The invention relates to a system for influencing the course of payment during a transaction. The system comprises a point-of-sale terminal, arranged to provide an amount that has to be paid for the transaction; a lottery terminal, comprising a processing device, a first operating device for operation by a customer, and a first display device for reading by the customer; and a lottery server, operatively connected with the lottery terminal. The lottery terminal is arranged to receive an order for purchase of a lottery ticket, transmit a lottery participation inquiry to the lottery server, receive a lottery participation result from the lottery server, and if the lottery participation result indicates a prize, display a notification concerning the prize on the first display device. The lottery server is arranged to receive a lottery participation inquiry from the lottery terminal, provide a lottery participation result on the basis of the lottery participation inquiry, and transmit the lottery participation result to the lottery terminal. The point- of-sale terminal is arranged to cause the amount that has to be paid for the transaction to be reduced, cancelled or credited if the lottery participation result indicates a prize.
