TX Lottery website has a notice that courier services are being prohibited. Proposed rule amendments are published. Rules will be proposed to the board on March 4. That didn't take long.

Florida: 12/1 - 12/31/2024Reply
That is a challenging sentence to read. You seem to disagree with something, but I can't tell what. A company won't do business if they are going to be constantly harassed in court and forced to spend more in legal fees that what it would take to operate there. If Florida is going to go after them even if Florida ultimately is not successful in court it makes no sense to endure that as a company. So I totally understand why TheLotter (or any other lottery courier) would not do business in th

A Texas Lottery jackpot was "bought" last year, but legislators are pushing wrong solutionReply

Actually you are only half right and half wrong. Using a courier service in another state that doesn't tax the Lottery win other than the required Federal Tax in that state doe not require you to pay a State Lottery Tax in your home State.

Yes, I think you can. I asked that question a while back and Todd answered I think you could purchase a ticket from an anonymous state if they allowed a lotto courier.

Has lottery courier service turned into a betting platform?Reply
The man who ordered the ticket was both: He was from Iraq and was in Iraq at the time of the Jackpot win as well. The courier bought the ticket from a regular lottery retailer in Oregon on the other man's behalf.
