Michigan Lottery Launches Next-Generation Mobile App Developed in Partnership With Gambyt

LANSING, Mich. (July 14, 2026) – The Michigan Lottery has launched a completely redesigned mobile application, delivering a modernized digital experience that enhances game discovery, ticket scanning, player engagement, and access to key lottery services.

Developed in partnership with Gambyt, the new application was built from the ground up with a focus on performance, stability, security, and user experience, creating a scalable foundation for future innovation while simplifying how players interact with both retail and digital lottery products.

Among the most visible enhancements is a reimagined game discovery experience that helps players explore Michigan Lottery offerings through curated content carousels, personalized recommendations, and the ability to save favorite games for quick access.

The app also introduces an all-new ticket scanning experience designed to create a faster and more engaging interaction for players. New features include haptic feedback, celebratory animations, and a scan-session dashboard that allows players to view results and track activity throughout their scanning experience.

The mobile application leverages Gambyt's Portal Plugins™ platform, enabling rapid deployment of lottery-specific digital experiences while maintaining a user experience tailored to Michigan Lottery's unique operational and regulatory requirements. Integrated capabilities include Scan-to-Earn, Global Search, and Claim Appointments, among other features.

In addition to player-facing improvements, the new platform provides operational efficiencies through a unified content management approach that allows Michigan Lottery staff to coordinate game launches, promotions, and content updates across both the mobile application and the Lottery's website.

The launch continues a longstanding partnership between Michigan Lottery and Gambyt, which has delivered multiple industry-first digital initiatives designed to connect retail and digital lottery experiences while improving convenience for players.

"The Michigan Lottery has consistently demonstrated a commitment to innovation and to enhancing the player experience," said Danny Bogus, Chief Executive Officer of Gambyt. "This launch reflects a shared vision of creating digital experiences that are engaging, reliable, and future-ready while supporting the Lottery's mission of generating revenue for public education."

Since its inception, the Michigan Lottery has contributed more than $30 billion to the Michigan School Aid Fund, supporting public education throughout the state. The redesigned mobile application represents the latest step in the Lottery's ongoing efforts to modernize player engagement and meet evolving consumer expectations.
