The new DV Lottery registration comes with a $1 fee. But be prepared — you might see a slightly higher charge on your account. Why? Because while the U.S. government charges exactly $1, your bank, card provider, or even M-Pesa Visa may add extra costs like currency conversion or international transaction fees. So don’t panic if you see more than $1 deducted. That’s just your provider’s charges, not the DV system. The official fee remains $1 only. Follow this page for more DV Lottery tips. #dvlot
