Abstract: A game play system and methods for facilitating game play purchases through a payment-enabled terminal store a plurality of records of game play number sets associated with respective payment card numbers. The association of game play number sets with respective payment card numbers allows for substantially “ticketless” lottery wagers, draws, scratch tickets, branded games, and second change games, access to game play purchases beyond the traditional manned lottery authority terminals, automatic redemption by associating a winning game play with a payment card number, and purchase of game plays using payment cards (e.g., debit or credit cards) instead of cash.

Abstract: A user device in a system for selling gaming products receives a game play request from a user. The user device detects being tapped to an external proximity-based communication enabled device using a communication interface that communicates over a proximity-based communication connection. Upon detecting that the user device has been tapped to the external proximity-based communication enabled device, the user device sends a gaming request associated with the game play request over a wireless network. The proximity-based communication protocols ensure that the gaming transaction occurs in a geographical location that is within the jurisdiction of the appropriate gaming authority.
