The Darlington FC Fans Lottery has underwent a total makeover in order for it to be made more customer-friendly in terms of ease and seamlessness.
The above-mentioned lottery is a fund raising initiative that has been originally known under the name Club 1883 Draw. It provides its users with a massive cash prize on a weekly basis, as well as with a special bonus cash prize every month. All members of the Club 1883 Draw have been automatically signed as members of the newly-created Darlington Football Club Fans Lottery.
Now, the DFC Fans Lottery has been promoted as easier to play than ever. Users can visit the website of their favourite football club in order to sign up in the lottery. By signing up with the DFC Fans Lottery, every user is to be entered automatically into the weekly draws. They will also be billed via Direct Debit payment method.
Participating in the lottery is a great way for the fans to support their favourite football club, as the proceeds accumulated from the lottery, are directed to the football club and are split in a 50/50 ratio between the Football Club and the prize fund. In addition, they qualify for the chance to win a cash prize on a weekly basis.
What is great about the participants in the lottery, is the fact that currently there is no limit on the amount of entries they are allowed to make. When signing up in the website of the DFC Fans Lottery, all players are allowed to choose the number of entries they would like to make. The numbers are drawn at random on a monthly basis at the DFCSG board meeting. Then, they are published on both social media and the lottery’s website, and the winners in the draws are directly contacted by the organisers.
Currently, there are almost 500 members of the Darlington FC Fans Lottery. The weekly prizes which are paid out by the lottery amount to £50. What is more, there is a super-draw that amounts to £1,000 and is carried out every month. The DFC Fans Lottery has itself revealed that the amount that had been paid up to date is estimated to more than £30,000.
Thanks to the draws that are processed on a weekly and monthly basis, the Darlington Football Club has drawn a benefit of about £15,000 annually.
