Key Findings (3) – Scratch Games • Past week Scratch Game playership is up significantly in W2 from 30% to 39%. • 90% of Past Year players have played a $1 Scratch Game in the past year. • $5 tickets are purchased at higher frequencies on a monthly and annual basis than $3 tickets. Playership of $10 and $20 tickets are both up in W2. • Players in general are saying that they are spending less on Scratch Games on a year to year basis and this is driven primarily by the players having less money to spend. • The three key drivers for a Scratch Game purchase are ‘having spare money’, followed by ‘seeing the scratch tickets’ and also ‘feeling lucky’. • $55 is the average prize amount considered a “winning experience” across all Scratch Game players. • Awareness of the Second Chance Drawing for Instant Games has received a huge boost in Wave 2, up from 48% to 71%. • More than half of Scratch Game players who said they would take part in the 2nd chance drawing would be likely to increase their Scratch Game spend.
Key Findings (4) – Multi-State Games • 28% of respondents claim to have played Powerball in the Past Month. • 43% of Powerball players will spend more as jackpot size increases • 1/3 of Powerball players who spend more when the jackpot size grows increase their spend when the jackpot hits either $100 or $150 million. • 34% of Mega Millions players spend more than $10 in a typical month (very similar to Powerball at 35%). • 67% of Mega Millions players spent $5 or less the last time they played (again very similar to Powerball at 70%). • Over half of all respondents who play Powerball and Mega Millions spend the same on both games regardless of the size of each game’s jackpot! • Only 15% of those who play Powerball and Mega Millions will increase Mega Millions spend if jackpot is high, while also maintaining Powerball spend. • However, more Powerball players are now aware of Mega Millions in W2.
Key Findings (5) – Games, Spending & Issues • 15% of respondents who have played CO Lottery games have purchased a Millionaire Raffle ticket. • There is a strong opportunity to increase Raffle playership in Colorado as 35% of CO lottery players express an intent to purchase Bonus Millionaire Raffle tickets in the near future! (A gap of 20% between actual play and intended play) • There is a 50-50 split between those that play the same games each week and those that change the games they play. • 56% spend the same amount on Lottery every week, regardless of the games played. 56% of respondents believe they will not increase their lottery spending. • Friday and Saturday are the most popular days to buy CO Lottery tickets. • There appears to be a strong opportunity to increase play on Tuesday’s (which has seen a significant dip in W2) to levels similar to Wednesday’s. • 44% agree the price of gas has directly lowered their spend on the Colorado Lottery in W2! • There is a 5:1 ratio of Positive to Negative feelings about the Colorado Lottery! Only 8% of the population have a negative feeling towards the Lottery.
Key Findings (6) – The Powerball Future • 73% of Powerball players claim they would continue playing Powerball if it became a $2 game. • Only 11% claimed they would not play Powerball any more, with 16% undecided. • Just over half of Powerball players play PowerPlay in Colorado. • 2/3 of PowerPlay players say they would continue to utilize the PowerPlay feature even if the Powerball game moves to $2 price. • If Powerball went to a $2 game, 15% of Powerball players would increase spend overall and 20% would decrease spend overall. • 54% of players would spend roughly the same on all games, including Powerball, if Powerball increase to $2. • Of these 54%, 35% of these players would keep their spending across all games the same, and 19% would alter their levels by game.
Recommendations • Game Awareness, Ad Awareness and understanding of Mega Millions should be the #1 priority for the Colorado Lottery moving forward, as there is a great opportunity to increase player penetration. Once Lottery players actually play Mega Millions, the spend peripherals and patterns are similar to Powerball. • Looking at days where Players claim to play, the largest opportunity to increase Lottery purchases is Tuesday. Weekends and Wednesdays are already strong (as with most historical Powerball states). This can go hand in hand with Mega Millions. • There is a strong opportunity to increase Raffle playership in Colorado, with the last Raffle game only purchased by 15% of the population. 40% of CO lottery players express an intent to purchase Bonus Millionaire Raffle tickets in the near future, so an extra 25% of Lottery players claim they will Probably or Definitely play the Bonus Millionaire Raffle, compared to the last Raffle. • There appears to be a strong case for an increased use of Social Media in Lottery communications, specifically to ensure enough of the youngest age group, 18-34 year olds, are aware of Colorado Lottery games, promotions and jackpot sizes. • There does appear to be an opportunity in further educating Coloradoans about where the Lottery money proceeds are spent.
