For almost four decades, the West Virginia Lottery has been able to provide entertainment around the state, while also providing vital support for seniors and veterans, education, and tourism. These proceeds help fund school improvements and construction, provides critical financing for the PROMISE Scholarship, assists in senior services, and aide in the state’s growing tourism industry. 

The first scratch-off ticket was sold on January 9, 1986, and since then, the Lottery has generated more than $12.4 billion for the state. These funds are vital to tomorrow’s leaders, today’s seniors and veterans, and continue to further the beauty of the Mountain State. The Lottery offers nearly 40 new instant games yearly, while also supporting a wide variety of draw games on its menu, such as Powerball, Mega Millions, and in-state games such as Daily 3, Daily 4, and Ca$h POP. The Lottery also offers video lottery, limited video lottery, sports betting and igaming, and table games through regulations at our five casinos across the state. On the horizon for the agency is the launch of iLottery, a completely digital way to purchase and play games right from one’s fingertips. 

You can follow the Lottery happenings through our social media accounts on X, Facebook, and Instagram, where the team hosts giveaway contests, seeks player feedback, and a customer service line for problems that may arise. The Lottery actively works with our regulatory bodies to ensure integrity, fairness, and security in all our gaming facets, as well as promoting responsible gaming and a safe environment for all players. 

The Lottery will always remind players to please play responsibly and if you or someone you know has a gambling problem, call 1-800-GAMBLER (1-800-426-2537) or visit www.1800gambler.net
