Start dreaming! What would you do if you won a $322 million Powerball jackpot? You can try your luck from Costa Rica!

“I imagine there are lottery players all over the world dreaming about what homes and cars they might buy, the holidays they might take, and with whom they might share their prize if they are lucky enough to win a $322 Powerball jackpot,” states Adrian Cooremans.

“Of course, the only way that someone could win a Powerball jackpot is by playing the Powerball lottery. In the past, this meant traveling to the United States to purchase Powerball tickets in person. Amazingly, this is no longer necessary,” he adds.

Cooremans is spokesman for theLotter.net, the world’s leading online lottery ticket purchasing service. “Millions of people from all over the world, are ordering their tickets with us,” Cooremans says. “We are glad to offer our services to residents of Costa Rica as well. You could win the biggest lottery prize in the world without leaving your home in Costa Rica!”

Here’s how it works

“According to Powerball rules, you do not have to be an American citizen or resident to play American lotteries,” Cooremans explains. “By utilizing the online lottery ticket purchasing services of theLotter, you can participate in Powerball draws with official tickets with the same chance of winning as someone who bought their tickets themselves.”

Playing the lottery online at theLotter is a simple process:

1. Sign up at theLotter.com

2. Select the Powerball lottery

3. Choose 5 numbers (from 1-69) on the playing form

4. Choose 1 ‘Powerball’ number (from 1-26) in the orange field on the form

5. Confirm your ticket purchase

“When you order Powerball tickets online with us, our local agents in the US will purchase them on your behalf,” Cooremans says.

A small surcharge is added to ticket prices to cover the cost of this service. After being purchased, each ticket is scanned and uploaded to a customer’s account before the draw. With this scanned version of the ticket and email confirmation, customers can rest assured that they have full ownership of their tickets.

If you are lucky enough to win, your prize will be transferred to your secure, private account, and you can withdraw it at any time. The good news is that theLotter does not take any commissions from winning tickets (lottery prizes are subject to tax deductions in the United States).

Real winners

Over the years, theLotter has paid out more than $100 million in prizes to over 6 million winners from across the globe. The stories of theLotter’s biggest winners show that no matter where you are in the world, you can play, and possibly win, huge American jackpot prizes without purchasing your tickets in person in the United States.

All of these media sites noted that it was perfectly legal for foreigners to win American lottery prizes by purchasing official tickets online at theLotter.
