(Hamburg, 13 April 2021) The LOTTO24 app is now also available in the Google Play Store for Android! The Tipp24 app will follow shortly. After Google has so far not allowed gambling offers to the Google Play Store in Germany, the company now performs an important turnaround: With effect from 1 March 2021, Google amended its access guidelines and allowed specific gambling products, in particular apps for participation in permitted lotteries. The LOTTO24 app is thus the first and only nationwide playable lottery app after the corresponding opening of the Google Play Store. With a market share of around 74%, the Android operating system is the largest in Germany and automatically includes access to the Google Play Store, which offers around three million apps.
“We are delighted that our customers can now finally access our app via the Google Play Store – especially since a large proportion of both our new and existing customers reach us via mobile devices,” says Jonas Mattsson, CFO of LOTTO24 AG. “We hope that the approval in the Google Play Store will support the growing share of mobile use and further accelerate our growth.”
