Welcome to DSI Lotto. With DSI Pick 3 and Pick 4, you can win over 2x per dollar wagered compared to what a gas station Pick 3 and Pick 4 ticket would pay. DSI lotto is graded on the same official results as the regular lottery but with much higher payouts. Below you will find game types, game modes, payouts, game mechanics and important rules.
Lotto
We offer two main game types: Pick 3 and Pick 4.
- To play a Pick 3, customers must select numbers from 000 through 999.
- To play a Pick 4, customers you must select numbers from 0000 through 9999.
For each game type, a customer can select either Boxed or Straight:
- “Straight” means that the numbers customers select and the numbers that are drawn for a lottery must match in exact order. So, if a customer selects 123, the customer only wins if the official lottery result is exactly 123. If the official lottery result is 321, 213, etc., the bet is graded as a loss.
- “Boxed” means that customers numbers can match official lottery results in any order. So, if a customer selects 123, the bet is marked as a win with any result that has those 3 digits, including 123, 132, 213, 231, 312, and 321. Since there are more chances to win this way, the payouts are lower. The payout will depend on the number of repeat numbers within your selection.

To play the DSI Lotto, customers need to complete a 5-step process:
Step 1- Select Numbers
Customers have 3 options for selecting numbers:
- "Numbers" - With numbers customers can select multiple numbers that will be combined in every possible way, very much like a round robin.
- "Input" - Here, customers can type in the numbers they want to purchase.
- "Quick Pick" - This allows the random selection of between 1 and 25 tickets. This option bypasses steps 2, 3 and 4. Customer go straight to step 5 to confirm the automated selection before the bet is placed.
As an example, a customer might select the numbers 751 and 752.
Step 2- Amount
Here customers select the amount they wish to risk per ticket. Customers can choose from pre-defined amounts, or type in any amount to place at risk within customer limits. The amount input here is on a per-number basis.
As an example, a customer might select $2 on step 2. Since in our example, on step 1 we have 2 number sets (751, 752), and $2 is the amount to be placed at risk on each one, the customer would be spending $4 for these 2 tickets.
Step 3- Days
Here customers have two ways of selecting dates:
- "Days to Run" - Customers can select a running number of days from a start date that they wish to purchase tickets for. So selecting as an example 10 days starting the 1st of the month would buy tickets for each day of he month including 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th.
- "Select Days" – Customers can select specific dates they wish to buy their numbers for.
As an example, if a customer selects 10 days on the “Days to Run” tab, and we follow the previous example of 2 number sets on Step 1 (751, 752) and Step 2 ($2/ticket) the customer is buying 2x$2x10= $40 for 20 tickets that run on 10 separate days.
Step 4 – Drawings
Here customers can select the lotteries they wish to buy these tickets for. We offer over 140 lotteries for all major states and times.
As an example, on step 4 a customer might select 2 lotteries for CA Evening 6:30PM and TX Night 10:12PM. Following the previous example of Step 1 with 2 number sets (751, 752), Step 2 with $2 per ticket, Step 3 with 10 days and step 4 with 2 lotteries, the customer is buying 2x$2x10x2=$80 for 40 lottery tickets that run on 10 separate days and are graded based on two lottery drawings.
Step 5 – Confirm
Here customers can see the information selected from the previous steps and confirm their bet.
- All bets are final: No modifications or cancellations are allowed on lottery bets.
- No Post-Draw Bets: If a bet for a morning contest is placed in the afternoon of the same day, the contest will automatically be moved to the next date. A warning pop up will appear to inform the customer of the change as they reach Step 5. Any system error that results in bets being placed after the drawing date and time will result in the bets being void and cancelled.
- Cancelled drawings: Any bets placed on a date where a drawing is cancelled will result in that bet being moved over to the next available date. Cancelled drawings are based on official lottery announcements.
- Winnings are paid out based on the official rule set placed on this page, under the title “Payout” any discrepancy between actual payout and the payouts listed here will result in payouts being adjusted to the correct rates listed on this page.
- Bets are graded based on official lottery results. We make every effort to grade bets in a timely manner, generally within less than 10 minutes of the drawing time. Under rare circumstances, we might need to verify official results, which can result in up to one business day of delay in grading.
- Bet grading is based on official lottery results. In the event of official lottery results being incorrectly displayed initially, bets will be re-graded based on official communication. All grading is based on official lottery results only and DSI Lotto will follow the official communications to issue payouts to customers. Bet DSI cannot be held responsible for incorrectly graded bets, only official lottery results determine bet grading.
