Instant win.
Ready to reveal.

In the SafeDraw instant-win experience described here, TPAL’s certified random number generator pre-allocates prizes to winning entry numbers before entries open. Those allocations stay fixed. SafeDraw provides the connection to the provider’s systems and the interactive result experience.

  • Winning entry numbers are displayed and never change
  • Prize availability updates live as prizes are claimed
  • Unrevealed instant win results are automatically revealed after seven days
Understand instant win allocation

Regular draws.
Selected at draw time.

In a regular draw, eligible entries are collected into a pool. SafeDraw connects with TPAL’s Electronic Draw System to select winners at the scheduled draw time. There are no pre-allocated winning entry numbers to reveal as there are in instant win.

  • Entry closing and draw times are set out in the promotion’s terms
  • TPAL selects winners from the eligible entry pool at draw time
  • Winner notification, publication and claim steps follow the promotion’s terms

Approval 1291 names TPAL’s Instant Win System, version 1.1. Approval 1224 names its Electronic Draw System, version 1. Each applies to the system named in the document, subject to its conditions.
