LottoClose is the fastest way for convenience stores to close out their scratch off lottery shifts. Instead of counting tickets by hand and doing the math on paper, your cashiers scan each pack's last ticket and LottoClose does the rest carrying numbers forward from the previous shift, calculating exactly what sold, reconciling the cash drawer, and flagging shortages before they walk out the door. Built for busy people behind the counter, it turns a 30 minute end of shift headache into a couple of taps. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Scan to close — point your camera at the ticket barcode; the app reads the game and ticket number instantly (or enter it by hand). • Automatic sales math — starting numbers carry over from the last shift, so you only scan end tickets. • Cash reconciliation — count your drawer and instantly see if you're over, short, or balanced. • Shortage alerts — owners get notified the moment a shift comes up short. • Owner dashboard — see today's sales and every cashier's numbers at a glance, across shifts. • Built-in price book — your state's scratch-off games and prices, ready to go and updated regularly. • Multiple cashiers — each signs in with their own PIN, and sales are tracked per person. FOR STORE OWNERS AND THEIR TEAMS Whether you run one store or several, LottoClose gives you a clear, honest picture of your scratch-off business without the paperwork and keeps everyone accountable. LottoClose is a back office management tool for lottery retailers. It does not sell tickets, offer any form of gambling, or facilitate wagering of any kind. It simply helps stores track inventory and reconcile cash. Questions? Email support@lottoclose.app
