The short version
The Lottery Pool is a free organizer tool for friends and family who want to run a shared lottery pool together. We help you keep track of who's in, upload ticket photos, and record results. That's it. We never touch your money — all payments happen directly between the people in your pool. Use this app responsibly and at your own risk.
The Lottery Pool is a free organizational tool — think of it like a shared notepad for your lottery pool. It helps friends and family coordinate who's participating, upload photos of purchased tickets, and keep a record of draw results.
All financial arrangements — buy-ins, splitting winnings, reimbursements — are entirely between the members of your pool. We play no part in those transactions.
Lottery tickets are a game of chance. There is no guarantee of winning. Only spend what you can comfortably afford to lose. If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling, free help is available at 1-800-522-4700 (National Problem Gambling Helpline, US).
You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal age to participate in lottery games in your state or country — whichever is higher) to use this app. By signing in, you confirm you meet this requirement and that lottery participation is legal where you live.
The person who creates a pool (the host) is responsible for:
The Lottery Pool app is a coordination tool — it is not involved in the money or trust relationship between hosts and members. Any disputes between members are between the people involved.
This app is provided free of charge, as-is. We do our best to keep it running reliably, but we make no guarantees of uptime or error-free operation. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for:
Every wall post and ticket photo has a Report button. If you see content that is abusive, harassing, obscene, off-topic, or otherwise violates these terms, report it — the pool's host is notified immediately and can remove it.
We review escalated reports and commit to acting on objectionable content within 24 hours of a valid report. "Acting" may mean removing the content, removing the reporter's or author's access to a pool, or terminating an account for repeat violations.
We also apply a basic profanity filter to posts and ticket captions. The filter is best-effort — please use the Report button for anything it misses.
To escalate a report, or to report content you cannot access via the in-app button, email support@thelotterypool.net with the pool name, a description, and (if possible) a screenshot.
We may suspend or remove accounts that abuse the platform, post fraudulent information, or violate these terms. You can delete your account any time by contacting us (see below).
We may update these terms as the app evolves. We'll update the date at the top when we do. Continued use after an update means you're okay with the changes.
Reach out any time at support@thelotterypool.net.
