IBAN is used in Europe, Mauritius, Saudi Arabia, and Tunisia in addition to the SWIFT code.

Q

Why is the price of the ticket non-refundable?

A

When you confirm your purchase online, an order form is sent to one of LottoSmile’s local offices. Local representatives purchase and upload ticket copies continuously in order to provide our customers with first-rate service around the clock. As a result, once an order has been forwarded to a local office for purchase, that purchase is already in process and we are unable to cancel it.

If you feel that an error has occurred or you require more information regarding a purchase, please don’t hesitate to contact customer support via email, live chat, or Facebook.
