It’s no secret that Spaniards love to play the lottery. Participation in EuroMillions and EuroJackpot draws has always been huge. More than that, it is said that over 90% of all Spanish adults take part in the Lotería de Navidad raffle draw held annually just before Christmas. But up until now, playing American lotteries, with their huge prize pools, has been impossible for residents of Spain.
In this week draws, the Mega Millions jackpot is set at $654 million USD (€565 million) while the other multi-state American lottery, the Powerball, offers a jackpot prize of $345 million USD (€298 million).
Lottery fever is on the rise and anyone could win these jackpots, even someone who is not from the United States. Foreigners can “purchase a Powerball ticket… play the game and… collect prizes,” according to the official Powerball website. And, more importantly, “you do not have to be a [US] citizen or a resident to play the game.”
Spaniards, too, can play Mega Millions and take a chance on winning the Powerball without stepping outside their homes. And even more important, playing American lotteries online from Spain is a legal way to win these prizes!
So how can Spaniards play the Powerball?
The easy solution is using the services of theLotter, the leading online ticket purchasing service. TheLotter uses local agents in the US to buy official lotto tickets on behalf of its customers from around the world. The website charges you a transaction fee and in return you get a scan of any ticket bought before the draw.
And no, commissions aren’t taken from winning tickets.
