JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lotto.com, the nation's first online platform to digitally deliver official state lottery draw games and scratch tickets, is celebrating the largest win in the platform's history. Arkansas resident Kevin S. won $5.123 Million. In addition to being the largest jackpot on Lotto.com, it was also the largest jackpot in the history of the Arkansas Lotto game. Kevin realized that his life had changed when the platform notified him about his winnings.
Kevin began using Lotto.com for his lottery tickets three weeks ago. After using the platform's Quick Pick feature to select his numbers, he hit it big in the February 1, 2025 Arkansas Lotto drawing. Kevin hadn't checked the results of the drawing and only learned of the win when Lotto.com reached out to him. Kevin quickly visited his local Player's Cafe to claim his ticket, saying simply, "It's surreal right now."
"We couldn't be more thrilled to celebrate this record-breaking win! Seeing a player win over $5 Million on our platform is an incredible milestone for Lotto.com," said Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com Inc. "This big winner hails from a rural part of Arkansas, and we are proud to have been able to provide him with convenient access to this jackpot!”
As with all tickets ordered on the Lotto.com platform, Arkansas Lotto tickets contribute incremental funds to meaningful Arkansas state-run programs across education, parks, emergency responders, veterans' health, and other important services.
