The Michigan Lottery has teamed up with PayPal to offer players a new and convenient way to fund their online game accounts.

Beginning Monday, players will be able to use PayPal to fund their accounts to play the Lottery’s online games. To make a deposit into their Lottery account, players must have a balance in their PayPal account or the account must be linked to a financial institution account.

Players also may withdraw winnings and direct them to their PayPal accounts. To withdraw funds and put them in a PayPal account, players first must have successfully deposited funds into their online accounts using their PayPal account.

Michigan Lottery players have a chance to win up to $500,000 instantly playing online.  Through its online platform, the Lottery offers players more than 30 different games with plays ranging in price from 5 cents to $20. The Lottery added four draw games – Powerball, Mega Millions, Lotto 47, and Fantasy 5 – to its online offerings in January.

More than 276,000 players have registered to play the Lottery’s online games, which were launched in 2014. For more information or to play online, visit http://bit.ly/MSLOnlineGames.
