Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for purchase, activation and use of a pre-paid lottery voucher for purchase and play of electronic lottery tickets on an electronic device. The pre-paid lottery vouchers act as a recording device for all transactions associated with the lottery voucher. Each electronic ticket purchased with the pre-paid lottery voucher is recorded against a unique voucher identification at a remote digital lottery game control system. Players can play through the number of electronic tickets that the pre-paid voucher entitles them to and then redeem the pre-paid voucher for any winnings that the lottery voucher is entitled to. Winnings can only be redeemed for payout at an authorized lottery redemption agent and cannot be used for purchase of additional electronic lottery tickets, thereby providing a play responsibly feature.
