Florida Administrative Code › 53 - DEPARTMENT OF THE LOTTERY › 53 - Departmental › Chapter 53ER23 - EMERGENCY RULE FOR YEAR 2023 › Section 53ER23-45 - CASH POP[TM]

Current through Reg. 50, No. 138; July 16, 2024
(1) How to Play
				CASH POP[TM].
(a) CASH POP is a Draw lottery
				game (also known as an online terminal game) in which a player selects one
				number from 1 through 15, inclusive, for a chance to win a cash prize. The
				selection of a single number is one (1) "play."
(b) Players may choose play amounts of $1.00,
				$2.00, $5.00, or $10.00 per play. The play amount will determine the possible
				cash prize generated by the system. The prize structure and odds are set forth
				in subsection (2), below.
(c) For
				purposes of this rule, a "playslip" is defined as an original paper playslip
				issued and approved by the Florida Lottery for the CASH POP game or a digital
				playslip for the CASH POP game generated using the Florida Lottery Mobile
				Convenience App ("App"). Except where necessary to differentiate between a
				paper playslip and a digital playslip, the term "playslip" shall be inclusive
				of both types of playslips.
(d)
				Players may make their CASH POP ticket selections by: using a playslip; using a
				Florida Lottery vending machine ("vending machine'), if a vending machine for
				Draw game ticket purchases is available at the retailer location; telling the
				retailer their desired selections; or by requesting the Play it Again
				feature.
(e) Playslip.
1. Paper Playslips.
a. A CASH POP paper playslip contains five
				(5) panels. The manner of play described in this section is for a single panel;
				each of the five panels is played in the same manner. Each panel has three (3)
				sections.
The first section lists numbers one (1) to fifteen (15). On a
				  playslip, players must mark at least one number to play. A player may mark
				  additional numbers, up to fifteen (15) for additional plays. A player may mark
				  the "Play All" spot to play all fifteen numbers. All numbers chosen are played
				  in the next available drawing. A player may also mark Quick Pick (QP) for the
				  terminal to randomly select one number. A player will mark his/her desired
				  choice/s using blue or black ink or a pencil.
In the second section of a panel on a playslip, a player will
				  mark the dollar amount he/she wishes to play. The possible play amounts are
				  $1.00, $2.00, $5.00, or $10.00. Only one (1) play amount can be chosen per
				  panel on a playslip, and the play amount chosen will be applied to each number
				  played in that panel. If a player does not mark a dollar amount, the default
				  will be $1.00.
In the third section of a panel on the playslip, a player may
				  select the number of consecutive drawings he/she wishes to play. (Consecutive
				  drawings are also known as advance play.) The number of consecutive drawing
				  choices are one (1), two (2), three (3), four (4), five (5), or ten (10). The
				  count for the number of consecutive drawings includes the next available
				  drawing for which a ticket is purchased. For example, choosing four (4)
				  consecutive drawings will give the player a total of four (4) drawings, the
				  next available drawing plus the next three (3) drawings for a total of four
				  (4). If a player chooses one (1) consecutive drawing, only the next available
				  drawing is played, and the player will have no additional drawings played. The
				  number/s played and play amount will be the same for each consecutive drawing.
				  Only one (1) value for the number of consecutive drawings can be chosen on a
				  panel. If no number of consecutive drawings is chosen, the play is for the next
				  available drawing only.
b. A
				separate ticket will be produced for each panel and for each drawing and will
				display all numbers chosen on the panel. A system-generated prize amount will
				print immediately beneath each number played. For each consecutive drawing, if
				any, a separate ticket will print, and the prize amount/s may differ for the
				number/s played. The prize amount/s in a subsequent drawing are not
				determinative or dependent on the prize amount/s of a previous
				drawing.
c. Players should
				carefully check their playslip for accuracy in their desired selections since
				CASH POP tickets cannot be canceled. If an error is made in a panel, the player
				will mark the Void box. Marking the Void box will apply to all choices made in
				a panel.
d. The total cost to play
				one (1) panel on a ticket is equal to the number of number/s played times the
				play amount times the number of consecutive draws.
e. The odds of winning a given prize are
				listed in subsection (2), below.
f.
				Each of the five (5) panels are played in the manner described above. One or
				more panels, up to five, may be played on a playslip. A ticket will be produced
				for each panel played and for each drawing played.
g. Paper playslips must be Florida Lottery
				approved. Paper playslips may be processed through a Florida Lottery
				full-service vending machine or processed by a Florida Lottery retailer to
				obtain a ticket.
2.
				Digital Playslip. How to Create a Digital Playslip. From the Landing Page on
				the App, a player should select the CASH POP game icon and then click on "Pick
				Numbers." The player may either select his or her numbers from one (1) through
				(15) or use the "Random Numbers" or "Shake to Play" feature for the App to
				provide the player a random number. A player must also select the play amount
				($1.00, $2.00, $5.00, or $10.00), which will apply to all numbers played, and,
				if more than the default of one drawing is desired, select the number of
				consecutive drawings. Players may also use the "My Favorites" feature to save
				the digital playslip for later use. Once a digital playslip is created and the
				player clicks "Create Playslip, " a barcode will be displayed. The player may
				present the barcode appearing on his/her mobile device to the retailer to
				purchase a ticket through the retailer terminal or may use the barcode to
				purchase a ticket through a vending machine that provides for Draw game
				purchases. Illustrative instructions for creating a CASH POP digital playslip
				are available by clicking on the "How to Play" button on the main CASH POP
				page.
(f) Vending
				Machine. If a vending machine is available at a retailer location and if the
				vending machine has the options set forth herein, the vending machine may be
				used by a player to make Quick Pick (QP) selections; manual selections; and
				process both paper and digital CASH POP playslips.
(g) Telling the Retailer. Retailers are
				authorized to manually enter player choices. Players electing to make their
				CASH POP ticket selections by telling the retailer must specify the number/s
				desired to be played, the play amount, and the consecutive number of drawings.
				A player may also tell the retailer to use the Quick Pick feature for the
				terminal to randomly select one or more numbers (1 through 15). If Quick Pick
				is chosen by a player, a player must also tell the retailer the play amount and
				the number of consecutive drawings desired.
(h) Play it Again.
1. A player may request to "Play it Again" to
				replay a previously purchased CASH POP ticket. If requested, a retailer shall
				process the original ticket provided by the player and print new ticket/s which
				will have the same selected number/s, play amount, and number of consecutive
				drawings as the original ticket, except as provided in subparagraph (1)(h)2.,
				below. New possible prize amount/s will be generated.
2. In the event of a Lottery decision to step
				down the CASH POP game, an original ticket will be rejected and cannot be
				replayed if the number of drawings on the ticket exceeds the number of drawings
				that are available at the time of requested ticket replay. Tickets older than
				sixty (60) days cannot be replayed.
