unsuccessful raffle distribution clause:

If in the unlikely event that less than 30% of total tickets in any raffle are sold, the prize pool that has been saved up pro-rata, apart from the Weekly Bonus Draws and Subscription Supporter Draws that may have already paid out prizes, will be distributed equally among all the causes signed up as benefiting partners in that raffle.

At 30% sold the prize pool will contain $300,000. Anything less than 30% sold will be distributed as per this clause.

Customers are not entitled to a refund as 70% of their ticket cost goes as a donation to their chosen cause 2 weeks after ticket purchase, with the ticket already having had a chance to win in the bonus draw during the week of purchase. 

Purchase rules state that there are no refunds.

When using PREZZEE online digital gift cards, there is no fee to us or the winner.
*NOTE* If in the future we are required to use physical cards then the prize amounts will change to cover the $25,000 needed to supply 4000 physical gift cards.
