ACCOUNT SAFETY SIGNALS

How We Protect Your New Account

Registration hands us your personal data, and we take that seriously. Every step from form submission to identity verification runs over encrypted connections. Here's what's in place from the moment you create your account.

SSL Encryption

Your registration form data travels over SSL-encrypted connections. No personal detail — name, date of birth, address — moves without that protection in place from the first field.

Identity Verification

We verify your identity to confirm eligibility under state law. This step protects your account from unauthorized use and keeps the platform compliant with applicable regulations.

Data Protection

Your account information is stored according to US data-handling standards. We do not sell your registration data to third parties, and you control what marketing contact you receive.

Account Access Controls

Set a strong password at registration and enable any secondary verification option we offer. If you ever suspect unauthorized access, our support team can lock the account immediately.

What to Expect When You Register

The registration form asks for your name, date of birth, email address, and a password you choose. After you submit, we run a standard identity verification step — this is how we confirm you're eligible under your state's rules. You may be asked to upload a photo ID if automatic verification needs a second look.

Once verified, your account wallet is active and you can connect PayPal, Venmo, or a Play+ prepaid card directly from the payment screen. Support is reachable via live chat if anything stalls during setup. Keep your email accessible — we send a confirmation link you'll need to activate the account before your first deposit clears.

  • Identity Verification We confirm your eligibility automatically at sign-up. A photo ID upload may be requested if the instant check needs extra confirmation — the process is straightforward.
  • Account Wallet Once verified, your wallet is live. Link PayPal, Venmo, or Play+ from the payment screen and your funding method is stored for future sessions.
  • Email Confirmation A confirmation link arrives right after you submit the form. Click it to activate your account — no activation, no deposit, so check your inbox promptly.
  • Live Chat Support If the form stalls or verification hits a snag, our live chat team can walk you through it step by step so you're not stuck waiting on an email.

Fund Your New Account Your Way

After registration, your first deposit uses a payment method you already know. PayPal, Venmo, and Play+ prepaid are the three options we've built around — no need to enter a new card or set up an unfamiliar wallet. Deposits via PayPal and Venmo pull straight from your existing app balance or linked bank. Play+ works as a dedicated prepaid card tied to your michganlottery wallet. Availability depends on your state and eligible account type.

PayPal

Connect your PayPal account from the payment screen after registration. Deposits draw from your PayPal balance or linked checking account and reflect in your wallet quickly.

Venmo

Venmo deposits work through your existing Venmo balance. It's the same app you already use — no extra login or separate credentials required after linking it once.

Play+

Play+ is a prepaid card account tied directly to your michganlottery wallet. Load it after registration and use it for both deposits and withdrawals within your account.

Registration Questions, Answered

These are the questions we hear most from people working through the sign-up flow for the first time. If yours isn't here, live chat can help.

You'll need your full legal name, date of birth, a valid email address, and a password. After submission, identity verification may ask for a government-issued photo ID.

We run an automatic check when you submit the form. If it can't confirm your details instantly, you'll be prompted to upload a photo ID — a driver's license or state ID works.

Account access and game availability depend on your state's laws. Not all states permit online lottery or gaming accounts, so eligibility is determined at sign-up based on your location.

PayPal, Venmo, and Play+ prepaid are available to link from your wallet screen once your account is active. Availability may vary based on account type and state eligibility.

Check your spam folder first. If it's not there, open live chat with the email address you used — we can resend the link or confirm the address was entered correctly.

Yes. The registration form is built for mobile browsers, so you can complete the full sign-up on your phone without downloading an app first. Everything — form, ID upload, payment linking — works on-screen.
