| Q. |
What is the Lottery VIP Club? |
| |
|
| A. |
In January 2002, the New Jersey Lottery enhanced its Winning Number Results email service and made it part of the VIP Club. In addition to the Winning Number Results emails, the VIP Club is a FREE service that offers early notification of new games as well as chances to be entered into drawings for prizes. From time to time, VIP Club members will receive discounts or FREE coupons for New Jersey Lottery products. The VIP Club is much like the services participants previously had except now members can select what type of emails or services they wish to receive. |

| |

Q. |
I signed up to receive the Lottery Winning Numbers email, but I am not receiving them. |
| |
|
|
A. |
The Lottery Winning Number Results email is sent out every day at 5 a.m. to all subscribers as a bulk email. You or your email service provider may have set preferences on your email service to prevent you from receiving bulk emails. Please contact your email service provider if you are not receiving your Winning Numbers Results email. |
|
Q. |
I can't get into the VIP Club to update my profile. |
| |
|
|
A. |
If you are attempting to access the VIP Club web site from a Local Area Network (LAN) such as your place of employment, you may be receiving an "error" message because of a firewall. Firewalls inhibit your computer's ability to access our VIP Club web site, and as a result, you may have to use a different computer (i.e. home computer, public computer or a laptop) to gain entry to the VIP Club web site. You may wish to consult with your Network Administrator. |
|
Q. |
I have WebTV and I am having problems getting to the VIP Club. |
| |
|
|
A. |
WebTV reformats web sites so that they can be viewed on your TV. Because of this, many web site applications, such as the VIP Club, will not work with WebTV. If you are interested in becoming a VIP Club member please contact us at 1-800-222-0996. |
|
Q. |
I no longer want to be a VIP Club member. How do I discontinue my membership? |
| |
|
|
A. |
Click here to discontinue your VIP Club membership or email your request to NJ Lottery VIP Club. |
|
Q. |
What are “opt-in” drawings? |
| |
|
|
A. |
Opt-In drawings are drawings available exclusively to VIP Club members who elect to receive special emails from the NJ Lottery as part of their membership preferences. By clicking on the identified “Enter Here” link within the body of each opt-in email, you automatically will be entered for the prize named in that email. A winner will then be selected only from those who have “opted in”. |
|
Q. |
What if I am not interested in the prize being offered in an opt-in email and do not want to be entered? |
| |
|
|
A. |
Simply do not click on the “Enter Here” link and delete the email. Entry will only be for those who specifically click on the link. |
|
Q. |
Do I have to be a member of the VIP Club to submit non-winning ticket entries for Lottery Bonus Zone games? |
| |
|
|
A. |
No, it is not mandatory to become a VIP Club member to submit your entries, as you have the option to physically mail them to the address listed for each Lottery Bonus Zone game. However, if you are a VIP Club member, you can save yourself a stamp as well as some time by entering your non-winning tickets online at www.njlottery.net . Entering non-winning tickets online is an option available only to VIP Club members. |
|
Q. |
I signed up to receive emails from the New Jersey Lottery, but after not finding them in my email “inbox”, I discovered the emails are being directly sent to my “junk” file. Is there anything I can do to correct this? |
| |
|
|
A. |
In order to prevent NJ Lottery emails from going directly to your “junk email” file, simply add the New Jersey Lottery to your “Contacts” or “Address Book” for your email account that is registered for your VIP Club membership. |
