The Oregon Lottery has added a mobile app in an effort to attract younger players and keep pace with the growing iGaming and iLottery market, Willamette Week reports.

The new app will let players verify wins and losses for scratch-its, draw games and keno. For winning ticket holders, the app offers “built-in excitement” to enhance the experience.

The app is now available at the Apple Store, and will be added to the Google Play Store in November.

The lottery plans to offer virtual online sports and sports betting in the future, but has not released a timeframe.
