First draw to take place on 18 April 2020
The region’s first, fatwa-approved, fully digital collectable scheme with optional entry to a weekly live draw will shortly go operational.
Emirates Loto will change lives, of both winners and the general public, with its aim to donate millions of dirhams for the public good in line with UAE government initiatives to give back to the community and the country as a whole, a recent company press communiqué revealed.
Emirates Loto is a collectables scheme with a live weekly draw and is open to all eligible people over 18 years old in the UAE and across the globe. The collectables may be purchased online and through the app, or in thousands of retail stores in the country for just AED 35 (US$ 9.5).
“We are excited to be launching the region’s first fatwa-approved digital collectable scheme and draw,” remarked Paul Sebestyen, Chief Executive Officer.
Once the collectable is purchased, the buyer can, if they so choose, opt into a free live draw for a chance to win from AED 35mn (US$ 9.53mn) to AED 50 mn (US$ 13.61mn) in jackpot prizes every week.
If the purchaser does choose to opt-in to the draw, they will, using the Emirates Loto website or App, select six numbers from one to forty-nine. If three, four, five, or six of the numbers that have been selected for the draw match the six numbers randomly drawn by the Emirates Loto ball machine that week, they win a prize, the press release explained..
The first draw will take place on 18 April 2020 and will be streamed live across multiple digital platforms at 7:30PM Dubai time, the press note concluded.
