Verify Your michiganlotery Account

Account verification confirms that your michiganlotery account belongs to you — it's how we keep your balance secure and make sure payouts reach the right person. You'll typically need a government-issued photo ID and a document that confirms your address, like a utility bill or bank statement. Upload them through the verification section in your account settings; the review happens on our

end without you needing to do anything extra after submitting. Completing verification early means your first withdrawal request won't hit a delay. Think of it less as a hurdle and more as the step that locks your account to you specifically.

  • Open account settings — Navigate to the verification section inside your account settings. The page lists exactly which documents are needed based on your account status.
  • Upload a government-issued photo ID — A driver's license or passport works. Upload a clear image of both sides where applicable — blurry photos are the most common reason for a re-submission request.
  • Add a proof-of-address document — A recent utility bill, bank statement, or official mail showing your name and current address satisfies this step. The document should be dated within the past few months.
  • Wait for confirmation — Our team reviews your submission and updates your account status. You'll receive a notification once verification is complete and payouts are unlocked.

Adding funds starts inside the account wallet — tap the cashier from your phone or browser and you'll see PayPal, Venmo, and Play+ listed alongside online banking and debit card. PayPal and Venmo deposits link through your existing app credentials, so there's no card number to type. Play+ works like a prepaid card you reload ahead of time. Choose the method that

fits your routine, enter the amount, and confirm. Your balance reflects the deposit once the payment clears on the method's end. No invented timelines here — clearing speed depends on the payment rail you pick.

  • Open the cashier — Log into your account and tap the cashier icon in the menu — it's accessible from both mobile and desktop without leaving your current session.
  • Select your payment method — Choose PayPal, Venmo, Play+ prepaid, online banking, or debit card from the list. Each method shows any account-specific notes before you proceed.
  • Enter the amount and confirm — Type the deposit amount, review the summary screen, and authorize through your chosen payment app or card. No extra forms beyond what that payment method requires.
  • Check your balance — Once the payment clears, your michiganlotery balance updates. You'll see the new total in the account wallet at the top of the screen.
PAYMENT METHODS

How You Can Deposit and Withdraw

Your michiganlotery account supports the payment methods Michigan players actually use day to day. PayPal and Venmo connect through apps already on most phones, while Play+ gives you a prepaid card option you can load and manage separately. Online banking and debit card round out the list for anyone who prefers to pull directly from their checking account. Each method appears in the cashier with its own flow — pick what works for your routine, not what works for ours.

PayPal Link your PayPal account in the cashier for deposits and withdrawals. No card number required — authorize through the PayPal app on your phone.
Venmo Connect Venmo to send funds to your balance or pull winnings back to your Venmo wallet. Works alongside an existing Venmo account.
Play+ Load your Play+ prepaid card ahead of time and use it like a standard card at the cashier. Useful for keeping lottery spending separate from your main account.
Online Banking Transfer directly from your checking account via online banking. The cashier walks you through the connection flow with your bank's login.
Debit Card Standard Visa or Mastercard debit cards are accepted at the cashier for straightforward deposits linked to your checking account.

Withdrawals run through the same payment section as deposits. PayPal and Venmo are the two methods most accounts use for payouts — they route directly back to the wallet you connected during setup. Play+ carries a balance you can spend or transfer out. Before your first withdrawal clears, the account verification step needs to be complete; that protects your funds and keeps

the payout flowing to the right person. Enter your withdrawal amount, confirm the destination, and the request enters processing. Speed depends on the payment rail — we do not promise a specific window we cannot control.

  • Head to the cashier — Open the cashier from your account menu and select the Withdraw tab. Your eligible payout methods appear based on what you used to deposit.
  • Pick a payout destination — Select PayPal, Venmo, or Play+ as your withdrawal destination. The account linked during deposit setup is shown automatically for your confirmation.
  • Enter the amount — Type how much you want to withdraw. The screen shows your available balance so you can see exactly what's eligible before you submit the request.
  • Complete any pending verification — If your account verification is not yet finished, you'll be prompted to complete it before the payout releases. Once cleared, the request moves to processing.
