the month.* Fiscal year-to-date privilege fees total $26.3 million (about $25.7M from event wagering and $637,399 from fantasy sports).

Arizona also recorded its highest monthly event wagering in October 2025 with $967,141,269, and the second-highest in November 2025 with $965,233,844.*

Regulated framework and consumer protections

Arizona’s regulated model requires licensed operators to follow statutory rules, Tribal-State Compacts, and ongoing regulatory oversight. The Department conducts audits, compliance reviews, and integrity controls designed to prevent fraud and illegal activity. Licensed event wagering operators remit privilege fees, calculated as a percentage of gaming revenue — with 90% of those fees directed to Arizona’s General Fund to support state programs and priorities.

There are currently fourteen licensed event wagering operators approved to offer wagering in Arizona, each subject to ongoing Department review and potential audit adjustments.

Responsible play and support resources

The Department emphasizes the importance of using state-licensed event wagering and fantasy sports apps or retail locations. For guidance and safety tips, players are encouraged to visit Check Your Bet at gaming.az.gov/checkyourbet.

For individuals and families affected by problem gambling, the Department’s Division of Problem Gambling offers confidential, subsidized treatment and resources statewide at problemgambling.az.com.
