Trade Promotions

Trade Promotion Lottery

A trade promotion lottery in general terms is a promotion activity that involves a lottery with prize winners determined by any means that includes an element of chance or a mixture of chance and skill.

A prize includes anything of value or benefit.

A Trade Promotion Lottery is a promotional activity used as an incentive to encourage people to do something, such as purchase a product or participate in an event.

A feature that distinguishes a trade promotion lottery from other lotteries is that a trade promotion lottery is free to enter except in the case of Football Tipping Competitions, where the majority of the fee to enter must contributed to the prize pool.

Generally, a lottery conducted or advertised in the ACT must seek approval before the lottery is conducted. It should be noted that the specific provisions of the Lotteries Act 1964 Lotteries Act will ultimately determine the eligibility or otherwise of any lottery application.

Fees

Payment must accompany your application and may be made by cash, visa or mastercard, cheque or money order.
