(a) To enter an Eligible ticket into a Promotion Drawing, a player may use the Florida Lottery's website at flalottery.com or use the Florida Lottery's Mobile Convenience App ("App"). 1. Website. On the home page of the Florida Lottery's website, players are to click on the PROMOTIONS tab, select the Daily Cash Bonus Play Promotion and follow the directions. Players will be prompted to log-in or register. Players using the website may manually enter the 19-digit ticket number (omitting spaces and dashes) on the ticket entry page to collect entries as described in subsection (3), below.2. App. On the App, players may click on either of the Promotions buttons, select the Daily Cash Bonus Play Promotion, and follow the directions. Players will be prompted to log-in or register if not already logged in. A Promotions button is located on the main menu and on the bottom navigation bar. Players may scan the barcode on the bottom of a ticket or may manually enter the 19-digit ticket number on the ticket entry page to collect entries as further described in subsection (3) below.3. Whether using the App or the website, tickets may not be entered during the first two (2) hours after ticket purchase. (I.e., a player needs to wait for two hours after ticket purchase to enter tickets.)4. Regardless of whether a player chooses to participate in the Promotion by using the web browser or the App, the following provisions shall apply: a. the player must use the same account login information to enter tickets;b. the player will only be required to register one time; andc. the player's entry history will be cumulative among the entry platforms.(b) Deleted Accounts. If a player deletes his/her account, whether through the App or on the Florida Lottery's website, all account data associated with the email address used to register his/her account will also be deleted. Any entries earned, as described in subsection (3), below, will not be entered into a drawing. A player's account cannot be reactivated using the email associated with the deactivated account. Should a player establish a new account utilizing a different email address, account data, including ticket entries, cannot be transferred to the newly established account. Tickets entered under the prior account cannot be re-entered utilizing the newly created account.(c) Any player using multiple or different email addresses, identities, registrations, logins, or any other methods will subject the player and any associated entries to disqualification. In the event a player wins a prize, the name a player uses to register must match the name shown on his/her identification used to make a claim, except for a person who has made a legal name change. A person who has made a legal name change must provide a copy of a marriage certificate/judgment/court order, as applicable, as proof of a differing name. Fictitious names and business names will not be accepted and shall subject the player and any associated entries to disqualification.(d) The odds of winning in a drawing depend on the number of entries. All entries are subject to validation by the Florida Lottery and may be disqualified if eligibility requirements are not met.(e) Lottery tickets should not be mailed to the Lottery for entry into the drawing. Lottery tickets received in the mail by the Florida Lottery for entry into the Promotion will not be entered into a drawing and will not be returned.(3) How to Earn Entries. (a) Collecting Entries. To collect play symbols and earn entries into a Promotion Drawing, a player may enter ticket numbers by scanning the barcode on the bottom of an Eligible ticket using his or her mobile device or by manually entering the 19-digit ticket number on the website or the App. Thereafter, four game cards will appear on the screen. Each game card contains four symbol spots. For each Eligible ticket entered, and regardless of ticket price/value, the player will be randomly awarded either 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 symbols towards completing the game cards. Awarded symbols will be placed randomly on available game cards. When all four symbols have been collected on a game card, the player will earn one "entry" into the next available drawing. When a filled game card generates an entry into the drawing, the symbols will be cleared on that game card, and a player can begin collecting more symbols on the card. A player may earn multiple entries during an entry period; however, a player can only win one draw prize per entry. A player may enter a maximum of 200 tickets per day. Each ticket number can only be entered one time and cannot be entered again during another drawing period. Training tickets will not be accepted, and tickets with invalid ticket numbers will be disqualified. The hours for ticket entry are between 6:00 a.m. (ET) and midnight (ET) seven days a week during the Promotion Period.(b) Bonus Drawing Entries. 1. For all bonus drawing entries, as described below, there will be four (4) rows for Eligible Draw game (CASH POP, PICK 2, PICK 3, PICK 4, PICK 5, FANTASY 5, and CASH4LIFE) ticket entry (hereafter "bonus entry row/s"). Each bonus entry row will have one space for each of the seven Eligible Draw game tickets. Once a bonus entry row has been completed in accordance with subparagraphs (3)(b)2. or 3., below, the row will be cleared and available for new entries. If more than four tickets for the same Draw game are entered, and none of the four bonus entry rows are completed, entries in excess of the four tickets will be disregarded, will not be added once a bonus entry row is cleared, and cannot be entered again. Discarded ticket entries will still acquire symbols as described in paragraph (3)(a), above. Example: A player purchases and enters six (6) CASH POP tickets but has not purchased and entered other Eligible tickets to complete a bonus entry row. Two of the CASH POP tickets will be discarded for the purposes of filling bonus entry rows but will still acquire symbols as described in paragraph (3)(a), above. A sample bonus entry row grid is shown below. The dates in the CASH POP column represent entry dates. No other CASH POP tickets can be entered until at least one (1) bonus entry row has been completed with the entry of the other six (6) Eligible Draw game tickets. | PICK 2 | PICK 3 | PICK 4 | PICK 5 | CASH POP | CASH4LIFE | FANTASY 5 | BONUS |
