Member Support Telephone Number – 0845 400 6927

Great news! The new Member Support number has now been installed. However, for a few days there will be limited service, meaning you might have the engaged tone a little more often than usual. We will resume a full service as soon as possible. 

Members using the old number (01492 534 483) will soon hear a short message directing them to the new number.

News of this new contact telephone number will be released to all members over the next few days. If you experience any problems using this new number, please email admin@vwdmail.com .

See Your Golden Tickets!

The news you’ve all been waiting for: stage 1 of the e-lottery Golden ticket webpage has now been released to your Members Area.  To check how many tickets you’ve accumulated for the exciting end-of-cycle draw and the ‘Win a Mini’ draw at the end of the year, simply login to your Members Area and click on the ‘Golden Ticket’ tab.

Some of you may notice that the ‘Golden Ticket’ tab has replaced the ‘e-lottery TV’ tab in the Affiliate back office. Don’t worry, you can still see all the presentations on the e-lottery YouTube channel. The e-lottery TV button will reappear on the site very soon.

We’d like to wish you the best of luck in the Golden Ticket draws and of course in the Golden Ticket promotion.  Remember - as an Affiliate you can qualify for matching prizes too!

Training Day on Sunday 14th June was a huge hit!

A huge thanks to everyone involved in helping to organise the VE Training – and WELL DONE to all those who attended - it really was a tremendous day.

The event itself was orchestrated by Gigi Field who managed to keep the day on track and on time, and with the help of Dave Butler and the amazing speakers; Gordon Bunker, Ian Taylor, Ken Radford and Malcolm Horsey, some great ideas and training were presented.  All the speakers shared their knowledge with great enthusiasm and everyone had plenty of opportunity to ask questions about each topic covered, which really helped to make the event relevant and interesting.

The idea of giving Affiliates who booked their ticket via the dedicated VE Training Day website was an inspired one, as it ensured the training was based on what Affiliates wanted to hear. So with that in mind the bulk of the day was focused on developing e-lottery online, which included training on the new Viral Data Capture page, and ideas of how to drive more traffic to your website.

Of course the importance of promoting e-lottery ‘offline’ was also on the agenda, and Malcolm Horsey did a brilliant training on how simple it is to promote your e-lottery business every single day, while out and about.  The reality is that both offline and online marketing work when promoting your business. When you look at how the achievers in the business promote their business it’s clear that it’s more about how much you do as opposed to what method you use.   e.g. Malcolm Horsey, who is a Senior Director and one of e-lotteries most successful Affiliates, mainly promotes his business offline, while Paul Marriott who is a Group Director, mainly focuses his time online. Paul E Watts who is also a Group Director focuses his efforts  about 80% online and 20% offline, so it’s very much down to each individual, because everything works, as long as you work consistently.

So, with a global market that is booming and a product that steps in front of the consumer with a smarter way to play, the potential is so enormous and untapped - it’s scary! Get to grips with the viral process, find ways to promote your website both nationally and globally, and this time next year you could be laughing all the way to the bank!!!

In my next instalment, I will give you some insight to the content of the day; so watch this space…..

Congratulations to last cycle’s Golden Ticket winners, scooping prizes including a flat screen TV, digital camera, Wii Fit, iPod Touch and portable Satellite Navigation system.

Last cycle’s lucky winners were:

Mr Dennis Baker from Australia               Ms Kathleen Burgess from UK

Mr John Dodds from UK                           Mr Maximilian Schwieger from Namibia

Mrs Diana Krieg from Australia

Well done, also, to the sole Affiliate Matching Prize winner, Carl Knight. There were, of course, 4 unlucky sponsors who missed out on Matching Prizes! Make sure you don’t miss out by qualifying for Matching Prizes – simply make sure you have 8 Golden Tickets per cycle, four of which must be from the Spanish Superdraws.

All of these lucky prize winners, and everyone else who has a Golden Ticket, will be entered into the mega prize draw at the end of the year, for the chance to win a BMW Mini. And don’t forget: the more tickets you have, the more likely you are to win this fantastic prize!

Essential Maintenance

From around 4am BST on Monday, 15th June 2009, we will be performing some essential system maintenance. This will mean that the e-lottery websites will be offline for approximately 4 hours. Please let everyone in your team know, to minimise any potential disruption. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

EuroMillions £50 Million Rollover

The EuroMillions has rolled over again, making the estimated jackpot a whopping £50 Million! Just imagine if your syndicate won - what would you do with your share?

Players and Prospects love rollovers, especially when they’re this big! So, make sure you get promoting this draw to everyone you meet so that your commissions grow!

If you’re not already playing in a EuroMillions syndicate, or if you would like to play in some extra syndicates to increase your chances even more, just log in to your Member’s Area, and click on the EuroMillions banner. Then just follow the instructions.

Make sure you complete this process before 6pm BST on Friday, 5th June (the night of the draw) to secure your place!

Good luck!

Spanish Superdraw Winnings Posted

Winnings have been posted in all Spanish Superdraw players’ Back Offices. To see how much your syndicate won in Saturday’s draw, just log in to your Member’s Website and click on ‘Winnings’ and then ‘Spanish Lottery Winnings’. As promised, all e-lottery syndicates have won at least 3 cash prizes in this draw.

Congratulations to you all!

Keep promoting these amazing draws to ensure that your commissions grow - syndicate places for the draw on Saturday, 4th July are now available. The prize fund will be an incredible €150 Million , so we don’t think that syndicate spaces for July’s draw will be available for long! Make sure that it is your Players and Prospects who snap up those syndicate spaces.

If you’re not already playing the Spanish Superdraws the smarter way, or if you are playing and would like to add more syndicate entries, log in to your Member’s Website and look for the banner below:

Remember - in order for you to receive any commissions generated from these draws you will need to achieve Active Status. Just generate £40 of Active Status Volume in the Spanish Superdraw syndicates. No matter which draw your Players have paid for, their subscriptions will count towards your Active Status in the current cycle.

Good luck for the next draw!

Upgrading Telephone System

We are currently updating our telephone system, and for a short period we will be unable to accept telephone calls. Please email any enquiries to admin@vwdmail.com. As soon as the new phone system is in place, we will post an announcement on the e-lottery blog.

Commission Posted

We are pleased to report that UK Lotto, EuroMillions and Spanish Superdraw commissions have now been posted in all Active Affiliates’ e-wallets. Log in now to check yours out!

Don’t miss out on potential commission

As the end of the current Business Cycle fast approaches (Sunday, 7th June) we just wanted to give you a quick reminder so that you can make sure you have qualified Active for your well-earned commissions.

In order to achieve Active Status you will need to generate £40 of Personal Group Volume from two different Personally Sponsored Players in whichever draws you are qualifying for commissions from. One of these Players can be you. For the Spanish Superdraw syndicates, you will need to generate £40 of PGV, as normal, regardless of which Superdraw the volume has been generated for.
