How It Works

You set it up once. Everyone else does their part.

No more collecting money, photocopying tickets, or chasing people down. Each member handles their own ticket — the system handles everything else.

1

Create your pool and set the rules

Name your pool, define how winnings are split, and set the ground rules. Invite members by email or share a link.

Every member must consent to the rules before they can add a ticket. If you update the rules, the system asks everyone to agree again — so there are never misunderstandings about what was agreed to.

One-time setup. Rules are documented and visible to everyone.

Members buy tickets and upload proof

Each member buys their own ticket — wherever they are — and snaps a photo to upload. The system scans the ticket numbers automatically.

  • Uploading a ticket automatically activates that member for the drawing
  • Everyone in the pool is notified the pool is active
  • Ticket images are visible to the group — timestamped and logged

No money to collect. No copies to make. No spreadsheets.

3

The pool locks and everyone waits together

Right before the drawing, the system locks everything down:

  • Ticket uploads close — no late additions
  • The participant list locks — no "I meant to be in" after the fact
  • Nothing can be changed — the system is the referee, not you

Results are checked and everyone is notified

Once the winning numbers are posted, OfficeLotteryPools checks every ticket automatically and notifies the group.

  • Small wins stay with the ticket holder
  • Big wins are shared based on the rules everyone agreed to
  • Every ticket and result stays visible to the group

Then the next drawing starts — with no extra work from you.

Built-In Protection

Most pools don't feel riskyuntil they win

When there's money on the line, uncomfortable questions surface fast. OfficeLotteryPools answers them before they're even asked.

Everyone Agrees to the Rules

Before anyone can add a ticket, they must consent to the pool's rules. Change the rules? The system asks every member to agree again.

A documented record of what everyone agreed to — before emotions take over.

Locked Before the Drawing

Tickets and the participant list lock automatically before the draw. No late additions, no "I meant to be in" disputes.

Everyone sees the same locked record — who's in and what numbers were played.

Total Transparency

Every ticket photo is visible to the group, timestamped, and logged. No hidden numbers. No "did you really buy that ticket?" questions.

The system is the neutral referee — so you don't have to be.

Transparency protects everyone

OfficeLotteryPools acts as the neutral system of record — documented rules, locked tickets, and a clear participant list help you avoid difficult conversations with friends and coworkers before they start.

Questions?

You're not the first to ask

Is this legal?
Absolutely. OfficeLotteryPools helps you organize and document your pools — we don't sell tickets or handle payouts. You still purchase tickets from your local retailer. We're just the digital record keeper.
What if someone disputes a ticket?
Every ticket photo and participant list is logged and visible to your entire group before the drawing. Once the draw time arrives, tickets are locked and can't be changed. Everyone has proof.
Are the rules actually enforceable?
We're not lawyers, and the consent system isn't a legal contract. But it creates a clear, timestamped record of what every member agreed to — which gives any third party a strong sense of the group's intent. It's far better than a handshake or a group text.
Do I have to pay to use it?
Nope. You can start completely free — no credit card required. Our free tier works great for most groups. You only upgrade if you want advanced features later.
Can I use this on my phone?
Yes! It's fully mobile-responsive. No app download needed — just open it in your browser. Snap ticket photos right from your phone.

Your pool runs itself. Your members trust the process.

Set the rules, invite your group, and let the system handle the rest. Free forever. No credit card. No risk.
