A lottery web application, aimed at African countries. The site's design features traditional African colour schemes. The application allows users to purchase a ticket for participation in one of the six lotteries and to pay by any chosen method. The administrative interface allows site administrators access for management of lottery draws, stakes and prize money pay-outs. The site's system is integrated with the SMPP protocol, allowing users to purchase tickets via SMS.
The lottery website allows the user to purchase a lottery ticket online or create a code to be sent via SMS to the relevant number for their chosen lottery draw. The user will then receive a confirmation SMS containing the details of the ticket. The home page displays lottery information boxes relating to stakes and prizes for the next draw, as well as the time remaining until the draw and the results of the most recent one. The ticket purchase page allows the user to select ticket parameters, add the ticket to their cart and make a payment, or send it as a gift to a friend via email. The SMS ticket page is similar to the standard ticket purchase page except for the fact that it doesn't contain a payment block. Instead it shows a code containing the chosen parameters and the number to which the code should be sent to in order to obtain a ticket. On the ticket check page, users can check whether they have a winning ticket and if so, find out the total winnings for their ticket. This page also provides access to the lottery rules page. On the draw results page users can view information about the results of completed draws, including the winning number combinations and the number of winners for each category. This page also allows users to download the data in a range of formats. Users can download results for a selected range of draws or simply download the entire range of draw information. This page shows statistics relating to the balls drawn, including the number of times a particular ball has been drawn and the number of draws since it last appeared. Users can also view information about the company and read the company's latest news on the website. In the FAQ section users can view questions and answers across various categories. On the contacts page the user can view contact information for representatives of the company and send a message or suggestion to the administrator. Users can change the site language by clicking on the language button in the top menu. Users can register at the site by creating a local account or by signing in with a chosen social network. After registering, users can view their personal account.
