How buying a ticket works
Five steps, two ticket types and one rule that catches people out: the 50/50 ticket never travels alone.
Step by step
The pairing
Why the 50/50 ticket cannot be bought on its own
The Foundation holds two licences. The main lottery licence covers the vehicle and the Early Bird cash draws. The 50/50 licence covers the electronic raffle whose prize is half of what the 50/50 tickets bring in. Rule 14 of the Rules of Play ties them together: a 50/50 ticket exists only as an addition to a Win4Cancer main ticket, on every order, without exception. The raffle system enforces it at checkout, so there is no way to end up holding one without the other.

After the draw
What happens once the number comes out
The draws run inside the raffle system's certified random number generator, in front of Foundation representatives at . There is no ceremony to attend and nothing on this website takes part in it.
A Foundation representative telephones or emails the winner using the details recorded with the ticket and explains how to claim. The winning ticket number, the winner's name and their city go on the Winners page and on the Foundation's social channels, as the Rules of Play require.
Keeping track
An account is optional and does not sell you anything
You can buy without one. What an account gives you is somewhere to keep the numbers from your confirmation emails and printed tickets, a reminder before each cut-off, and a set of tools for holding yourself to a budget. Nothing in it takes a payment.
