How Passion for the Reef Created Australia's Most Eco-Conscious Lottery

GBL Logo

Great Barrier Lotto

Born from a marine biologist's dream in Cairns, Great Barrier Lotto has evolved from small coastal raffles to Australia's premier eco-lottery. Our unique "Reef Rescue Draw System" uses actual coral-safe materials in our machinery, setting new standards for sustainable gaming.

What makes us different? Our signature seashell-shaped draw chamber and the world's first carbon-neutral lottery balls. Each Thursday's draw is broadcast live from our floating studio near the reef, featuring marine life experts and traditional Torres Strait Islander performances.

Our proudest tides:

  • 2023's $80M "Ocean Guardian Jackpot"
  • Funding 52 coral restoration projects
  • Introducing Australia's first plastic-free lottery tickets
  • Creating more environmentalist millionaires than any lottery

Security as robust as the reef:

  • QLD Office of Liquor and Gaming regulation
  • Marine-biologist monitored draw procedures
  • Blockchain-verified ticket tracking
  • Biometric winner authentication

Beyond prizes, we nurture ocean stewardship through our "Reef Guardians Club" offering winners exclusive reef experiences and environmental philanthropy guidance.

As we navigate 2024, Great Barrier Lotto remains committed to delivering exhilarating wins while protecting the natural wonder that inspires our game. Because everyone deserves to ride this wave of good fortune!
