Best Online Lottery Games - Play Bingo & Scratch Cards on Stake
When it comes to the world of gambling, there are few games that are as long-lived or successful as lotteries. Ever since they were first developed and held in Ancient Rome, they have remained at the forefront of gambling, particularly in Europe. Because of that storied history, lottery-themed games continue to be successful and available and online lottery games exist in different forms here at Stake.com.
So, despite lottery tickets being seen by many as purely an offline venture, the swift shift to a digital format has meant there are many available to modern players. Here we’ll break down all the different lottery-based online games you can play at Stake Casino.
What are Online Lottery Games?
Most countries and states will have a lottery of their own. They are popular because of their simplicity and the potential for big lottery jackpots. Nowadays, players can choose their numbers and buy their tickets online. However, there is also a new type of game of chance that players can enjoy.
These games, unlike your standard state or national lottery, are instant win games. So, instead of waiting, clutching a ticket, while a machine rumbles the balls and spits out the winning numbers, players will get an instant result. In that way, these games are much more like the scratch cards that many lotteries also employ, and lots will come in that format.
How to Play Lottery Games on Stake Casino
Before getting started with your chosen lottery game, you will need to create your account at Stake Casino. From there, you can add funds to your account, using either local currency like dollars or crypto coins like Bitcoin, Litecoin, Tether and Ethereum.
Then you just need to choose your favourite game from the list of lottery online games at Stake. It’s important to know the lottery game rules and our extensive list of helpful how-to guides, which cover everything from blackjack to slots, can help you there.
Lottery Game Mechanics and Features
Much like a normal game of lottery and scratchcards, the online versions are built around the same standard mechanics. For example, Keno, a game that is similar in many ways to both lotteries and bingo, will see you picking a selection of numbers before the game makes a draw of its own numbers using a random number generator (RNG) for fairness. Unlike in typical lottery games, these won’t usually employ progressive jackpots where the prize pot is increased every time it isn’t claimed.
In instant-win scratch cards, you will play the game in much the same way you would a physical scratch card. You will be presented with a … well, card … and you will virtually scratch off the foil to reveal symbols or numbers. If you match a set number of these, you can bag a win. Some games may use other displays that you need to scratch off, like a man’s beard in Shave the Beard. We've got a full guide on scratch cards if you're new to chance-based games.

Popular Live Casino Lottery Games
The online casino world was shaken in recent years by the introduction of the live casino. Using live-streaming video technology, players could get involved with games hosted and dealt by real-life hosts and dealers. Online lottery is no different and here are some of the best titles:
Mega Ball: From live casino experts Evolution, we have Mega Ball. It combines the thrill of lottery draws and bingo with its studio-based game show format. You buy your cards and wait for the host to draw the numbers that will hopefully fill them. 6 completed rows will bag you 10,000x your stake.
MONOPOLY Big Baller: Who hasn’t enjoyed a stress-filled game of MONOPOLY with family at Christmas? This MONOPOLY Big Baller studio game removes the stress and sees players looking to fill their cards with the numbers drawn by Mr. MONOPOLY in a lottery format. It also includes bonus games that offer up to huge max wins.
Vegas Ball Bonanza: Pragmatic Play brings us Vegas Ball Bonanza. Another smashup of lottery and bingo into a gameshow, it offers up to 20,000x max wins and these can be triggered by the bonus balls like all the best state and national lotteries like Lotto MAX do.
Lightning Ball Live: Another of Evolution’s Lightning group of games, Lightning Ball Live sees players looking to tick numbers off their cards as they’re drawn. Upping the ante, though, is the Lightning multipliers that can help build up a 50,000x max win.
