Lottery tickets policy

eBay does not allow the sale of lottery tickets.

Policy overview

Why does eBay have this policy?

eBay urges its sellers and buyers to comply with all governmental laws and regulations. Since lotteries are highly regulated or may cause harm to eBay or its members, sellers may not list them on eBay.

Activity on eBay is required to follow this policy, the eBay User Agreement and all applicable laws, as well as respect the rights of third parties. If it doesn’t, eBay may take action consistent with applicable laws and the eBay User Agreement, and may even be legally required to do so. Such actions may include, as an example only: Removing the listing or other content, issuing a warning, restricting activity or account suspension.
