VETERANS’ LOTTERY RULES OF PLAY
Please read these rules which relate to your participation in our monthly subscription Veterans’
Lottery Draw (“Rules of Play”) carefully. They supplement our Lottery Terms and Conditions.
1.
LOTTERY CHARGE
Entry into each monthly draw costs £10.
The annual charge is therefore £120.
2.
PRIZES AND OTHER BENEFITS
The Lottery
2.1.1
Participating in the Veterans’ Lottery means you are in with a chance of
winning:
1st prize
2nd prize
3rd prize
2.2
-
£5,000 and a chance to win the Rollover
£2,000
10 x £100
The Rollover
2.2.1
The rollover is a sum of money potentially available to the 1st prize winner. It
accumulates each month that it isn’t won, so the value of the rollover can
vary considerably.
2.2.2
Each month, 3% of the ticket sales for that month’s draw are added to the
rollover. If the rollover was won in the last Veterans’ Lottery draw, the
rollover will be limited to 3% of the ticket sales for that month’s draw. If the
rollover hasn’t been won for 5 months, the rollover will be an accumulation of
the rollovers for those 5 months.
2.2.3
The maximum number of ticket sales for each month’s Veterans’ Lottery draw
is 83,330 and so the value added to the rollover each month will not exceed
£24,999.
2.2.4
We are required by law to cap the value of the rollover at £75,330. Should
the rollover reach this level, the excess shall be placed in a separate fund
which shall only be added to the rollover after it is next won.
2.3
FOR DETAILS ON HOW THE LOTTERY PRIZES ARE ALLOCATED, AND HOW
TO WIN THE ROLLOVER PLEASE SEE SECTION 4 (“WINNING”).
2.4

2.4.3
Gourmet Society membership will only run for as long as your Veterans’
Lottery membership. Should you cancel your Veterans’ Lottery membership

3.
2.4.4
We may from time to time change these benefits, but we will aim to ensure
that the value of these benefits is not materially reduced.

If you are not happy with a change, please note that you can cancel your
membership on 30 days’ notice.
HOW TO PLAY
Playing our monthly Veterans’ Lottery Draw is incredibly easy.
3.1
To start playing, please register. Registration is a simple process, done via our site.
Accessed at www.veteransfoundation.org.uk (“Our Site”).
3.2
Once we have accepted your registration and set up your account and payment
method in accordance with our Veterans’ Lottery Terms and Conditions, we will allot
you a unique 5 digit number (“Your Lottery Number”). You do not need to choose
your number. You will also be allotted a number for the rollover between 1 and 3
(“Rollover Number”).
3.3
The Veterans’ Lottery is drawn once every month, on the last day of each calendar
month (“Draw Date”).
3.4
In order to participate in a particular Veterans’ Lottery draw, we must receive your
payment in clear funds at least 24 hours before the relevant draw takes place. If you
are paying by:
3.4.1 direct debit, please note that it takes up to 10 days for a direct debit to be set
up from the date the request is presented to your bank, and so a direct debit would
need to be presented to your bank at least 10 days before the draw; or
3.4.2 cheque, please note that it takes 6 days for a cheque to clear, and so a
cheque would need to be provided to us at least 7 days before the draw.
3.5
Subject to paragraph 3.4 above, we will enter your lottery numbers into the next
available Veterans’ Lottery draw and each subsequent Veterans’ Lottery draw.
4.
WINNING
4.1
On the draw date, one of our random number generators will draw at random:
(i)
a 5 digit number (taken only from lottery numbers that we have allocated) for
each of 1st, 2nd and 10 x 3rd prizes. This means that there will always be a
winner of each prize; and
(ii)
a sixth number between 1 and 3 for the rollover draw.
4.2
If you win 1st prize and the sixth number matches your rollover Number, you will win
the rollover too.
4.3
You can check the results of each Veterans’ Lottery draw on our site. However, to
make things simple for you, we already know if you are a winner and we will contact
you to let you know and will pay any such winnings directly to you automatically.
