As the digital landscape evolves,
we continue to embrace technology
and innovation with our iLottery
platform. Players can purchase tickets via our website and mobile app
while also supporting their favorite
local retailers.
We are expanding our presence
at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport with a new Georgia Lottery store on Concourse B,
where passengers beyond security
checkpoints will be able to purchase
tickets. Our Georgia Lottery kiosks
located in the airport’s North and
South terminal baggage claim areas
remain among our busiest retail locations in the state.
In the past year, we’ve enjoyed
five Mega Millions and Powerball
jackpots that surpassed the $1
billion threshold while grabbing
headlines statewide. These large
jackpots are always exciting and
help generate additional dollars for
HOPE and Pre-K.

We also receive profit from Coin
Operated Amusement Machines, or
COAMs, which we are responsible
for regulating. The Georgia Lottery
remains committed to responsible
gaming practices and we work hard
to ensure that our players have the
tools and resources needed to play
responsibly.
Over our 31-year history, the
Georgia Lottery has achieved phenomenal success. We recognize that
our achievements are a team effort,
and we are grateful to the many who
have supported and championed us
over the years. We extend our deepest appreciation to Governor Kemp,
the legislature, our board of directors,
advisory boards, education partners,
retailers, vendors, corporate partners,
employees and players.
Together, we have accomplished
great things, and I am confident
that together we will shape an even
brighter future for Georgia.
Gretchen Corbin is the President and CEO of
the Georgia Lottery Corporation.
