Georgia Lottery Online Self-Exclusion

Georgia gambling self-exclusion has one verified state-operated route: Georgia Lottery Players Club members can use the official Play Break control to suspend online and mobile lottery play. The available terms are three months, six months, one year, two years, five years, or ten years. This control applies to the Georgia Lottery online account. It does not stop retail ticket purchases or create a statewide exclusion from every form of gambling.

How to Self-Exclude from Georgia Lottery Online Play

Review the account restrictions before confirming because Georgia Lottery says the selected term cannot be reversed early.

  1. Sign in to your Georgia Lottery Players Club account and open My Account
  2. Select Play Break (Self-Exclusion)
  3. Choose three months, six months, one year, two years, five years, or ten years
  4. Review what will happen to account access, funds, online purchases, second-chance entries, and promotional messages before continuing
  5. Select Proceed to confirm the exclusion
  6. Contact the Player Information Hotline at 1-800-425-8259 if you need help with the official process

Removal, Expiry, and Account Reopening

Georgia Lottery says it cannot reverse an active self-exclusion for any reason. After the selected term expires, call 1-800-425-8259 to request account reactivation. The account remains suspended if you do not request reactivation, and a request is subject to Georgia Lottery review.

Important Notes

This is an online Georgia Lottery account control, not a statewide gambling exclusion. It does not block retail lottery sales, coin-operated amusement machines, gambling outside Georgia, or unlicensed sites. Use separate account, payment, and device barriers for routes outside the Players Club program.
