With lottery operations in 10 states, including New Jersey, New York, and Texas, Jackpocket will be the first third-party lottery service to enter the online casino space in the Garden State.

"Following our recent $120M Series D financing, Jackpocket's mission is to expand into new gaming verticals, and we are confident that lottery fans will be interested in new ways to play including slots, bingo, and table games," said Jackpocket CEO Peter Sullivan. "Our user research has shown a high correlation between Jackpocket lottery players and those who enjoy casino-style gaming.
