Checking your Ticket

There are several ways you can check your lottery tickets.

On the Lotto Spot App

Use the app to check draw-based, scratch and sports tickets from the WCLC region to see if they are winners!

If you purchased a draw-based game ticket on the app:

Step 1: Log in to your account.

Step 2: Go to your account by tapping the icon at the top right of your screen and select "My Tickets".

Step 3: Select the ticket from the desired draw date and find out automatically if you've won.

If you purchased your draw-based, scratch or sports ticket at a retailer:

Step 1: Download and open the Lotto Spot app.

Step 2: Tap the "Scan" icon at the bottom of your screen.

Step 3: Scan the barcode at the bottom of your ticket or under the latex of scratch tickets.

If the barcode at the bottom of your ticket is misprinted, the ticket scanner will not recognize it.

The Lotto Spot app also allows you to:

  • See the latest draw results
  • View prize breakdowns
  • Browse your favourite lottery games
  • Find a lottery retailer near you!

Using the Ticket Checker at a Lottery Retailer

    Step 1: Wait for the message, “CHECK YOUR TICKETS HERE”.

    Step 2: Insert the bar code under the red light - the bar code is located at the bottom of the ticket or  under the latex in the play area for Zing (SCRATCH 'N WIN) tickets.

    Step 3: Move the bar code slowly through the light, until you hear a BEEP. Prize information will then appear on the screen.

    The ticket checker and mobile ticket purchases are available 23 hours a day, from 4 am to 3 am MT, 5 am to 4 am CT. WCLC’s lottery system is unavailable one hour each morning for regular day-end processing and maintenance. If you attempt to check your ticket when the system is unavailable, you will receive the message "This ticket cannot be checked at this time. Please try later."
    ADVANCE PLAY

    Myth: I can improve my chances of winning if I play “smart”.

    Fact: Your personal strategies, superstitions or “lucky” rituals have no impact on the final outcome of a game.  Due to the random nature of the draw, it’s impossible to predict what combination of numbers will be drawn or which SCRATCH ’N WIN ticket in the Retailer’s display will be a winner.
