Company description
The NLA was originally established as the Department of National Lotteries in 1958 with a Mandate to organize raffles for the public to have fun and win prizes. In 1960, the Lotto and Betting Act 94 was passed into law to start lottery in Ghana with the aim of raising revenue to support the development of the country.
Over the past fifty years, the NLA has evolved from its earlier incarnation as a Civil Service Institution known as the Department of National Lotteries (DNL); it has been transformed into an autonomous Public Service Institution, with a legal monopoly on the organization of lotteries in Ghana, and one which is of the most important contributors to both Government revenues and employment generation.
Hence, in 2006, the passing of an Act of parliament, the National
Manual Platform
The first Director of the Department, Mr. F. W. Brennan, a Maltese, introduced the first Fixed Odds Lottery in Ghana, known as 5/90 Fixed Odds game because it involved picking five winning numbers out of 90. The first draw was conducted on September 29, 1962.
The Lotto Coupons used at that time were popularly referred to as “Manual” because Lotto Receivers who retailed the Lottery Products physically wrote the numbers chosen by customers on the coupons and duplicate submitted to the Lottery Authority before the draw is held. Winners of the draw were selected manually by DNL staff from the stocks of Lotto Coupons sold.
Mechanised Coupon
The growing popularity of the lottery game, the increasing patronage in the late 60’s and 70’s and sometimes human error in writing of the numbers on the coupons as well as the selection of the winners culminated into the Mechanized Lotto Coupon. The new coupon was introduced in 1979 to solve some of the inefficiencies of the Manual coupons.
The new coupons afforded lotto stakers /players the opportunity to select their five (5) lucky numbers from 1to 90 numbers which are printed on the coupons by crossing out the chosen numbers.
With the introduction of these coupons, winners are selected by feeding a specially devised machine with ‘staked coupons’ which will then select the winning coupons from non-winning ones. Winners are paid after a 1 month period thus reducing the payment time for manual tickets which was 3 months.
Universal Manual Coupon
The Mechanized Coupons were discontinued in 2001 due to the lack of replaceable parts and the high cost of maintaining the printing and sorting machines. This also paved way for the modernization, expansion and automation of lottery operations. Thus in 2003 a new coupon known as Universal Manual Coupon was introduced. The NLA introduced the Universal coupons that can be used to retail all its products or games at any given time without returning the unsold coupons to the NLA.
Automated Platform
In 2006, the NLA introduced the automation machines that generate the lottery tickets upon purchase. The system works via GPRS (online). The acceptance of the automation machines took a while for both the retailers and lotto stakers in the first phase of implementation. The change from Manual to Automation however was absolutely necessary due to the numerous challenges involved in the Manual system.
The Automation System commenced with the use of TPM machine which were operated by Service Providers Known as SIMNET, until 2009 when the NLA introduced the Portable Automation Machines to completely fade out the Manual System. The PADPM is the INGENICO SAGEM EFT 930G’. its software application has been specifically designed and manufactured for the NLA for the dispensing of lottery products. The two automated platform ie. TPM and PADPM were operating at the same until the shutdown of the TPM system by its Service Providers (SIMNET) IN October 2012. With the shutdown of SIMNET in 2012, Lots Services was introduced in 2013 to provide technical support to NLA alongside INGENICO. Currently the NLA operates on an Automated Platform which is solely technically supported by LOTS Services.
Our Passion, Our Work, Our Home
The NLA provides an enviable corporate platform that encourages creativity, innovation and best management practices. We come from various academic and professional backgrounds, with different experiences and areas of specialization, but our varied abilities are able to find a unique blend and complete harmony in the NLA’s environment resulting in efficiency and high productivity.
Over the years the organization has worked hard to create and preserve a thriving working environment that encourages our ingenuity as workers, tapping deep into our acquired expertise and knowledge, and utilizing our skills in ways that are most creative and fulfilling.
Our passions are ignited each day as we work on varied tasks and assignments aimed at developing new products or improving existing ones, strengthening the bond between our core staff, retailers and ultimate customers, as well as improving our modes of delivery and maximizing the value for our ultimate customers.

