Remote lotteries (including online lotteries)

Lotteries can be remote (including online lotteries), or non-remote.

If you allow people to participate in your large society lottery or local authority lottery by  remote means (for example, via an online lottery) you will need the correct licence(s) from the Gambling Commission.
