The short answer for Arkansas
- What we found in the law and the lottery's own guidance
- We found no Arkansas statute that forbids friends or coworkers from pooling money for tickets. The Arkansas Scholarship Lottery's claim form has a 'GROUP' claimant box. The pool agreement names who claims. The Arkansas Scholarship Lottery takes multi-winner claims at its Little Rock claim center, with at most two people per claim unless an appointment is made.From our Arkansas page, reviewed Oct 5, 2026

Rules change. The official lottery and the state are the authority; check them before you play or claim.
Facts, not advice: we read each one on the official page linked beside it. Pool creation is open wherever a lottery runs, except Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (not open yet). The five states without a lottery stay closed. Responsible play
