Play responsibly

At Fortunado Competitions, we want our draws to stay fun, exciting, and affordable. Playing should always feel like entertainment – never pressure. We encourage all customers to take part responsibly, stay aware of their spending, and treat competitions as optional leisure, not a way to make money.

Key points: Every competition shows its ticket limits, closing date, and odds Draws take place on time, regardless of ticket sales (unless stated as “not guaranteed”) Winners are chosen at random using an independent process All winners are published on our Winners page For full details, see our Terms & Conditions.

Setting Limits

You can set personal limits on how much you spend and how often you take part in competitions. These tools are available any time in your account area and are designed to help you stay fully in control. Visit: My Account → Spending Limits What you can do 1. Spending Limits Choose how much you want to allow yourself to spend over a specific period. Once set, your limit can only be reduced. This ensures that you don’t accidentally exceed an amount you’re comfortable with. You can set a limit: Per Day Per Week Per Month Per Year This feature helps you pace your entries and stay in full control of your budget. 2. Lock Account (Short Breaks) If you feel you need a short break from taking part, you can temporarily lock your account for a period of time. During a lock, you will not be able to make purchases until the chosen period ends. Available lock options: 1 Week 4 Weeks 12 Weeks 1 Year This tool is helpful if you need space to reset without permanently closing your account.

Self-exclusion (Permanent lock)

If you decide that you no longer wish to participate at all, you can choose Self-Exclude Permanently. This action permanently prevents access to making purchases on your account. Because this is a long-term decision, only choose this option if you are sure you no longer want to take part.
