About the Minnesota Lottery
The Minnesota Lottery has been around since 1989, when state voters first approved it.
The first tickets went on sale in 1990 and by the end of that week, the Minnesota Lottery had sold $15 million worth of tickets. Powerball tickets went on sale that same year, while Mega Millions followed in January 2010.
The revenue generated from the Minnesota Lottery is allocated to the State General Fund, with more than $3 billion raised through the sale of lottery tickets returned to the state as some form of aid.
When you play the various lottery games in Minnesota, you're directly helping health services, local governments, public safety, and educational initiatives. Anything that may be leftover is given to the Natural Resources Fund, the Game and Fish Fund, and the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund. Players must be 18 years old or older to play Minnesota Lottery games and collect winnings.

1. Can I purchase tickets for the Minnesota Lottery online, over the phone, or by mail?
No. You must buy your lottery tickets from a licensed lottery retailer in the state. It's illegal to purchase lottery tickets by phone or mail.
2. How long do I have to claim my winnings?
You have 12 months from the date of the draw. If that deadline falls on a holiday or weekend, you have until the end of the next business day to redeem your winning ticket.
3. What happens if my winning ticket is lost, damaged, or even stolen?
Always keep your lottery tickets safe and sign the back of your tickets. If you don't, anyone who has your ticket can claim the winnings. The Minnesota Lottery is not responsible for damaged, lost, or stolen lottery tickets.
4. Can I remain anonymous if I win a lottery jackpot?
No, in Minnesota your name, the prize amount, and your city of residence is public information.
We do recommend that you consult with a lawyer before claiming any big prizes, however, as it may be possible to claim your prize through a trust in order to retain your anonymity.

The Minnesota Lottery jackpot and daily games include Daily 3, Gopher 5, Lotto America, Powerball, Northstar Cash, Lucky for Life, and Mega Millions.
6. Who can purchase Minnesota Lottery tickets?
Players in Minnesota need to be at least 18 years old to play any of the lottery games.
7. Are lottery winnings taxed in the state of Minnesota?
Yes, lottery winnings in Minnesota are treated as wages and are, therefore, subject to both federal and state taxes. For prizes over $5,000, the Minnesota Lottery will withhold certain taxes. Visit our Tax Information section for all the details.
8. What do I do if I've won a lottery prize?
You can claim your winnings at an authorized Minnesota Lottery retailer, a claims center, or by mailing in your winning ticket with a claim form. Jackpot winners will have to visit the lottery head office to claim their winnings.
Before claiming any big lottery prize, we strongly recommend that you consult with a lawyer or financial advisor as they can help you during the claim process.
9. Can I purchase lottery tickets for more than one draw at a time?
Yes, in fact, you can purchase tickets for multiple draws in advance.
10. Where do the proceeds from the sale of Minnesota Lottery tickets go?
The Minnesota State Lottery divides proceeds from ticket sales among several causes and programs, including the State General Fund which helps in the operation of all state services and the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund which finances environment and natural resources projects across the entire state. A smaller percentage is also directed to the Game and Fish Fund for fish and game, parks, trails, and zoos in Minnesota.
