“Where does the money go?” We get asked that a lot, and our answer is simple. Each year, 100% of ourprofit stays here to benefit our Atlantic communities. All of it. Every penny.
In 2024-2025, we returned $498.7 million to our provincial government shareholders:
We also awarded $461.2 million in prizes back to our players and $120.7 million in commissions to our almost 4,000 retailers. Plus, we employ more than 700 Atlantic Canadians and our operations in Atlantic Canada contribute to more than 7,600 jobs and almost $2 billion in economic activity.
Did you know? Since opening in 1976, Atlantic Lottery has provided $12.8 billion in profits to the four Atlantic Provinces.
