Lottery sites by country: questions
Why does the list of sites change by country?
Lottery sites set which countries they accept in their terms. We take country access from those terms and leave a site out of a country guide when its terms exclude that country. Angola has its own Angola lottery guide.
Is it legal to buy lottery tickets online from my country?
It depends on the country, and we only state a rule where we have verified it. Each country guide shows the law we hold with its source. Where we have not verified a rule yet, the guide says so; check the law where you live before you buy. Canada has its own Canada lottery guide.
My country has no guide. Can I still play?
Possibly. Read the country list in a site's terms before you register, and check the law where you live. Our how we rank page explains how we score the sites in the overall ranking. The United Kingdom lottery guide is another we cover.
Does the site I buy from change my odds?
No. The odds are set by the draw, not by the site. Compare the price per line and the fees instead, and decide a monthly amount you can lose before you buy. Help is on responsible gambling.
Which country guide applies to players in Zimbabwe?
This site serves players in Zimbabwe. The Zimbabwe guide lists the lottery sites whose terms accept players there. Open the Zimbabwe lottery guide to see the sites and the law we hold.
Do I pay tax on lottery winnings?
Tax on winnings depends on the country. A country guide states a tax rule only where we have verified it. Our guide to tax on lottery winnings explains what to check before you claim a prize.
Set the spend before you pick the numbers.
Most lottery lines win nothing. Decide a monthly amount you can lose, and use the deposit limits on the site you play at.
