Jan 27, 2009
BEND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Until recently, lottery players have had to resort to the morning paper,
websites or a newscast to check the winning Powerball and other “draw
game” numbers. Now, using a free and innovative approach, players can
have the winning numbers automatically sent via text message to their
mobile phone after each drawing.
Using text message technology from RocketBux, Montana Lottery has
brought this new element to playing. Players can sign up by texting the
word “win” to the number 20123. “Every player obviously wants to know the results of the draw as soon as
possible,” says Fred Boos, President of RocketBux. “We provide a fast
and easy way to get the lottery numbers.” “We continually strive to provide more fun and excitement to our games
while giving our players the information they need,” says Jeri Duran,
Montana Lottery’s Director of Sales and Marketing. Terms of the agreement were not announced. In addition to the Montana
Lottery, RocketBux provides mobile solutions for many retailers,
resorts, technology companies, mileage programs and card issuers. About Montana Lottery The Montana Lottery was created by referendum in 1986. In the past 22
