German state Schleswig-Holstein’s step away from the other 15 member states’ view on internet gambling has meant that as of January 4, 2012 Schleswig-Holstein residents have been able to play the NorthWest Lotto over the internet.
A pre-requisite to participate in the online lottery system requires registration, age verification and residence in Schleswig-Holstein.
The online lotto is operated by North West of Schleswig-Holstein GmbH & Co KG.
