You May Be Able To Buy Scratch Tickets With Your Debit Card Soon In MA
Gov. Charlie Baker submitted a new budget on Wednesday and in it he proposes allowing Lottery players the ability to buy products like scratch tickets and draw game numbers via debit cards. Credit cards would still be a no-no.
Treasurer Deborah Goldberg said in a statement: “Although the Massachusetts State Lottery is performing at its highest levels, we must make sure it is well-positioned in this increasingly competitive environment. To continue to perform at our best, we need the flexibility of cashless transactions to meet the demands of our changing marketplace.”
Baker’s proposal must now be approved by the Legislature.
