iLottery is a new way to play Lottery games, the Lottery says.
Players can register for a free VIP+ Purchase Power account at RILOT.com or on the Lottery's new mobile app to play Keno and eInstant games, the Lottery says.
'We're pleased to offer the ability for players to buy and play Keno and eInstants from their computers or mobile devices,' Gerald Aubin, director of the Rhode Island Lottery, said in a press release. 'This will be a great convenience for players and will generate additional revenue for our state.'
Rhode Island is facing an estimated $800 million budget shortfall in the next fiscal year, which starts July 1, due in large part to a downturn in revenues from the coronavirus pandemic, Lottery revenues are projected to be down $130 million.
The Keno game is the same game available that's available at retail locations, the Lottery says. Players can place their wagers, watch the draws live, and can save their favorite wagers for future play, the Lottery says.
eInstant players can also play games such as Multiply the Cash, Texas Hold 'Em, Emoti Collect, and Pink Diamond Crossword. Play styles and prize payouts remain similar to the Instant Games sold at Retail locations, the Lottery says. The eInstant games can be played for $1, $2, $3, $5, $10, or $20.
Once players establish their VIP+ Purchase Power accounts, they can link to their bank account to deposit funds to play. There will be maximum deposit limits.
Prizes below $600 will be automatically deposited into the player's account. Prizes of $600 and above must be claimed at Lottery Headquarters.
