Where to Play

You can play the Ganesha Bumper from anywhere in India. Whether you’re located in Maharashtra or Manipur, Goa or Gujarat, the game is available in every state. You’ll also find it in many other countries around the world.

The Ganesha Bumper is not like other bumper draws which you can only play from the same state where it is being held. It is part of Lotto India, a game which was developed for the whole of India.

It’s an online-only lottery, so you won’t find playslips at your local store. Instead, all you need is a phone, tablet or computer and you can take part from the comfort of your own home or if you’re out and about. It’s easy to set up an account - just register and verify using your email address. You just have to be at least 18 years of age.

As it is an online game, it is tailored towards players in different states and also different countries. There are various banking options and a payment process which is done automatically so you receive prizes without having to travel anywhere to claim.
