As a reminder, the receipt lottery is an initiative introduced by the Italian government a few years ago with the aim of encouraging the use of credit cards, debit cards, and prepaid cards.

Rules that will be changed in 2023: a two-dimensional QR code will be printed on commercial documents (fiscal receipts), and customers will have the possibility to immediately find out who won. That is a novelty if we compare it with the previous rules. Certainly, this will affect RT printers and RT servers—the main fiscal documents in Italy—because, before October, they need to adapt in accordance with the new rules and be able to produce a two-dimensional code for the lottery. More precisely, the Revenue Agency specifies that the updates of the device models must be carried out by October 2, 2023, in order to generate the two-dimensional code to be reported in the commercial document, valid for participation in the instant lottery. Once again, the QR code, whose characteristics are established in the technical specifications, will be issued on the receipt that is issued following the purchase and can be used to quickly verify the winning tickets.
