Locallotto.ie, is a Galway base software development and marketing company that have developed software and a marketing methodology for clubs, charities and societies in Ireland and Europe who use a lottery to raise funds. The system provides the owners of the lotteries with the ability to conveniently manage all aspects of the lottery, while dramatically increasing the market to which they can sell, using Internet technologies. The same level of convenience is also provided to the players or contributors to these lotteries regardless as to where in the world they may be. They are the first company in Europe to provide this service and the system is very easy to use.

The company has been in business for just under two years at this stage and to date there are over 300 GAA, Soccer and Rugby clubs and a number of charities and community groups using the system in Ireland, the UK and Spain. These clubs are now expanding their lotto ticket sales to supporters around the world in an easy to use, highly secure method. This number includes the majority of the Eircom Premier League sides and a number of GAA county boards in addition to clubs from almost every county in Ireland. Players at locallotto.ie can play for up to a year in one go and, once playing, are kept up to date on all club activity including their specific lotto number, by e-mail every week.

Speaking recently at the launch of the Galway County Board lotto, Warren Healy Managaing Director with Locallotto.ie, stated that he believed that in a number of years, the majority of activity on lotteries in Ireland will be over the internet and the activity of relying on a chance encounter to purchase tickets for the local lottery in a pub or outside the local shop, will be a thing of the past.

50% of the players to the participating lotteries are from the USA, UK, Canada and Australia with the remainder coming from Ireland and Northern Ireland.

There is currently over €900,000 in prize money available through the Locallotto.ie system today. This number is ever increasing and is projected to be over €1,000,000 in approximately 2 months.
