The launch of the app follows on from Google’s decision to modify some of its access guidelines and allow downloadable gambling apps in more areas across the globe.
At the moment, Sweden is the most active market when it comes to Android downloads as it averages about five downloads per user each month. All players who download this app will be able to bet on the end results of draws, check out the most recent results and in the case of a winning bet, they can win money and even possibly become a millionaire!

We know that a large portion of Lottoland users find and communicate with us via mobile devices and we can’t wait to see how these new audiences in Sweden and Australia get on.”
