Trust & compliance
Compliance isn’t a feature. It’s the platform.
Raffles are regulated gambling, run by volunteers handling other people’s money. That’s why we build the rules into the product instead of leaving them in a help article — so the compliant way is the only way a RaffleLink raffle can run.
Every state’s rules, built in
Permit thresholds, fundraising caps, draw ordering, duration limits — all 8 states and territories are encoded in the platform and checked while you set up. If your raffle needs a permit, we flag it before you launch and can apply on your behalf, generating the supporting documents your state requires.
Check your state’s permit rules →Draws regulators can audit
Every RaffleLink draw is performed by certified draw software using a cryptographically secure random number generator — no barrel, no bias, no “trust us”. The result is sealed into a signed draw record covering every fact that defines the outcome, backed by a tamper-evident log, so your organisation (and your regulator) can verify exactly what happened and when. Hybrid raffles combine paper and digital tickets fairly in the same auditable draw, and winners are notified automatically.
Verified organisations, not anonymous raffles
Organisations on RaffleLink are verified before they fundraise — ABNs are checked against the Australian Business Register, and Victorian organisations are matched to the VGCCC’s declared community and charitable organisations register. Supporters see a Verified Organisation badge, so they know their ticket money is going where it says it is. When the raffle wraps up, the platform produces the tax invoices and statutory return forms your state expects.
