Delaware Online Lottery

It’s not yet possible to buy Delaware Lottery tickets online, and none of BettingUSA’s recommended ticket courier apps operate in Delaware. Until lawmakers change the law or regulators approve courier apps like Jackpocket and TheLotter to enter Delaware, the only way to buy DE Lottery tickets is in person at authorized retailers.

However, players can download the Delaware Lottery Players Club app for iOS or Android to scan their losing tickets to enter second-chance drawings. The Players Club issues 80 cash prizes ranging from $50 to $1,000 every month.
