It has exclusive rights to distribute number draw games, sports bets and prize draw tickets throughout the entire territory of the country and - through its investments - it also has interests in four Hungarian casinos. It operates seven number draw games, such as five-number draw lottery, six-number draw lottery, Scandinavian Lotto, Joker, Keno, Luxor, and Puttó; three types of sports bets, including Toto Pools, Tippmix, and Goal Toto; and a portfolio of prize draw tickets.

However, expats, temporary residents, tourists can purchase lottery tickets in person at the betting shops, and even online, if they get a so called "játékoskártya" (player card), which they can use in leu of a Hungarian ID card. You can get the player card at the betting shops, in person (brief registration required, ID or passport and proof of address are needed). [2]
