Lottery software that helps you meet Gambling Commission and UK GDPR rules

Protecting players and keeping proper records

Running a society lottery means protecting players and keeping proper records. Combase builds those checks into the everyday work, and runs them again before every draw.

Protecting players, records and returns

Compliance checks that run before every draw, and the records to prove it.

Maximum chances per person

Memberships held by the same person are added together. Anyone over the limit is flagged before the draw, and each conversation is recorded.

Self-exclusion

When a player asks to self-exclude, they are removed from every draw. The period and how any remaining credit was handled are recorded and kept.

Age checks

Dates of birth are recorded with each player and checked against the minimum age before they can play.

Gambling Commission returns

The proceeds, prizes and draw figures your returns ask for, produced from your lottery’s own records.

Every draw kept

Each draw’s entries, prizes and winners are stored, with a backup taken before the draw runs.

A log of every change

Who changed a player’s details, payments or chances, and when, so questions can be answered quickly.

Compliance built in, not bolted on

Chances limits and self-exclusion are checked for you, and every contact and outcome is recorded in the player's log. Draws are run and recorded in the same place, so you can show how each one was done.

Testimonials

“Our canvassers are experienced in selling lottery products, and they say the pattern pricing makes it an easier sale because we offer an amount to pay, rather than a number of entries.” – Chris Routley, Hospiscare, Exeter

UK GDPR

Consent with history: Email, post, phone and text preferences for each player, with the date and source of every change.

Subject access requests: Export everything held about a person, including payments, draws, letters and notes, in one go.

Data retention: Remove the personal details of long-gone players on a schedule, while keeping the totals your accounts need.

In a free online demo we show you Combase Cloud with sample data: adding players, importing payments, running a draw and sending the winners' letters. There is no obligation, and lotteries with fewer than 200 players can start using it for free.
