All lotteries with no winnings can reportedly be submitted to the respective sale spot for additional draws. The new measure will reportedly offer additional win opportunities to players with the losing scratchcards. This transition process will be running until the end of 2024. Also, lottery winnings made in 2023 can be claimed in 2024. However, Veikkausreports that lottery tickets will be sold as usually by the end of 2023. As scratchcards still do not offer this facility, lottery winnings may be redeemed by players after the identification information of the lottery are loaded into the sales terminal for a prospective match. The identification reportedly enables the operator to have lottery winnings paid directly to the customer’s online or bank account and the practice has been operative in coupon games. Identification is already a familiar operating method to our customers.” Ville Venojärvi, director of Veikkaus lottery games, reportedly said: ”The conditions for identification of scratch cards are good, because we have a very large customer base with the identification of coupon games. As reported, the respective Veikkaus app may be used as a mobile version for the same purpose. The measure applicable to coupon games like Lotto and Eurojackpot since May 2023 has enabled players to use the dedicated Veikkaus card for other purposes as well, such as the personal or driving license identification.

The requirement for players to identify themselves when purchasing cards, claiming winnings, or otherwise participating in the game follows the mandatory identification checks introduced for coupon games earlier in 2023. The identification of players purchasing the popular Ässä or Casino lottery scratchcards will be required from January 1, 2024.

Veikkaus, the Finnish exclusive gambling operator, announces the introduction of mandatory identification measure for scratch games.
