FAQ

What is lotto syndicate?

A syndicate is a great way to increase your chances of winning without spending a huge amount of money. They allow you to pool your money with other players to buy larger quantities of tickets, increasing your chances of winning a prize.

How does lotto syndicate work?

When you enter into a syndicate, you buy a share, and all other syndicate players do the same. All the money is combined to purchase large quantities of lottery tickets, increasing your chances of winning a prize. The number of shares in a syndicate is fixed at the outset. You can buy as many shares for a syndicate as you like, until they're sold out. The more shares you have, the more money you’ll collect if the syndicate wins a prize. You won’t have potential arguments as to who paid to be in the syndicate and difficulties collecting money from the ticket holder like you can possibly get with “office syndicates”. Every syndicate member gets paid their full entitlement by us after a winning draw.
