White Label accounts can run prize draws that people enter with the tokens they earn.

Who can use this

Create it

  1. Choose Create, then Lottery, or New lottery on the Lotteries page.

  2. Prizes: add a tier for each prize with its name, its type (Digital, Physical or Cash) and how many winners it has. Prizes are drawn top to bottom and a person wins once, so put the biggest first. A digital prize takes one code per winner.

  3. Name and picture: the language you write in, a name, a description and a cover image. Add other languages if you need them.

  4. Tickets: the Entry cost in tokens, and Max entries per participant, from 1 to 100.

  5. Dates: Starts at and Ends at. The draw runs on its own at the end time.

  6. Who can join: pick the platform, and under Countries choose Global or Selected countries. The lottery shows only on the platform you pick.

  7. Choose Draft or By schedule, then Create Lottery.