Good morning Mr My name is Olivia chatting from Accra. Yes you did not get paid because you did not use perming/permutation and if you don't perm the numbers it means you are using all the five numbers as banker, and if one fails it affects all your stake please.
You can also contact me for your winnings and sure numbers for lottery, Thanks

NLA *959# on MTN is a scam
I stick a lotto on my phone using the MTN code *959#. I stick one direct which is 85 and won buh in the evening I received a message from you people saying my number I stick didn't match the lotto results. I stick the number on Friday 5th June 2020 and my number is ********, are you people trying to scam me or what.
PUBLIC USER
Siaw is never a scam if you play one direct it means the first ball to drop so if your 85 played and not in the first ball is not a win. I won 86-22 on Thursday and my money was paid in the same evening.
PUBLIC USER

When you stake 1 direct 1 cedi what will be the out come when you win

I staked a GHC 50 lottery through *959# on 19/03/22 and surprisingly I did not receive a ticket to confirm my stake. I also did not receive the results of the draw to confirm whether I have worn or not. Although I received an alert from Vodafone that my money has been paid to Ghana Keed limited I did not receive my ticket. Why should all this happen when Keed Limited successfully took my money?

Why has NLA not refund my money back
Please on 30th march I stake Monday special on my phone using my mobile money number later I had a confirmation that NLA has cancelled all it games for feather notice,but as at now I have not receive my money back,WHY?
PUBLIC USER
Hmmm the matter is not small oo. A certain man named James Ofori and a lady called Joyce Frimpong has come to scam me under the day light. Even the registration fee and the staking money and some cards and about three types of withdrawal forms cost me two thousand and three hundred. They later sent another withdrawal form also cost five hundred Ghana. So I didn't forgive them I gave to them rough. Since that time till now everyone is quiet about my that huge amount. This twenty thousand Ghana cedis. So please what should I do to get my money back. Thank you very much
PUBLIC USER
Yes, certainly a man called James Ofori and a lady called Akamah Esinam have scammed me over GHC 15,000. The two claim they work at National Lottories Authorities office. In the beginning they asked me to register with GHC 500. After the registration they issued me a card with my picture and logo of NLA.I spent a lot.I was asked to send GHC300 to stake it at the headquarters.They WhatsApp the winning ticket to me showing that I have won GHC600,000
This is where they got me. Knowing I have won such a such amount and paying GHC15,000 is nothing to me.As I am writing now have not even received a cedi.I have been calling the lady, this lady insulted me on phone. Such lotto scammers group are plenty and using the name of NLA to dupe people. Can't the police flush out this scaming syndicate?I am here to assist the Authorities to flush them out.I have their pictures and phone numbers. Most of them put their advert on Facebook

My regards to everyone here, the scammers are using the name of NLA to dupes many people in this country is becoming unbecoming. So please with much due respect, the administration must do something good about it. I can give names of four people found doing that on Facebook, James Ofori, Joyce Frumping, Bright/Awumi and others. Please find them because they are tanish the image of NLA.

When you perm 2 numbers with 3gh how much will you get when you win
How much will I win if I play 2 sure
How much will I win If I play 5 numbers and got 2 correct
If a stake three numbers with 10.00 each and I win all. How much will I earn
If I perm 3 numbers and I win 1 number, how much will I get
ADMINISTRATOR
Hey Eric,
If you permute 3 numbers in a lottery and win only 1 number, the amount you receive depends on the specific rules and payout structure of the Ghana National Lottery Authority (NLA). Generally, with a permutation bet, you’re covering all possible arrangements of your 3 chosen numbers. If you win only 1 number, it might not be enough to cover your entire stake or guarantee a payout, depending on their system.

How much will I win if I stake 2sure for 5 cedis
ADMINISTRATOR
If the payout for a 2sure bet is 240 times your stake, here's how you calculate your winnings for a 5 cedis stake:
So:
Winnings = 5 cedis × 240 = 1,200 cedis
Thus, if you place a 2sure bet with a stake of 5 cedis and win, you would receive 1,200 cedis.
So:
Winnings = 5 cedis × 240 = 1,200 cedis
Thus, if you place a 2sure bet with a stake of 5 cedis and win, you would receive 1,200 cedis.
Can I select 5 numbers for perm 2?
When I perm 5 numbers, does it mean all my numbers has to be chosen before I win
