Matchday Fundraising, Done Properly
Run a matchday draw that pays for itself — without a licence.
Turn every matchday into income. Supporters enter from their phone, one walks away with a cash prize, and the rest funds the club — run as a licence-free prize draw, so there's no registration, no returns and no bucket of cash to count.
What is a matchday 50/50 draw?
Supporters buy entries on the day of the fixture.
After the final whistle, one entry is drawn for a cash prize — the rest of the pot funds the club.
The classic split is 50/50 — half to the winner, half to the club. You can run any split that suits you.
Every fixture is a fresh draw. Home, away, cup, friendly — every game becomes income.
No licence. No bucket of cash.
Traditional matchday raffles mean cloakroom tickets, a cash float, volunteers chasing change — and a quiet worry about whether the licence paperwork is right.
Play Fund Win runs it as a prize draw. There's always a free way to enter with the same chance of winning. That structure keeps it outside lottery rules — so no Gambling Commission licence, no council registration, no annual returns.
Entries are online. The draw is automatic. The winner record is automatic. The cash never touches a volunteer's hands.
