The UAE Lottery, a first for the nation’s gaming and entertainment sectors, has been formally introduced by The Game LLC. As the first and only fully regulated lottery in the United Arab Emirates, it supports the country’s overarching objective of economic diversification while upholding stringent laws and responsible gaming standards.
A New Era for Gaming in the UAE
Launched under the auspices of the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) and licensed in July, the UAE Lottery is a significant milestone in the region’s entertainment landscape. The lottery offers a wide variety of games aimed at attracting a diverse audience, and is available to all UAE residents over the age of 18.
Tickets are now available for purchase on the lottery’s official website. The first live draw will take place on December 14, with an exciting prize pool that includes a grand prize of Dhs100,000,000 (Lucky Day) and seven additional “Lucky Chance” IDs, each worth Dhs100,000. In addition to the main draw, participants can also try their luck with scratch cards offering prizes ranging from Dhs50,000 to Dhs1,000,000.
One of the core values of the UAE Lottery is its commitment to responsible gaming. The Game LLC has designed the platform to meet global standards, ensuring fairness and security at every stage, from the lottery draws to the selection of winners. Bishop Woosley, Director of Lottery Operations at The Game, emphasized the importance of this commitment, stating: “Our mission at The UAE Lottery is to inspire people to dream big, aligning with our slogan, ‘Dare to Imagine.’ We aim to create exciting experiences while promoting responsible play.”
Woosley also highlighted the thorough evaluation process by the GCGRA, which guarantees that all operations comply with the highest standards. With transparency and customer experience at its core, the UAE Lottery is poised to become a popular entertainment choice for residents across the country.
The inaugural draw promises to offer life-changing prizes, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the UAE’s gaming industry.
