We've been super quiet about this and are not really ready to ship yet (bunch of bugs) but decided to let you guys give it a try since the Mega Millions is so big.
If you're on iOS you can use the code "money" to try it
I'm getting "Location must be enabled to use JackPocket" here in VA on my S3 running ICS. Looks like it's attempting to get a GPS lock and timing out before it gets one. Any reason you all need fine location data and coarse won't cut it?
Cool idea though- I'll definitely give it a shot if it starts working!
Totally should have mentioned this earlier. For now we're only going to be supporting NY lotteries, that's where our tickets are bought. In order to comply with current lottery rules, you have to be physically in the state of the lottery you're playing. We use GPS fencing to accomplish this.

Yes for right now we're only in NY. Would love to open it up in New Hampshire someday.
Good luck with the business Pete. Had no idea you were on HN!
