Safclotto Review

Stirling Albion Lotto is one of those charming little homegrown games. It’s operated to fundraise for the Stirling Albion Football Club, in particular, the Youth program. You are not going to win any of those mega jackpots at safeclotto.co.uk, but at the same time, for £1 a play (ticket line), you can get in on the fun.

The Game at Safclotto

It doesn’t get much more straightforward than this. Players pick four numbers between 1 and 40 per ticket line. The draw takes place once a week on Wednesday at 13:00 GMT. Ticket lines can be purchased in person with a reoccurring form or online. There is a small charge for direct bank debits. Otherwise, they use Master Card & Visa for the face value of their lottery tickets.

Stirling Albion Lotto & Winning

The jackpot starts at £1,000 and grows each week by £250 until it is won up to a maximum of £20,000. Jackpot winners must pick all four numbers correctly. Three numbers pay out £250. Multiple winners divide/share any of the prize levels. Winners will be notified by snail mail, published in the local newspaper, at outlets, and online at both the stirlingalbionfc.co.uk and safclotto.co.uk websites. Players have two months to claim their prize, or it’s put back into the Trust and local charities 50/50 split.

The Trust and Stirling Albion Football Club

The Stirling Albion Supporters Trust was registered in 2002 as an independent society to build support between the football club, community, and fans. The football club went through a heap of downs financially, and supporters became more and more concerned about how it was being managed. In 2010, The Trust bought the Stirling Albion Football Club. This was the first time a senior league club in the UK became owned by the fans. The club is supported by membership subscriptions, advertising, and other charity drives, including their lottery.

Customer Service & Safclotto.co.uk

Getting in touch with the team that runs this lottery is pretty easy, including the fact that they post the name of the guy who heads it up and his phone number. There is also a snail mail and email address and an online form. There are no complaints, but then again, seriously, this is about as straightforward as it gets—pick four numbers and win (or try to). It appears that anyone can play as long as you aren’t bound by the laws where you are. Oh, you do have to be 16 or older.

The Bottom Line

You are certainly not going to become a millionaire from this jackpot, but at the same time, it’s cute and easy to play. A legit group runs it and is monitored by the UK Gambling Commission. If you are an Albion Football Club supporter, then I am sure you are already playing! If you are not, then for £1 a ticket line, this could be a giggle.

Pros:

Official

Simple

Supports Football

Cons:

No Mega Jackpot

Only Weekly

Supports Football

This private lottery gets a thumbs up for being so straightforward, and at the same time, I think I’m going to stick to US Powerball and Canada’s 6/49. I’m still planning on that mega jackpot win.
