In West Virginia, playing the Lottery is no longer limited to retail counters or vending machines. When you play through iPLAY, the official online platform of the West Virginia Lottery, you can purchase tickets, check results, and manage your entries all from your phone, tablet, or computer. The best part – it’s available to you anywhere in the state with a reliable internet connection.
What is iPLAY?
iPLAY is the West Virginia Lottery’s official digital platform, built to give you access to a range of draw-based games and online iNSTANTS.
Unlike third-party platforms, iPLAY is operated directly by the West Virginia Lottery. That means your play is not only legal and secure, but also supports state-funded programs and services. It’s a trustworthy alternative to in-store Lottery purchases, offering the same game access with additional features like personalized account dashboards and automated notifications.
How to get started
To play through iPLAY, simply register for an account on the official West Virginia Lottery website. You’ll be asked to verify your identity and confirm your eligibility. Once registered, you can fund your account using one of several available deposit methods, including debit, bank transfers, or, more recently, PayPal.
You can download the official app via the website if you’re an Android user, or via the App Store for iOS users.
From there, you can select from a range of draw games. Once your numbers are selected — either manually or with Quick Pick — you’ll receive a digital confirmation of your entry.
Never miss a draw with Auto-Renewal
One of iPLAY’s most convenient features is Auto-Renewal. With this, you can automatically enter your chosen games without having to log in each time. Auto-Renewal is available for games such as POWERBALL©, MEGA MILLIONS® and LOTTO AMERICA©. It’s managed directly through your account dashboard, where you can turn the feature on or off, or change your draw preferences at any time.
For players who follow recurring draws or want to ensure they never forget a ticket, Auto-Renewal is an easy way to stay in the game — on your schedule.
Introducing Jackpot Subscriptions: Customization meets convenience
If you only want to play when the jackpot hits a certain amount, iPLAY now offers Jackpot Threshold Auto-Renewal. This feature gives you full control over when you play. That’s right, when your selected game’s jackpot meets or exceeds your chosen threshold, iPLAY will automatically purchase a ticket on your behalf.
Jackpot Threshold Auto-Renewal can be available for POWERBALL©, MEGA MILLIONS®, and LOTTO AMERICA©. You can activate it from within your iPLAY account settings, where you’ll also be able to adjust your jackpot threshold at any time.
Play securely and responsibly
All transactions and game outcomes on iPLAY are backed by secure state-run systems. You’ll have access to responsible gaming tools, including deposit limits, time tracking, and self-exclusion options, giving you added control over your Lottery play.
And if you win, funds are credited directly to your account. For larger prizes, you’ll be guided through the official claim process online.
A trusted platform, a personalized experience
As digital play grows in West Virginia, iPLAY is proving itself as a reliable, official extension of the West Virginia Lottery. With built-in features like Auto-Renewal and Jackpot Chase, along with loyalty perks and secure ticket management, iPLAY offers a way to play your favorite games — your way.
