Montana Millionaire ticket-sales system outage
Montana Lottery · Bozeman, Montana, United States
Summary
Montana Lottery postponed Montana Millionaire ticket sales November 1, 2026, after its new Bally's Intralot central gaming system experienced transaction-volume performance problems, overly frequent instant-win awards and website/mobile information-feed faults. Sales had opened at 5:30 a.m.; postponement was announced around 11 a.m. The lottery said purchased tickets remained valid and approximately $500,000 in excess instant-win prizes would be added back to remaining tickets. A new sales date awaited technical fixes and validation of game and sales data; full restoration was not confirmed.
