We use age-verification and identity-verification technology and methods to locate records for and verify every person.  To begin the verification process, you must be 18 or older and have a valid US address.  If you meet these requirements but still are having trouble getting your identity verified, try the following recommendations:

  • Use your legal name.  Usually, it is the name on your birth certificate, unless it was changed as a result of a marriage or court order.  Using nicknames or shortened versions of legal names such as (Kathy instead of Kathleen) may not be recognized.

  • Include a middle initial only if you use one when signing legal documents. (If you have a middle name on your driver's license, try including it.)

  • Use a valid street address; if you use a PO Box, you can also give that a try.

  • Try "Street" or "St" instead of 'St.' or vice versa.  Try to use the address that appears on your driver's license.

  • Try variations with directional abbreviations.  Try including the directional abbreviation, not including them, then spelling them out. 


You may have trouble passing our verification process if you:

  • Have a recent name change.

  • Have recently moved

  • Do not have a public records under your name.  Examples of public records include: a loan, utility bill, driver's license, etc.

Unfortunately, as outlined in our Terms of Use, it is not possible to use your account if your age and identity cannot be verified. Based on other states' experience, we know some people may not be able to pass the verification process.  If you can't pass, you will still be able to purchase tickets at our retail locations, and we hope you will continue to play the Kentucky Lottery.

You can redeem physical and digital coupons at any Kentucky Lottery retailer.

Receiving Coupons Via Email

When the Kentucky Lottery emails you a coupon, you will see the option “Get Coupon”. Once you click the link, you will be redirected to your coupon. For precaution, you should print or screenshot the coupon so that you are able to easily access it.

Redeeming at Vending Machine

Your coupon can be redeemed at any Kentucky Lottery retailer. When using a vending machine, allow the machine 10-15 seconds after scanning to process the coupon. Once complete, you should see the credit balance of your coupon. If you get the message “coupon has already been redeemed”, double check to ensure the balance displayed does not reflect the credit already.

Note: If you receive a time out error or, “server cannot be reached at this time”, wait a few minutes to try again as this could be the result of heavy traffic on the servers.

Redeeming at Counter

If you are redeeming your coupon at the counter, be sure to remind the clerk to scan the barcode with the lottery terminal.

iFunds are a way you can add funds into your account through a purchase at a participating retail store. 

In order to fund your account through iFunds, log in to your account, then select "Player Card.” You will need to provide the bar code on that card to the participating retailer. You may request iFunds of an authorized amount (in whole dollars), subject to your account balance and deposits limits, from the retailer, and present your Player Card for retailer to scan.

The retailer scans your Player Card.  The terminal will display the maximum amount that you can add, based on account balance and deposit limits. Retailer then enters the amount (equal to or less than the maximum allowed), and takes your payment.  You will receive a receipt from the retailer and the amount will automatically be applied to your account.

Do you need additional help?        

iGifts are another way you can add funds into your account through a purchase at a retail store. You must be 18 years of age or older to purchase an iGift.

Unlike iFunds, which put the money directly into a specified account, iGifts works like a voucher.

In order to fund your account with an iGift, you may request from a retailer an authorized amount (in whole dollars). After the retailer is paid, the retailer prints a voucher. You may then log in to your account, and follow the steps for redeeming your voucher or iGift. 

Subject to account balance and deposit limits, the amount will be added to your account.  If the addition of the iGift would cause you to exceed your account balance and deposit limits, the iGift cannot be added to your account.

We feel our Internet platform provides a very responsible experience, thanks in large part to the limit setting features required for online accounts.

Kentucky specific draw games, like Pick 3, Pick 4, Kentucky Cash Ball, Keno, Cash Pop and Kentucky 5, are drawn using a digital drawing system utilizing a random number generator (RNG), instead of using balls and machines.  Using the RNG accomplishes the drawings quickly and more efficiently while maintaining the highest level of security.

The digital drawing system is not connected to any external system and contains no ability to connect to the internet. The device is locked into a full-sized chassis, and tampering is prevented with a bar-coded security bolt that has to be destroyed to be removed. Detailed written procedures require two people to be present at all times in order to access the system, containing a number of checks which must be verified by both individuals before a drawing can be conducted.

The digital drawing systems are housed in the dedicated draw studio with extensive electronic and video surveillance located at the Kentucky Lottery headquarters building in Louisville.

Kentucky has been using RNGs for more than ten years, first with 5 Card Cash, a game that has since ended, and moved to using RNGs for all Kentucky specific games in 2020.  At least 43 state lotteries in the U.S. use some form of a random number generator for their lottery drawings.

Powerball, Mega Millions and Lucky for Life are drawn live, and can be viewed from our website under https://www.kylottery.com/apps/draw_games/watchTheDrawings.html.

Pick 3 and Pick 4 offer set prize payouts. Therefore, for each drawing, the Lottery has established a $1.5 million liability limit for Pick 3 for any particular three-digit number, and a $1.5 million liability limit for Pick 4 for any particular four-digit number. Should any three digit combination (for example 777) be purchased often enough in a single Pick 3 drawing that would result in the liability limit being exceeded, the Lottery will "cut off" further sales of that specific number combination. The same is true of Pick 4.

It is the total number of tickets printed for a game divided by number of winning tickets printed.  For instance, if there are 400,000 winning tickets for a game and there are 1.4 million tickets printed, the odds are: 1.4 million/400,000 = 1: 3.5. So, on average (for this example), the odds of winning are 1 in every 3.5 tickets. That doesn't mean that every 3 or 4 tickets is a winner. It means that out of all the tickets printed, the average number of winners will come out to 1 in 3.5. In some cases, there will be a number of winning tickets in a row and, in other cases, there may be a number of tickets in succession without a winner.
