The Pennsylvania Lottery is expanding debit and mobile pay options to make playing games more convenient for the growing number of players who carry little cash.
Over the past year, the Lottery has been adding debit PIN pads to many of its newer touch-screen, self-service vending units and at stores where games are sold from the counter.
More than 2,100 sales counters and 400 touch-screen vending units now have the equipment. The PIN pads also accept mobile payment options including Google Pay and Apple Pay, as well as cards with “tap to pay” capability.
While the Lottery’s point-of-sale PIN pads do not accept credit, nothing in law or policy prevents credit card sales of lottery games so retailers may accept credit cards at their discretion.
