SEGG Media has announced a significant return to the American lottery sector through the revival of its Lottery.com brand. The relaunch includes two major initiatives: a nationwide lottery rewards program and affiliate agreements with state-run iLottery operations in Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Michigan.

The decision comes at a time of heightened lottery activity, with the Powerball jackpot reaching $1.3 billion. This surge in attention provides SEGG Media with a unique opportunity to reintroduce Lottery.com to a wider audience while aligning with the ongoing digital shift in the industry.

Building on iLottery Momentum

According to a Gallup survey, more than 143 million Americans purchase lottery tickets every year, underscoring the vast size of the market SEGG Media aims to re-enter. iLottery remains the fastest-expanding area of the industry. Kentucky Lottery’s performance highlights this trend, reporting $671 million in online lottery sales during 2024, which accounted for nearly a third of its total sales. That same program is projected to grow another 26% in 2025.

By pursuing affiliate partnerships with established state lotteries, SEGG Media avoids competing directly with regulators and instead positions itself as a supportive partner. This approach is designed to help states reach modern, digital-first consumers while offering SEGG access to a proven and growing revenue stream.

Gregory Potts, Chief Operating Officer of SEGG Media, emphasized this strategy in a statement reported by GlobeNewswire: “Massive prizes like this week’s Powerball estimated $1.3 Billion jackpot bring out the casual players and introduce new consumers to the fun and excitement of lottery games. As more states adopt iLottery programs, we will use the Lottery.com brand to promote and expand those digital initiatives and increase the community benefits supported through lottery ticket sales across the country. Through our rewards program, SEGG Media will deliver a win-win solution that supports state lotteries, creates more value for players, and drives growth for retailers. We strongly believe our shareholders will see the value in using the Lottery.com brand to support, rather than compete, with local retailers and state lottery associations.”

According to SEGG Media via GlobeNewswire, alongside the affiliate strategy, SEGG Media is preparing to roll out a rewards program tailored to both players and retailers. Through this system, participants can gain access to promotions, special rewards, and unique experiences. For retailers, the program offers new ways to engage customers while strengthening their role in lottery distribution.

The company has confirmed that the program will launch in phases later in 2025. Specific participating states and retailers are expected to be revealed in the weeks ahead. The model is structured to encourage loyalty, appealing to both long-time lottery players and those who play occasionally when jackpots reach record-breaking sums.

Technology and User Experience

The Lottery.com app will play a central role in the company’s renewed push. The app allows users in active states to purchase Powerball, Mega Millions, and other lottery tickets directly from their mobile devices. Features include quick number selection, instant access to draw dates and jackpot totals, and notifications when jackpots grow significantly.

Players who win retain 100% of their prizes, which can either be withdrawn securely to their bank accounts or used for further ticket purchases. The platform uses advanced technology for identity, age, and location verification, ensuring compliance with regulations while maintaining user safety.

Millions have already used the Lottery.com app, with strong reviews highlighting the convenience of avoiding store visits and the reassurance of secure digital play. With SEGG Media’s renewed focus on the U.S. market, this app is set to be a key driver in player engagement.

Industry analysts view SEGG Media’s reentry as a measured move that leverages digital growth trends rather than competing directly with existing operators. By blending affiliate partnerships with an innovative rewards platform, the company creates two complementary revenue streams. This shift reflects a more sustainable approach than previous efforts, relying less on high upfront costs and more on collaboration with established state programs.
