  • 3rd review yes legit system. Nothing to worry about

    My last review was bad due to not withdraw quick and slow. However I escalated and just received my withdrawal funds. So now I continue playing on here.
    Been playing since app started. It’s been promising but payout withdrawal is little slow. It took me a day and half to get my first withdrawal and it does work.
    After being all this yes this is only the way I play lotto now. They may charge % up front but that how it is, people need to get pay for doing this service. Anyway now I love it
    Thanks Mido and Customer service exceed my approval.
    Great job handling slight issue

  • Concerns

    I have some concerns about this entity… The app is fine but I have concerns about what would ACTUALLY happen if you WON a large lottery and tried to claim your $10M ticket etc. Would they suddenly disappear?? I checked with the official CA Lottery and they do Not sell online; so this is more like an escrow… which is great when you’re paying THEM, but what about when it’s time for THEM to pay YOU. I have not seen any verified stories of people winning BIG with this app and then actually getting paid out. I finally tried to cash out a small winning (less than $10) instead of rolling it over to a credit, and they made me fill out an e-form request to get the money in PayPal. I did receive the money ultimately but getting a few dollars is not the same as getting a WINNING LOTTERY ticket so who knows. In any event, I decided to stop using the app for now since I have no way of knowing if they’d pay out on a Million+ winner etc. Guess it’s time to go to the convenience store.

    We would love you to update your review and confirm that you received your winnings! Our winners to date have all successfully claimed winnings and would lose our business immediately if we didn't help the winners get their winnings!
  • LOVE LOVE LOVE

    I happen to come across Mido over a year ago during the pandemic. Since my son is terminal due to a lung disease, we do not leave our house and I missed playing a couple of times a week. After researching Mido, I signed up and have been having so much fun since. Being shut in during the pandemic has been very difficult. At least we can still enjoy playing the lotto during these uncertain times. I LOVE the fact that when you do win, I recently won on Fantasy 5, you can access your winnings either thru an e-check or a PayPal account and get it within minutes.

  • Do not get this app! Read below

    At first I loved this app and was super excited about it. However, I will be deleting it after tonight’s drawing. Here are the problems:

    I won a free play with Fantasy 5, this means if you go to the store you will get a free ticket with numbers. On here, however, they are suppose to give you a new ticket with numbers. Well I never received it and all it says is that I won it but it’s pending. This was last night. Now it’s late in the day and still no new ticket. I contacted them and they completely ignored what I said and replied with a response that was not what I contacted them about.

    Another big problem is that if you win money, you will have to WAIT for them to either mail the tickets to you, assuming you ever get them, or they claim there might be a place somewhere (could be far) that you could go, and that’s a big IF.

    I have a 7-11 right here by my place and so many other stores that I can simply get the ticket and collect my winnings quickly when that happens. This is simply not worth it and you may never see your winnings, too risky.

    Another problem is when you set up online banking, it’s not permanent bc they will make you do it repeatedly for security.

    This app is way more trouble than it’s worth.

    Please contact us at cs@lottery-now.com to help you. We have a fully staffed, US based support team to answer questions and help customers. Given our model there is a slight delay fulfilling your Fantasy 5 free plays, however they are always fulfilled before the next draw and your numbers are both emailed to you and available through the app before the draw.
  • Good so far

    I am really loving this app. I absolute hate going to the store to buy lottery tickets because I like to pay with my debit card and they keep changing to only cash and no debit cards accepted and then randomly debit cards would be accepted, so it’s nice to be able to avoid being turned away simply because I have to pay with cash. I buy my tickets through the app which takes 10 seconds. Super easy and quick. I’m just unsure on what happens if you win more than $600, do they hand deliver the ticket to you in person?

  • Won $341 using Mido Lotto

    After using the app for less than a month, I won $341 playing Fantasy 5 two days ago. I matched 4 out of 5 numbers, playing just 1 ticket in which I chose my own numbers. The app is very convenient if you are a regular lotto player. No more driving to the nearest convenient store. No more missing tickets. No more filling out and wasting paper tickets. Plus, I was pleasantly surprised to receive my winnings in less than 2 hours after emailing it to customer service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Congratulations! People in CA are loving Fantasy 5 and winning big prizes.
  • Too many notifications

    The app settings force you to keep 2 of the 3 notification settings on so the app can push notifications to you reminding you to play. You literally have to block the app in the iOS settings from sending you notifications at all if you don’t want reminders every day on how big the prize is. How this isn’t a violation of App Store guidelines is beyond me. If that’s not enough they don’t only use push notifications they also will use the phone number you sign up with to text you these same reminders. Again this is clearly spam that I didn’t ask for.. I also don’t understand how the app is allowed to link directly to PayPal for loading money into the app.. any other app is supposed to use in app purchase or go through the App Store. They specifically say they “digitize” your ticket so I feel like the App Store policies should apply to them.

  • DO NOT DOWNLOAD FRAUD

    They are using a 3rd party company to fund customers accounts. The company name is SKRILL. This company has hit multiple customers with fraudulent transactions.
    There is no contact phone number for either companies

    He is an email from there OPs manager

    Hi Chad, this is Hamish, I'm the Head of Operations at Mido Lotto and the person who sent you the email in your screenshot. I'm sorry that you were one of the few customers who were impacted by the issue that our payment processor, Skrill, experienced with their bank. I can understand your frustration - seeing bank transactions duplicated can be stressful. I'd like you to know that these issues happen from time-to-time; this particular error affected a number of businesses, not just Mido Lotto. I'd also like you to know that we are actively migrating our users from the payment platform that you used (Skrill) to a new payment platform that offers a much better user experience (PayWithMyBank by Trustly). Please reach out to me if you'd like help getting set up with the new platform. In the meantime, please use the link in the email I sent you to let us know how you'd like the duplicate transaction to be resolved. We're working closely with the team at Skrill to reach a resolution for all of those impacted as quickly as possible.

  • Won't load money via PayPal

    The only options to load money is through paypal or signing into your bank account through their website. I've never heard of this app so I don't trust it enough to login with my bank so I tried to load $10 via paypal but after signing into PayPal it's just a blank page. I still don't know how much I trust so I will be changing my PayPal password just to be safe. Good idea and convenient but don't I cannot put enough trust into them to use my bank information. Was worth a try.

    Edit: (Response to developer) I have 2 bank accounts linked to Paypal. I will contact them to see what's up. Will change review if I can get it to work.

    PayPal requires you to have a bank account linked to your PayPal account (not just a credit or debit card, but to use your bank username/password to link your bank to PayPal to order Lottery tickets). If you don't they dead-end you to a blank page (they are working to fix the bug that causes the dead end instead of prompting you to add a bank account). Please contact PayPal for help if you've directly linked your bank account, or contact us at cs@lottery-now.com. Note: We have nearly 3,000 5-star reviews so clearly customers are trusting us.
  • Highly recommended

    I don’t play lotto all of the time but I do sometimes. I try to stay out of convenience stores. So this app becomes very convenient on those occasions that I want to spend a buck or two on lotto.

    I also really like the group options, we have a coworker group, a family group, and my girlfriend and I have our own 2-some group (LOL!)

    As for the customer service, I think that is why I am writing this review, we have received nothing but world-class customer service from them and we would really like to see this app takeoff. So we both highly recommend downloading this app and trying it out.
