Home Lotts is an independent tracker for Australian charity and community lotteries. It exists to answer one question properly: which draw is next, what did it win, and did any of my numbers land?
Australian charities and community groups run lotteries constantly — for schools, hospitals, clubs, welfare agencies and local causes. Buying a ticket is easy. Remembering what you bought, when it draws, and what it won is not.
Home Lotts keeps that record for you. Add the six-digit number printed on your ticket stub, and the app tracks it from purchase through draw day, works out which prize tier your number falls into, and shows you a digit-by-digit comparison so you can see exactly how close you were.
We do not sell tickets, take payments, hold funds, or make prize claims. Those all stay with the organiser whose name is on the ticket.
This matters more than anything else on this site, so we are explicit about it.
Every lottery, draw date, drawn number, prize pool, winner count and result currently shown in the app is sample data created to demonstrate the product. It is not a real draw sheet. None of it comes from, or is connected to, any real lottery organiser, charity, gaming regulator or government body.
Entries you add yourself are yours. Demo entries are tagged DEMO in every list, and you can remove all of them in one action from Profile → Data & privacy without touching your own tickets.
As real data is introduced, each result carries one of these labels:
| Label | What it means |
|---|---|
| Unverified | Entered from the organiser’s own announcement or social media. We have not yet compared it against an independent published draw sheet. Treat prize amounts as provisional. |
| Verified | Checked line by line against a regulator-published draw sheet or a source we can attribute. This is the only label we would rely on to settle a prize dispute. |
| Demo | Fictional sample data. Not a real draw. Never treated as a result. |
Where we have made an error, we correct the record and note the change rather than quietly overwriting it. Draw sheets are the organiser’s official record; if you believe one of our results is wrong, please tell us and we will check it against the source.
We work in this order, and we stop at the first source that holds up:
Where two sources disagree, the higher tier wins. We hold the disagreement open and say so rather than publishing a single confident number.
Most of these lotteries draw six digits, and most award prizes on matching digits from either end of your number. Home Lotts scores your ticket the same way:
So the digit display in the app is literal: each lit digit is a digit that matched, in order, from the same end. Two numbers can score three digits in different ways, and the app tells you which end matched.
Two honest limitations. We can only match tickets whose draw sheet we hold, and a real-world claim is always settled by the organiser — not by us. If we score a ticket as a winner, that is a strong signal to check your stub, not a substitute for checking it.
Buttons marked ENTER NEXT DRAW take you to the organiser’s site, or to a configured partner link. We are transparent about this because a tracking service that hides its commercial relationships is not a service you can trust with your ticket numbers.

We are not a lottery operator, a gaming authority, a financial product, or a substitute for your own records. Specifically:
Lottery tickets are a form of gambling. There is no strategy that makes the odds better, and past draws tell you nothing about future ones. If gambling is causing you harm, free and confidential help is available — see our play responsibly page.
Found a wrong result, a broken link, or something we have got wrong about a lottery? We want to hear about it.
Email hello@thehomelott.com, or use the form on the contact page. For a result we have published incorrectly, include the lottery name, the draw date, and what our page showed — that is enough for us to check it against the source.
