World Lottery Club Review
Tripping over WorldLotteryClub.com, Lotto Exposed Team was pleasantly surprised. Let me explain that. WorldLotteryClub is fully licensed as an Annexio Limited with the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission. As WorldLotteryClub claims, they
“Are required to satisfy the jurisdiction’s licensing requirements and to comply with the stringent online gaming standards and player protection rules”.
Let’s examine this further.
Games at World Lottery Club
Besides single tickets in the usual EuroMillions, Mega Millions, EuroJackpot and US Powerball, WorldLotteryClub.com offers the Polish Lotto, German Lotto 6aus49, Swedish Lotto and Finish Lotto tickets. Players have the option of reading the site in English, Russian, Finnish, German, Suomi, and yes – Polish. All jackpots are posted in GBP and paid in that currency.
On the bottom of all their pages, there is a line that says
“Annexio Limited T/A World Lottery Club does not operate a lottery. Members place bets on the outcome of national lotteries. Official lottery tickets and insurance are purchased based on the bets placed so that all winnings are equal to the cash option of national lottery winnings.”
I get that they purchase insurance just in case they don’t have the tickets – but, the T & C says the money comes from the relevant operator.
World Lottery Club and Winning
Winners will be notified by email if they win £10 or more. Only winnings will be transferred to your credit card or bank account. Players cannot withdraw any amount that has been placed into their account to play.
VIPs at World Lottery Club
As a VIP member of World Lottery Club, you’ll be given the opportunity to play some of the world’s biggest and wealthiest lotteries such as the USA Mega Millions and the US Powerball.
Who Is WorldLotteryClub.com?
Annexio Limited owns and operates this site as well as a heap of others. Each site has different options for betting on single tickets and syndicates for different lotteries. They all offer snail mail and a UK telephone number and online chat.

I too have been caught out. Signed up to play a couple of one-off lines for the Powerball. But seems like these con artists think you want to pay continuously! NO I DO NOT WANT TO BLOODY SUBSCRIBE!! No options to tell you, no warning. Only after when you see your purchased ticket.
Hi Arron
The subscription option is offered to customers at the end of the initial purchase, you can either take the offer of the subscription, which will automatically renew on a weekly basis or decline the offer, the choice is yours.
We can see that you selected the subscription offer initially but then sent in a cancellation request to cancel the subscription activated.
Your subscription was cancelled immediately and no further charges were incurred.

Hi,
I recently signed up and entered the powerball draw, can I ask why when I clicked and finished putting on my lottery that it said next payment will be taking the 19th of January? I do not wish to play consistently at all and this has been done very misleadingly.
Hi David
Unfortunately we can’t locate your account as we only have the name “David” in this post so have addressed your comment generically.
You can purchase your entries to play as a one off or they can be subscribed, so they automatically play each week, the choice is yours.
If you have selected the subscribe option we will confirm the next charge date as part of the process to inform you when your next subscription payment will be collected.
Should you require an further assistance please don’t hesitate to contact us via our support email address, live chat or telephone.

I picked 2 lines on the Powerball — at cost of £2 plus one free draw.
The £2 has been deducted yet it says “you have paid for 0 tickets” ???
Have I just been conned?
Hi Mally
We can see that you successfully purchased a single line entry for the Powerball and got one free.
You paid a total of £2 for 2 single line entries. Both of your entries played in the draw on 13th January 2016. Simply login to your account to see if you won.
