Rams Lotto Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 Interesting to see the feedback here - we thought we'd try to answer some of your questions around the launch. Arsenal are signed up as well, they have monthly draws for free tickets, merchandise and training ground visits, how come this isn't on offer for Derby fans?https://www.arsenallotto.co.uk/app/how_it_works.htm Arsenal have been partnered with Lotto Network since September 2012. Plans for a similar monthly prize draw for Rams Lotto are underway and Derby fans will be able to win a selection of prizes - in much the same way as offered on the Arsenal Lotto - on a monthly basis in the near future. Make me wonder how many of you have actually visited the website before slagging the idea off!!! you are actually playing the German national Lottery. Plus money goes to the club and helps pay for the academy etc. It is another way to raise funds via the new FFP agreement. As I am a lazy linker, check out the FAQ's etc here https://www.ramslotto.com/app/faq.htm#tellMe erm did people not continue reading? only 26% of the £1.50 goes to the academy not "all the proceeds" as they claim in the paragraph before. So in reality only 39p for every ticket sold. seems to me like another way for the rich to become richer at the expense of others to me. Rsmini is correct - all the proceeds that the club receives from Rams Lotto go to the Academy, and will be spent on improving player training and youth development at the club - and nothing else. To put the 26% into context, the Health Lottery contributes 20% in every £1 to good causes. The National Lottery which - as has been pointed out - is raising its price of a Lotto line to £2 this autumn, contributes 28% to good causes, however from the total paid to good causes in the year to 31st March 2013, only 20% of this was to sporting-related projects. By partnering with Lotto Network, Rams Lotto can offer on average bigger jackpots than the National Lottery, the Health Lottery, and the People's Postcode Lottery combined. "when you purchase a 'ticket' for Rams Lotto you are placing a bet on the outcome of the German national lottery. This means you can expect on average jackpots of £7.5m with rollovers of up to £40m" how does that work then? Rams Lotto jackpots will correlate directly with the jackpots on the '6/49' German lottery on which the draw results are based. As Rams Lotto is powered by Lotto Network, Derby County pays none of the prize money. All prizes are paid in full by Lotto Network to fans in one lump sum, whether they match three numbers or hit the jackpot. do you have to pay UK tax on any winnings? No, absolutely not. Placing a lotto bet with Rams Lotto works in much the same way as placing a bet with a high street bookmaker - all winnings are tax-free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulpman Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Not had anything from the club about my membership of the Rams Club stopping or anything, Are they just going to not take my money anymore? Can understand the idea but let the RC members know what's happening! FFP is the sole reason for this and all the other sponsorship elements we now have at the club, it is the future of football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After this, its operation will cease - you'll receive a formal notification with more details in due course, and in plenty of time before this date.

Rams Lotto Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 No mention of the small prize for 3 numbers compared with the newer lottery 3 number prize. The new £25 prize pot for matching three numbers is a result of the Lotto line doubling in price from £1 to £2. Rams Lotto is not only cheaper to play, but directly benefits your club and also has significantly larger average jackpots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 £8 for 3 numbers is a bit pants to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rams Lotto Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 £8 for 3 numbers is a bit pants to be fair. The expected average price is £8, however in reality the prize awarded is higher. If you look at the recent results, the prize for matching 3 numbers, across all Lotto Network partners, has been consistently at £10 until the most recent draw. https://www.ramslotto.com/app/results.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulpman Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Do you reckon the club are having a go on this, you know if they win like nearly 8 barker type fees they could go out and buy 8 barker type players. Or are they not allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
