JinniLotto Exposed — Could Your Winnings Go Up In Smoke?

JinniLotto Review
Looking at Jinnilotto.com, the “Jinni” logo puts a smile on my face. How could you not love a little blue man? Okay, it made me think of magic lamps and wishes. This is an online lottery provider offering individual lottery tickets plus EuroMillions syndicate. Back to the Jinn, of course, my first wish would be to win a lottery. Could JinniLotto.com be the place?
Jinnilotto.com’s Games
Jinnilotto.com offers 10 international lotteries including US Powerball and EuroMillions with quite a few European lotteries. Lottery tickets can be purchased from 1 to unlimited either using your favorite numbers or Quick Pick. Multiple plays are discounted by 4 draws/4%, 8 draws/10%, and 26 draws/15%. There is no information on when the amount is charged to your credit or debit card and/or what happens if you close your account say if you take the never miss a draw option and then cancel a week later.

Group/Syndicate Play
There is one syndicate or group option at Jinnilotto.com – EuroMillions. The syndicate owns 50 ticket lines. Players can purchase 1, 5, or 10 shares. But seriously – only 50 ticket lines. The numbers are chosen for you and are random. They don’t follow a set pattern like the same base numbers with the bonus ball, changing for each ticket. Once all shares are sold a new syndicate starts. The same discounts as buying single tickets apply.
Winnings at Jinni Lotto
For winnings under US$ 1000, Jinnilotto will not take any commission. For winnings over US$ 1000, they say “the company shall charge a commission of 10%”. They also say, they will be responsible for assisting in collecting the winnings, but in some cases, a lottery operator may require to collect your winnings in person.
Promotions & Loyalty Programs
Okay, folks – once again there are the ole Frequent Purchase Points (FPPS) that add up to a variety of tiers of discounts ranging from Bronze through to Diamond. Like I really want to know how much I’ve spent on lottery tickets! There isn’t any info on how this discount works with the other discounts offered in purchasing multiple draws. So what we figure is the more tickets purchased and the higher the tier, the harder it is to get to the next level because of the discounts. Does that make sense?

Is Jinni Lotto Legit?
Seriously, folks – this is simply yet another lottery that is charging an additional fee on top of the face value of lottery tickets for the service of buying them locally for you.
The team can’t give these folks a thumbs down at the same time, we couldn’t figure out any added value of why to play here. Please leave your reviews and tell us about your experience of playing the lottery on JinniLotto.com.

I have tried to purchase a ticket but the payment link just won’t work properly. I am thinking that their website does not work on mobile phones. Wish they would update the website to allow mobile use. From Canada
Once again. This is dodgy as he’ll. 3 emails trying to sort this out. And the piss poor service couldn’t even be bothered to put my tickets on for Tuesday night. Service is so bad that I can’t even get a reply.
So I’ll be putting their terrible customer service on social media I think.

Dodgy dodgy dodgy. I haven’t had so many issues with any online lotto as I have with this.
Pick my own numbers and it won’t finalise payment. Still to this day I have not seen the numbers I have picked posted as my ticket. Try to use a small winnings to play on. And again it won’t let me pay out of the winnings or let me play my chosen numbers. Or I cannot see my ticket until the next day after it was drawn. Very disappointed. Try to call with no reply. Get a call back then get cut off.
Again, very disappointed.
