The National Lottery Authority (NLA) has reviewed its payment policy, limiting its fast pay policy to a threshold of GHC5, 000. This replaces the existing fast pay threshold policy of GHC12, 000
The new policy, according to the Public Relations Unit of the Authority, is aimed at minimizing inconvenience to winners of small prizes.
Winners of small prizes currently have to travel to NLA offices to register their wins due to the existing arrangement of thorough validation and investigations of ‘Big Winning Tickets’.
The Authority has accordingly urged the staking public to communicate all challenges with the existing policy through the treasury managers or account officers for redress.
It has further expressed gratitude to the staking public and lotto marketing companies for their cooperation.
