Abstract
A lottery ticket vending machine configured to obtain code image data (such as bar code image data) from a leading lottery ticket in each of the lottery drawers in the lottery ticket vending machine, and use the code image data for activating or verifying activation of the lottery tickets loaded in the ticket drawers. This expedites the ticket loading process by eliminating the need for an operator to manually and/or separately scan a code (such as a bar code) for each ticket pack loaded into the ticket drawers.
