Oakland County Player Wins $1.25 Million Lotto 47 Jackpot Online
An online Lotto 47 ticket bought through MichiganLottery.com matched all six numbers in the Sept. 9 drawing, producing a $1.25 million jackpot for a player from Oakland County.
A 73-year-old player from Oakland County won a $1.25 million Lotto 47 jackpot in the Michigan Lottery’s Sept. 9, 2026, drawing, after purchasing the winning ticket online through MichiganLottery.com.
The ticket matched all six numbers drawn for the game: 02, 12, 20, 30, 31 and 42. Matching the complete six-number combination secured the $1.25 million jackpot for the Oakland County player.
The winning entry was not purchased at a physical lottery retailer. The player bought it online through MichiganLottery.com, linking the Lotto 47 ticket to an online account.
The player discovered the win while checking that account before going to bed. The account review showed that the online ticket had matched the six numbers from the Sept. 9 drawing.
The discovery did not immediately settle the matter for the player and his wife. They checked the account again because they initially thought the prize notification might be a scam.
After confirming the win, the player claimed the prize at Michigan Lottery headquarters. The jackpot was worth $1.25 million, but the player selected a lump-sum payment of approximately $866,000 rather than receiving the prize through the alternative payment structure.
The online purchase, account notification and later prize claim connect the full sequence of the win: an Oakland County player bought a Lotto 47 ticket digitally, found the result in his account and then claimed the jackpot after verifying the notification.
The winning numbers were 02, 12, 20, 30, 31 and 42 for the Sept. 9 drawing. Readers looking for current information about the game can check the latest Michigan Lotto 47 results page.
