Abstract: A system enables lottery ticket transactions in a fueling forecourt by permitting the purchase of lottery tickets at a fuel dispenser. In the system, customers pay for lottery tickets through the fuel dispenser payment acceptors in conjunction with fuel purchases. Payment may be by cash, credit, or wireless credit storage device, with the cost of the lottery ticket or tickets added to the cost of the fueling transaction. The lottery ticket dispensers may be integrated within the individual fuel dispensers, one to each dispenser, or may be apart from the fuel dispensers with one or more lottery ticket dispensers located elsewhere within the forecourt area. The system provides a range of lottery ticket choices including pre-printed tickets, random-number tickets, and customer-number tickets. The system provides a convenient alternative to in-store lottery ticket transactions by allowing fueling customers to purchase and receive lottery tickets without need of entering the store.
