Raffles $20,000 and less financial reporting FAQ

Raffles financial reporting FAQ 

EXPAND ALL COLLAPSE ALL

Do I need to set up a separate gaming bank account for my organization's raffle?

No. For raffles with a total ticket value of $20,000 and less, deposits from ticket sales, payments for prizes and expenses are to be made using a non-gaming bank account

For licensed charities that also conduct other types of gaming events (e.g., bingo or casino): 

The net raffle proceeds must be transferred to a current gaming account (bingo or casino) at the conclusion of the raffle's last draw. Net raffle proceeds equal total revenue less the cost of raffle prizes and expenses.

If an organization only conducts raffles with a total ticket value of $20,000 and less: 

The net proceeds remain in the non-gaming account to be spent on charitable uses. 

What are raffle expenses?

An AGLC-approved direct cost incurred to conduct a raffle (e.g., the costs of raffle tickets, a raffle licence or an approved supplier expense such as advertising or third party processing fees). 

Where do I show the approved supplier expenses?

Include these costs under the "Other" expenses section on the Raffle Licence Financial form. 

What if the raffle loses money?

All losses must be covered from non-gaming sources. 

Do I keep the raffle proceeds in a non-gaming account?

If your organization conducts other types of gaming events (such as bingo or casino), the net raffle proceeds must be transferred to an existing gaming bank account. 

What if the raffle is cancelled, duplicated or the raffle draw date is postponed?

Please email Gaming.Raffle@aglc.ca or call 1-855-506-1066 (ext. 5), providing full details.
