However, the player needs to register, be 18 years of age or older and enter their credit card number. The draws take place twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The draws take place on predetermined dates throughout the year. There are three competitions per week on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
