MyLotto Rewards® - Enter Tickets


Ticket Entry Help

Manual Entry into MyLotto Rewards has gone away.

To ensure security and integrity of the MyLotto Rewards program, as of August 8, 2023, functionality to enter non-winning ticket numbers manually is longer be supported. You can use the ticket scanner functionality within the official Ohio Lottery mobile app to scan tickets quickly and easily for entry. Please note, we are still allowing manual entry for Cash Explosion entry tickets.

You can quickly and easily scan any Ohio Lottery ticket using the Ohio Lottery Mobile App. Use our ticket scanner to:

  • Check to see if your ticket is a winner
  • Cash out your winning ticket using the Ohio Lottery Mobile Cashing
  • Enter non-winning tickets into MyLotto Rewards®

Finding the Ticket Code

Scratch-Off Ticket bar codes are always found on the front of the ticket at the bottom of the scratched-off area. You cannot see the code until after you scratch the ticket.

Printed ticket bar codes are at the bottom of the receipt, just after the purchase date and ticket's 35-digit serial number.
