For demonstration purposes, Brightstar Lottery may show example tax withholdings on prize payments above certain amounts. In this sample experience, a portion of larger prizes may be displayed as withheld to illustrate how federal or state taxes could be applied, and players may see a reference to a year‑end tax form (such as a W‑2G) that reflects these withholdings.

In some example scenarios, players who do not provide a valid tax identification number may see a higher sample withholding applied to prizes over a defined threshold. This is shown only to demonstrate how different player situations might impact tax handling within the product experience.

Please note that all tax rates, thresholds, and rules shown are fictional and for showcase purposes only. They do not represent real tax requirements or advice. Players should always consult a qualified tax professional or appropriate tax authority when dealing with actual lottery winnings.
