3. Where a  jackpot or snowball prize is in play the caller/ host will announce prior to calling any  numbers the prize and number of calls that will be valid for a claim and if the Jackpot numbers fail to create a winner the game will continue on and additional numbers called  for a standard prize

7. The first Player who marks off all the numbers on their ticket for the game in play ie single line double line or full panel should unmute themselves and shout loud and clearly  to stop the game and claim the prize  before the next number is called . The winning card must contain the last number called and the claimant must provide the correct panel number they are claiming as a win

12 Once the Caller/Host has declared a game closed and/or the indicator board has been cleared, no further claims will be accepted.

13. Where more than 1 game is played on the same ticket, the 2nd game cannot be won until the 1st game has ended and at least 1 further number has been called.

The promoter  does not accept any liability in the event of disputes arising from such arrangements or any sharing function offered on its products.
