You will not own any Ticket purchased for the Syndicate. All Lottery Tickets purchased are owned solely by us. Any Syndicate Shares not purchased by Members shall be owned by us. We will maintain a record of Members with active membership against every draw. This will calculate the Winnings and distribute them accordingly to each Member.

We reserve the right without prior notice or liability, to provide any other type of alternative legally licensed lottery draw, in addition to or other than those specifically referred to in these terms and conditions or on the Site.

If so they will hold one “share“ for each time they subscribe to the Syndicate.
      3. Your share of any Winnings or Prizes earned by or payable to a Syndicate will depend on the number of shares you hold in it. We may determine that Syndicates may involve different numbers of Members. ie: if a Syndicate has 50 Members and you hold one share, you will be entitled to 1/50 of any Winnings payable to/received by the Syndicate.

    2. Any applicable taxes, duties or levies on your Winnings shall be paid by you. You are primarily responsible for correct payment of taxes, duties and levies on Winnings. However, there may be circumstances where the payment of such taxes are to be withheld from Winnings under local legislation or the onus falls to the operating company paying the winnings to the Player to collect such taxes. In those and any analogous circumstances you hereby authorise us and/or our agents to deduct such taxes or levies from your Winnings before payment of the Winnings to you, your Account or any other nominated account.
    3. You may withdraw any funds from your Account (i.e. including Winnings) via your chosen payment method. You should note that you will not be entitled to choose a different payment method to collect winnings to that which you paid for your Order unless for good reason (i.e. that funds cannot be returned to the particular payment method) and only when specifically authorised by us; this is likely to be subject to enhanced due diligence processes to prevent possible money laundering.
    4. We may require up to date KYC information before any withdrawal generally.
    5. You may withdraw a minimum of £25 per action up to a maximum of £2000 daily on your account. Bearing that you have available funds this process can be replicated as many times as deemed necessary (up to the daily cap) to extract the relevant winnings from your account to your credit or debit card. If you feel you are experiencing issues related to this you may contact customer support or email [email protected] for further enquiries.
    6. For all winning tickets purchased indirectly through our local representatives and third-party service providers:
      1. All winnings are payable in the currency of the lottery related to your Winning Ticket. We will convert small Winnings into the currency that you use to place your Order as a matter of course. However, for large Winnings, we will pay you in the currency of the lottery related to your Order. Please see section 15: Specific Lottery Operator Payout Rules and Limits for more details. If we convert the currency to make a payment to you in the currency that you used to place your Order, we will do so at your expense and charge you at the rate at which we are charged for the FX transfer plus a 2.5% administration fee.
      2. Large Winnings over £10,000:
        1. You may be obliged to claim or receive your Winnings in the country in which the Lottery that you have won is domiciled by presenting a winning ticket personally (in the case where we have purchased a ticket locally to meet our liability to you). So a prize for an American Lottery product may have to be collected in the USA and so on.
        2. In any given situation where you have to travel to collect your prize, we will make arrangements for you to ensure minimum hassle.
        3. We may, at our entire discretion, pay Winnings into a bank account opened by either you or us in the country in which the Lottery that you have won is domiciled in your name.
