Atlantic Lottery has announced that players now have an additional six months to claim prizes for tickets that have an expiry date from March 17, 2020 up to and including September 17, 2020.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Atlantic Lottery temporarily closed its prize claim offices and put measures in place to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Atlantic Lottery recognizes that these measures have affected some players’ ability to claim prizes. As a result, an expiry date extension has been put in place to ensure players are able to receive the prizes they are entitled to.

Players who purchase lottery tickets for draw-based games typically have up to one year from the date of the draw to claim their prize.

The six-month prize claim extension also applies to all Scratch’N Win tickets that have an expiry on the ticket between March 17, 2020 and September 17, 2020.

At this time, Atlantic Lottery encourages players to put their health and safety first by staying home except for essential purchases. Lottery tickets are conveniently available for purchase online at alc.ca or on the Atlantic Lottery mobile app.
