Miscellanous FAQ
How many people are employed by the
lottery? Are they able to play the lottery?
There are 117 lottery employees. Many of the employees are in sales and they call on the
lottery's 2,600 retailers statewide. Lottery employees cannot play or win prizes on any
Iowa Lottery product.
Who comes up with the ideas for new
lottery games?
The Iowa Lottery uses a number of sources for new games including players, retailers and
staff. The Iowa Lottery also closely monitors games put out by other lotteries around the
country. An ad agency is contracted to help write and produce television and radio spots,
but most of the game development is done internally.
Who makes the rules on how much
money a player wins for picking two, three, four or five numbers correctly?
The Iowa Lottery sets the prize structure for Iowa's $100,000 Cash Game, Pick 3 and
Pick 4. With Powerball and Hot Lotto, the prize structure is set by the Multi-State Lottery
Association (MUSL) since multiple states participate in the game.
