If correct, the order can be received as a group of ticket packs by receiving the shipment invoice or by receiving any pack from the shipment. (If incorrect, please contact the Lottery at 1-800-433-8490 for instructions.)

Paying Scratch Tickets

To determine the winning status of a scratch ticket, you must validate it through the system.

Scratch tickets are validated by using the barcode reader on the front of the terminal, or by placing the ticket through the reader. A red light emits from the barcode reader. The barcode of the scratch ticket must be placed directly under this red light for the ticket to be read.

Paying a Scratch Ticket There are two types of scratch ticket validation barcodes. The first type is tickets with game number 499 or less. The validation barcode on these tickets is on the ticket back. The second type of ticket barcode is on tickets with game number 500 or more. The validation barcode on these tickets is on the ticket face, under the latex. Paying a ticket with game numbers 499 or less:

1. Place the validation barcode under the reader, with the barcode face up.

2. A pop-up appears asking for the 3-digit boxed code (the PIN) printed under the latex.

3. Enter the 3-digit code to validate the ticket. 4. Press [PRINT] to print the winner receipt.

Paying a ticket with game numbers 500 or less:

1. Place the validation barcode under the reader, with the barcode face up

2. The ticket is automatically validated. Press [PRINT] to print the winner receipt.

A 3-digit code is not necessary for validating tickets with game numbers 500 or more.
