How it works
Send each person a link. LuckyDuck keeps track from there.
Everyone agrees to the pool terms. LuckyDuck then keeps track of who joined, your ticket and every result, and never holds your money.

One link per person.
Dana agrees from a private link, no account required. A free account adds signed-in access to the pool, tickets and results.
- What you pay
- Your organizer, directly. LuckyDuck never collects or holds your money. In pools of 5 or more, what you pay your organizer includes a $1 share of the LuckyDuck fee, plus tax on that fee only.
- Before you join
- You confirm you are at least the legal age to play the lottery in your pool's province (18 or 19). Invite links work for 14 days.

Then every draw is checked.
LuckyDuck checks two official results first. When they agree, it checks the ticket. The result is recorded for the whole pool, so nobody has to ask.
When your pool finishes, you can start the next one with the same people. Each person agrees again.
