Q

What is a subscription to a lottery?

A

With a subscription you will play every consecutive draw of your favourite lottery until you cancel it. When you play with a subscription, you receive a minimum of every 7th lottery ticket FREE; you will be able to change your numbers at any time; and you will pay for your participation in the draws as you go! You can pause/reactivate your Subscription by selecting Active/Not Active from the drop down menu in the Status row at Subscriptions at any time.

Q

How do I subscribe?

A

To subscribe to a lottery online, select the lottery of your choice and choose to subscribe by checking the subscribe option beneath the numbers field.

Q

How do I change my subscription numbers?

A

To change your subscription’s numbers, please go to the Play form of the specific lottery in question, select your new favourite numbers, and click the floppy disk icon on the right side of the My Lucky Numbers button to save them.

Make sure you're using Lucky Numbers for your subscription by following these steps: Go to My Account, click on Subscriptions, go to the subscription you wish to use Lucky Numbers for, and make sure that "From Lucky Numbers" is selected in the dropdown box. Click the Save button underneath if you made any changes.

Please note: Subscription tickets are purchased as soon as a draw opens, therefore any changes to your numbers will only take effect the next draw.

Q

How do I play a subscription when paying with Skrill?

A

When paying with Skrill, please make sure that you have deposited sufficient funds in your account on the site in order to cover the cost of your desired participation. If you do not have sufficient funds, your ticket will not participate in the draw.
