If you’re a Georgia Lottery player, and you like to play online, add money to your iHOPE wallet during the promotional period and you will get a 20% bonus match, up to $100.

The promotional period lasts from 12:01 am through 11:59 pm ET on November 20, 2023. This promotion does not apply to your first deposit into your iHOPE account after registering. It may also not be combined with other promotional offers. Your bonus funds will be added to your iHOPE account within seven business days of the end of the promotion. You can only use your deposit and bonus funds to purchase lottery games, they may not be withdrawn.

What is iHOPE Wallet?

If you’re a Georgia Lottery player, and you haven’t got your iHOPE Wallet account yet, it’s time to come on board. Funded by the Georgia Lottery, HOPE (Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally), is an educational scholarship program. It has already provided more than $8 billion to over 1.9 million Georgia students.

Although many of Georgia’s Lottery tickets are purchased at retail outlets throughout the Peach State, since 2012, the Georgia Lottery has been offering some lottery games for purchase online. Their interactive online lottery sales program is called iHOPE. Just like those tickets purchased in retail outlets, a percentage of the money made from online sales is used to fund college (HOPE) scholarships and grants and pre-K for eligible Georgia students.

Lottery games you can purchase through iHOPE

You can purchase the following games online through your iHOPE account:

  • Mega Millions
  • Powerball
  • Fantasy 5
  • KENO
  • Quick Win
  • Cash 3
  • Cash 4
  • Cash Pop
  • Cash4Life

You can also play Diggi Games, a range of online instant-win scratch-off games. There are more than 50 to choose from. You can purchase your lottery games online on the Georgia Lottery site. For added convenience, you could download the Georgia Lottery app for Android and iOS and play on your smartphone anytime, anywhere.

The advantages of an iHOPE Wallet account

The advantages of signing up for a Georgia Lottery iHOPE wallet account are numerous, including:

  • Super convenient: You no longer have to worry about forgetting to pick up a Mega Millions ticket on the way home because you can purchase one on your home computer or smartphone. For added convenience, you can purchase a multi-draw ticket package so your participation in multiple draws is guaranteed.
  • Secure payments: With the iHOPE purchasing system, you can play Georgia Lottery games online in a secure environment. All your payments are encrypted and protected with high-security features.
  • No more waiting in line: You can skip the queue when you use iHOPE and get straight to playing your lottery game of choice as often as you like.
  • Never lose a ticket: You’ll never have to worry about losing a winning ticket because all your tickets are stored in your online app. No risk is involved.
  • Rapid notifications: When you’ve matched your numbers and won a prize, you will receive a notification from the Georgia Lottery via email or SMS. You don’t need to waste time finding your ticket and checking the results.
