It's not the first digital courier program available in the Garden State, but Thursday's launch of Lotto.com in New Jersey creates a new way for lottery players to press their luck.
The scratch-built platform allows people to take a chance on a drawing simply by going to a website, rather than downloading an app such as Jackpocket.
Lotto.com CEO Thomas Metzger hopes it will enhance the "e-commerce experience" of playing the lottery by making the process more inclusive for younger, more affluent and more tech-savvy users.
