Rules
Post the rules your counsel approves
Use the drawing date, location, terms, and entrant-facing disclosures that the reviewed jurisdiction and operating mode require.
Trust is designed into the records
Related facts. Separate decisions.
Simply Raffles records explicit operational states after review. It does not decide whether your organization may run a raffle, which jurisdiction or operating mode is available, what disclosures apply, or which permits and tax rules apply.
Keep each operational fact distinct.
A recorded state documents work; it does not decide whether the activity is permitted.
Entry methods
Show only reviewed entry paths
The product can distinguish purchased, alternate, and complimentary entries. Support must confirm which paths are permitted before any public path is enabled.
Payments
Require real payment evidence
A submitted purchase request remains pending until configured checkout or trusted staff evidence qualifies it.
Eligibility
Draw only from the eligible view
Pending and reversed records stay out of the drawing picker while remaining available for operational review.
Corrections
Reverse; do not erase
Keep the original entry, the reversal reason, and the corrected replacement as distinct evidence.
Results
Record the winning entry
Link each prize to its winner so notifications and later questions start from the same result.
Confirm the rules with qualified advisers.
Before launch, your organization must confirm applicable requirements for its intended mode and jurisdiction.
- Confirm that the organization and raffle are eligible
- Approve the official rules and entrant disclosures
- Confirm which entry and payment paths the reviewed mode permits
- Document the drawing method and authorized operators
- Retain the records required by your policy and jurisdiction
