Step 1: Discover and Secure Your Chance to Win

Explore and Secure Your Winning Opportunity: Immerse yourself in our dynamic online showcase, featuring an array of prizes. As you navigate through the selections, easily secure your raffle tickets directly through our website. This streamlined process offers a fun and straightforward way to participate, enhancing your chances to win exceptional prizes.

 

Step 2: Digital to Physical Ticket Matching

Ensuring Every Online Entry Has a Physical Counterpart: For each raffle ticket you purchase online, our system automatically allocates a corresponding physical ticket. This step is crucial in bridging the gap between the digital and physical realms, ensuring that every online ticket you buy is represented by a physical ticket. This process upholds the integrity and fairness of the raffle, giving online participants equal standing in the event.

 

Step 3: Manual Ticket Processing and Placement

Diligent Preparation for the Raffle Draw: After matching your online tickets with physical ones, a member of our team carefully handles the next crucial phase. Each physical ticket, mirroring your online purchase, is manually torn and placed into the correct raffle basket. This careful process ensures that your tickets are physically present and mixed in with those purchased on-site, maintaining the essence of fairness and chance in the raffle draw.

 

Step 4: The Official Raffle Draw

Drawing Winners in a Fair and Transparent Manner: On drawing night, the much-awaited raffle draw takes place. A neutral party selects the winning tickets from each basket, ensuring that every participant, whether they joined online or in person, has an equal chance of winning. The results are then prepared for announcement, upholding the integrity and excitement of the Sportsmen Expo raffle.
