- State lotteries have been one of the few winners in the US gaming market since the Supreme Court overturned PASPA.
- The Associated Press (AP) has partnered with online lottery courier Jackpot.com.
- Jackpot.com is now the ‘official lottery courier service’ of the Associated Press.
Jackpot.com, a leading online lottery courier service, has announced a strategic partnership with The Associated Press (AP) to become the official lottery courier and provider of nationwide lottery results. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for Jackpot.com, enhancing its presence in the lottery industry and expanding its service offerings.
Currently operational in six states, with New Jersey being the most recent addition, Jackpot.com enables consumers to purchase official state lottery tickets through their phone, tablet, or computer. As part of this partnership, Jackpot.com will offer various state lottery results on APNews.com and to AP customers via a “lottery results feed.” This will not only provide the latest lottery drawing results but also allow AP customers to offer ticket purchasing services through their own websites where such services are available.
“Working with The Associated Press as their official lottery courier and provider of state lottery results marks a pivotal moment for us at Jackpot.com,” said Akshay Khanna, CEO and co-founder of Jackpot.com. “This collaboration not only helps provide readers with the latest lottery drawing results but also enables them to seamlessly and responsibly purchase lottery tickets online. Through AP’s extensive reach, we’re not just selling tickets; we’re transforming the landscape of lottery gaming.”
“We look forward to working with Jackpot.com to provide the latest lottery results to our customers as well as the audience on APNews.com,” said Barry Bedlan, AP’s global products director for text, data, and new markets.
The leadership team at Jackpot.com boasts a proven track record in the technology, gaming, and licensing industries. The team is led by Akshay K. Khanna, an accomplished sports and licensing executive who formerly ran StubHub’s North America business and Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment’s strategy group; co-founder Roi More, the co-founder of Gett; and co-founder Yariv Ron, a veteran in the real money gaming industry.
