    (c) Players must register their contact information one time upon first usage. A player will be sent an email directing the player to confirm his or her registration. The player should check his or her junk mail or spam folder if the player does not promptly receive an email confirmation. Thereafter, the player may directly login by entering his or her email address and password or may login through the player’s Facebook or Twitter account. Upon initial registration, the player will be prompted to select his or her favorite college team. Thereafter, the player will be able to change the team selection from the menu to allow the player to enter tickets into another team drawing, if desired.

    (d) Regardless of whether a player chooses to participate in the Promotion by smartphone, tablet or web browser the following provisions shall apply:

    1. The player may use the same account login information to enter tickets;

    2. The player will only be required to register one time; and

    3. The player’s entry history will be cumulative among the entry platforms.

    (3) How to Earn Entries.

    To collect play symbols and earn entries into a drawing, a player may scan the barcode on the bottom of a   ticket using a camera on a smartphone or tablet, or a player may manually enter the 19-digit ticket number (located near the bottom of the ticket) on the entry page at flalottery.com/gamedaycash. Four game cards will appear on the screen. Each game card contains four spots to collect four symbols. Each FANTASY 5, FANTASY 5 with EZmatch, FLORIDA LOTTO or FLORIDA LOTTO with XTRA ticket number entered will randomly generate a quantity (2, 4, 6, 8, or 10) of the four play symbols and place them in an available game card. Each CORNHOLE CASH ticket number entered will randomly generate a quantity (6, 8, or 10) of the four play symbols and place them in an available game card. Once a symbol has been collected on all four play cards, the symbol will be eliminated from the random selection process. When a single game card is filled up with all four different symbols, an entry is generated into one or more drawings in accordance with subsection (5) and the game card will reset to capture more symbols towards the next entry. Partially completed cards will carry over to the next entry period.  A player may earn multiple entries during the contest period; however, a player may only manually enter or scan up to two hundred tickets per day. Each ticket number can only be scanned or entered one time, for one entry into one or more drawings in accordance with subsection (5). Entries that include training tickets that were produced by a retailer terminal while in training mode or tickets with invalid ticket numbers will be disqualified from the applicable drawing or drawings. The odds of winning depend on the number of entries in each drawing. All entries are subject to validation by the Florida Lottery and may be disqualified if eligibility requirements are not met. Entries associated with a canceled ticket(s) will be ineligible to win a prize in a drawing(s). CORNHOLE CASH and FANTASY 5 with EZmatch tickets cannot be canceled. Qualifying game tickets should not be mailed to the Lottery for entry into the Promotion. Such tickets received in the mail by the Florida Lottery will not be entered into the Promotion and will not be returned.

    (4) Coupons.

    During the Promotion Period, coupons will be generated for every “nth” ticket scanned or entered statewide up to a maximum of 44,000 coupons. When an nth ticket is generated, it will activate a bonus game in which the player can “skip” or choose to play and “kick a field goal.”  Regardless of whether or not the player plays the bonus game, a message will appear on the player’s coupons page and notify the player that a coupon has been added to the player’s account. To redeem, the player must print the coupon and present it to any Florida Lottery retailer or a Florida Lottery office. Coupons may not be redeemed by mail.  Coupons are valid for one use only and expire at midnight ET on December 31, 2017. The odds of winning a coupon depend on the number of tickets entered per day. The coupons offered are as follows:

    (a) $25 Cash Prize;

    (b) Get a free $1 FLORIDA LOTTO® Quick Pick ticket;

    (c) Buy a $1 FANTASY 5® ticket; get a free $1 FLORIDA LOTTO® Quick Pick ticket;
