Pennsylvania Lottery Announces Cash4Life® and Treasure Hunt Tickets Now Available for Purchase Online

8/4/2020
Middletown, PA – Pennsylvania Lottery officials today announced that players will now be able to purchase Cash4Life® and Treasure Hunt tickets online through the Lottery’s website at pailottery.com.
 
“We are excited to announce that these two, long-time player favorites have now been added to our online lineup of games,” said Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director Drew Svitko. “Back in January, we added Powerball and Mega Millions to our online platform. This is another part of our modernization effort to help us responsibly generate funds that benefit older Pennsylvanians, while meeting our players where they already are, which is online.”
 
Players who purchase Cash4Life® and Treasure Hunt tickets online can enjoy many of the same features available to players who purchase from a Lottery retailer. They can choose their own numbers or select the “quick pick” option to receive randomly selected numbers. Players also have the option to purchase multiple tickets and advanced draws.
 
To play PA Lottery games or purchase tickets online at pailottery.com, players must be 18 or older, sign up for an account and deposit funds in order to make a purchase. New account holders are required to securely submit proof of identity and age. After purchasing tickets, players will be able to view their transaction history, which will include past and current drawings and plays.
 
“By law, online lottery players must be physically located in the state of Pennsylvania to play for money and win prizes,” Svitko noted. “As with all Lottery games, we urge players to play responsibly and always within their means.”
 
To promote responsible play, the PA Lottery online platform features a number of player-controlled settings, including time limits, deposit limits and spend limits. Players can configure one or more of these limits to suit their personal play style and budget. The site also allows players to take a “cool-off” period of up to 30 days, or self-exclude entirely for one year or five years.
