Rhode Island Online Lottery

The Rhode Island Lottery is notable for being one of a handful of state lotteries offering online play, although its selection is limited to digital scratch tickets and Keno.

Currently, there’s no way to buy Powerball online in Rhode Island. The same goes for other draw games, daily drawings, and pull tabs.

The current lineup of Rhode Island Lottery games online includes roughly 75 eInstant games and Keno.

Online Scratch Ticket Features

• $0.50 to $20 per play
• Top prizes up to $250,000
• New games released regularly
• Fixed number of prizes at each prize level (just like physical scratch cards)
• Players can select the “Odds and Prizes” tab on any eInstant’s info page to see the number of remaining prizes

Online Keno Features

• $1 to $10 per play
• Results derived from the same drawings as Keno offered at retailers
• New drawing every four minutes
• Win up to $100,000 in standard Keno
• Win up to $500,000 in Keno Overtime
• Win up to $1,000,000 in Keno Plus

Players 18 or older and located in Rhode Island can access the iLottery games by signing up for VIP Club memberships and activating the VIP+ option when registering.

Signing up for a VIP+ membership is free, but players must undergo additional identity verification as required by state and federal law. After signing up, players can fund their accounts with ACH transfers or debit cards.

Rhode Island iLottery Bonus

New Rhode Island Lottery players can claim a 50% bonus worth up to $50 when they sign up and deposit $10 or more.

For example, a new user who deposits $100 will get $50 in iLottery Bonus Money. Players cannot withdraw iLottery Bonus Money directly, but they may use it to play eInstant and online keno to win real cash.
