Described are methods, computer readable media and systems for processing losing lottery entries for benefits. In an embodiment, the process includes receiving a redemption request for a lottery ticket associated with a lottery game, determining that the lottery ticket includes at least one valid losing lottery entry, and determining a discount amount to offer. The discount amount may be based on at least one eligibility factor, and once determined, the discount amount may then be offered to a customer.
