Second Chance Drawings open up the possibility to win big prizes even when you play a scratch game and lose. You can take your non-winning tickets and enter them into a bonus draw at no extra cost. Find out everything you need to know about the Colorado Lottery’s Second Chance program.
To enter a bonus draw in Colorado, you just need to provide a few details online such as your name, address and email address. It is free to submit your losing tickets, so just make sure to check which games are eligible for upcoming promotions if you are interested in taking part.
You can submit tickets in a couple of ways. One method is to enter the 22-digit serial number into the Colorado Lottery’s website. You can find this number under the scratch-off coating.
Alternatively, use the Colorado Lottery’s mobile app and scan the barcode to automatically generate your entries.
The entry deadlines and draw dates are displayed on the website. Each draw works differently – some may just award one prize but it might be worth as much as $1 million, while others might give away a number of lower payouts.
Bonus draws take place on a regular basis throughout the year and winners are announced shortly after each draw.
