Upgrade To New Payment System
On Monday, Aug. 27 at 1 am ET, we'll upgrade to a new payment system for the iHOPE® Accounts used by our players to purchase lottery games online. We expect the upgrade process to take up to 8 hours, concluding at 9 am ET.
During the upgrade process, our website at galottery.com and our Georgia Lottery mobile app will either be down for maintenance or provide limited access to features that require players to sign in to their account. Players may also be unable to sign in to the 25th Anniversary promotion site and mobile app during the upgrade period. We apologize for the temporary inconvenience.
When the upgrade is complete, players whose accounts are enabled for online play will see multiple new benefits, including:
- PayPal® as a funding option for the iHOPE® Account
- Fast access to funds added from a bank account
- Online deposit limits replacing purchase limits
If you have questions, please contact our Player Information Hotline at 1-800-GA-LUCKY (1-800-425-8259), available 24 hours a day.
Thank you for your patience!
