- Player Testimonials:
Just a brief note to say how much I enjoy playing BoxLotto. Your lottery site is one of the most user-friendly on the Internet. ... I like how you use the NY lottery numbers to ensure fairness. Also, your cash prizes are more generous than many other sites. Keep up the good work. I intend to be a regular player.

I loved receiving my winnings today and being able to say nah nah nah to all those friends who didn't believe I would ever win anything. Hopefully I will win bigger next time. Thanks again.
