Players may scan the barcode on the bottom of a ticket or may manually enter the 19-digit ticket number on Eligible tickets on the ticket entry page to collect entries as described in subsection (3), below.

      3. Deleted Accounts. If a player deletes his/her account, whether through the App or on the Florida Lottery’s website, all account data, including ticket entries, associated with the email address used to register his/her account will also be deleted. Any entries earned will not be entered into a drawing. A player’s account cannot be reactivated using the email associated with the deactivated account. Should a player establish a new account utilizing a different email address, account data, including ticket entries, cannot be transferred to the newly established account. Tickets entered under the prior account cannot be re-entered utilizing the newly created account.

      4. Regardless of whether a player chooses to participate in the Bonus Play by using the web browser or the App, the following provisions shall apply:

      a. a player will be prompted to either register or login;

      b. the player must use the same account login information to enter tickets;

      c. the player will only be required to register one time; and

      d. the player's entry history will be cumulative among the entry platforms.

A person who has made a legal name change must provide a copy of a marriage certificate/judgment/court order, as applicable, as proof of a differing name. Fictitious names and business names will not be accepted and shall subject the player and any associated entries to disqualification.

   4. (d) Lottery tickets should not be mailed to the Lottery for entry into a drawing. Tickets received in the mail by the Lottery for entry into the Bonus Play will not be entered into a drawing and will not be returned.

3. (3) Earning Entries.

   1. (a) To earn entries into a drawing, a player may enter ticket numbers by scanning the barcode on the bottom of an Eligible ticket using his or her mobile device or by manually entering the 19-digit number on Eligible tickets on the website or the Mobile App. A player may earn multiple entries during an entry period. A player may enter a maximum of 200 tickets per day. Each ticket number can only be entered one time and cannot be entered again for another drawing. Players may enter Eligible ticket/s at any time during the Bonus Play Period, except that entry capabilities on the website and App will be unavailable from 12 a.m. through 6 a.m. ET due to routine maintenance and may be unavailable at other times if there are technical difficulties. Entries must be made by midnight (ET) on the last day of a Drawing Entry Period to be entered into that drawing. See subsection (5) for Drawing Entry Periods.

   2. (b) Number of Entries Earned.

      1. A player will receive one (1) entry into a Drawing for every $15 purchased of Eligible tickets.

      2. For any amount over $15 on the purchase that achieves the $15 sum, that amount will be counted towards the next $15 purchase. For example, a player reaches $17 with a purchase to earn one entry; the additional $2 will go towards the next $15 total purchase during the same Drawing Entry Period.

      3. The $15 sum does not include PICK purchases of $0.50 and otherwise not in even dollar purchase amounts. For example, a player purchases a $2.50 PICK ticket; the amount of $0.50 will not be included in the tabulation to achieve $15, only $2 will be applied.

      4. The sum of $15 does not need to be made in a single purchase nor need to be for the same game but must be made during the same Drawing Entry Period to earn an entry into that Drawing.

      5. No sums will be carried over into a subsequent Drawing Entry Period.

4. (4) Coupons. Upon entry of an Eligible ticket, a player may be awarded a Coupon for an amount of cash that would permit a player to purchase a day’s worth of tickets as set forth in the table in paragraph (4)(b), below.
