Several Lottoland promotions on Bing and Google displayed statements such as &#8220;Lottoland Irish Lotto &#8211; Only \u00a32&#8221; and &#8220;\u00a32 Charity Combo. Charity Lotto with DOUBLE the chance to win + BRC Scratchcard 50% OFF.

It is imperative that these materials unequivocally convey that the service entails wagering on lottery outcomes, rather than direct involvement in the lotteries themselves.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Lottoland is obligated to guarantee that all advertising efforts conspicuously and transparently incorporate this essential distinction regarding the act of placing bets on lottery results. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Kingdom&#8217;s advertising regulatory body, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), supported grievances lodged against Lottoland promotions appearing on Bing and Google search results.
