German operator of online lottery services that let consumers play state lottery draws and lottery-based betting products online.
Earns a commission on each state-lottery ticket it brokers online through Lotto24, so jackpot size drives ticket sales, and it adds bets on lottery results that it offers itself. German licences and rules on how lotteries may be sold online shape what it can offer.
