Mobile lotteries practice responsible gambling and can restrict, limit, and control the amount each individual partakes in lottery systems. The state lottery industry is one of the most scrutinized industries in existence. Security has always been a high priority in the sale of lottery products and in the conduction of lottery drawings. High levels of security, in combination with public drawings, separate and elevate state lotteries from other forms of gaming.

State-of-the-art draw machines and televised official drawings are two means employed to ensure that every player has the same opportunity to win. For instant games, the lottery industry requires controlled distribution. With the implementation of Mobile Lotteries, winning lottery tickets can be delivered via SMS text message with bar codes that will allow winners to redeem prizes at any participating retail location. By using data encryption, playing the mobile lottery will be as safe, if not safer, than purchasing a physical ticket.
