About the Mississippi Lottery
The Mississippi Lottery was established in 2018 under the Alyce G. Clarke Mississippi Lottery Law, with ticket sales for Scratch-off games launching in late 2019. As we will discover, the portfolio of games has since expanded.
The Mississippi Lottery was founded to benefit the infrastructure and education systems of Mississippi.
Up to $80 million net proceeds will be paid into the State Highway Fund until 30 June 2028.
Any monies above $80 million in a fiscal year shall be transferred into the Education Enhancement Fund. From 1 July 2028, net proceeds up to $80 million will be transferred to the State General Fund, with monies above this figure still being deposited into the Education Enhancement Fund.
