Cancel Lottogo: The Right Way
How to cancel lottogo in south africa: your step-by-step guide to getting out safely
What lottogo is and how it works
Lottogo is an online lottery subscription service that automates ticket purchases for international lotteries on your behalf. Instead of manually buying tickets for each draw, you set up a subscription, and Lottogo handles the purchasing automatically until you decide to stop.
How the service operates
You create an account, select the lotteries you want to play, choose your subscription options, and Lottogo purchases tickets for each draw cycle. Your subscriptions and ticket records live in your user account on the Lottogo website or mobile app, making management straightforward.
Why people cancel
Common reasons for cancellation include changing financial circumstances, wanting to stop gambling expenditure, dissatisfaction with odds or payouts, or simply losing interest in lottery play. Whatever your reason, Stopee understands that cancelling should be simple and transparent.
Your consumer rights in south africa
The cooling-off period and lottery tickets
South Africa's Consumer Protection Act grants you a 14-day cooling-off period for unsolicited or remote purchases. However, this protection has a critical limitation: confirmed and paid lottery tickets are typically treated as final sales and fall outside this right. Once your ticket is purchased and a draw date is set, refund eligibility becomes discretionary rather than automatic.
When to escalate complaints
If Lottogo refuses a legitimate refund request or fails to respond to your cancellation, you have escalation options. Document all your communications, transaction records, and cancellation attempts. If the company ignores your request, lodge a formal complaint with the National Consumer Commission (NCC), South Africa's independent authority for consumer disputes. The NCC investigates breaches of the Consumer Protection Act and can compel companies to take action. Stopee recommends keeping copies of all emails and account screenshots to support any formal complaint.
How to cancel lottogo step by step
Where and how to cancel
All cancellations happen online through your Lottogo account. There is no postal address, physical office, or phone line for cancellations. You must use the website or mobile app to manage your subscriptions directly. This entirely online process means you can cancel instantly from anywhere in South Africa.
The cancellation process
- Log in to your Lottogo account using your email and password.
- If you've forgotten your password, use the "Forgot password" link on the login page.
- Check your email for the reset link and follow the prompts.
- Navigate to the "My Bets & Tickets" section from your account dashboard.
- This section displays all your active and past lottery subscriptions.
- Locate and select "Manage Subscriptions."
- You will see a list of all active lottery bets or ticket subscriptions.
- Cancel each active subscription individually.
- Click the cancel button next to each active lottery.
- Read any confirmation message about billing cycles and timing.
- Confirm your cancellation when prompted.
- The system will ask you to verify that you want to cancel.
- Click "Confirm" or the final submit button to complete the action.
- Check your email for a cancellation confirmation.
- Lottogo typically sends a confirmation email within minutes.
- Save this email as proof of cancellation.
Pro tip: If you have multiple subscriptions active, cancel them one at a time and wait for each confirmation before moving to the next. This prevents confusion and ensures you have clear proof of each cancellation.
Warning: Do not assume your subscription is cancelled just because you've clicked a button. Wait for the email confirmation. Lottogo may still charge you for draws that occur before the cancellation is fully processed if you skip this step.
Getting help from lottogo support
If the cancellation buttons don't appear in your account or the process fails, contact Lottogo support directly via live chat or email through your account. Stopee advises you to document the issue: take screenshots showing what you're seeing, note the exact time and date you tried to cancel, and save all support correspondence. This documentation becomes critical if you need to escalate to the National Consumer Commission later.
What happens after you cancel
Timing and your final bill
Cancellation takes effect only after the current paid-for draw week or cycle completes. Your subscription does not stop immediately; billing continues through the end of the cycle you've already paid for. You remain covered for all draws that fall within the period you've already paid, and no charges occur after that cycle ends. This means if you cancel mid-week, you may still be charged for draws happening until the end of that week.
Your account and data after cancellation
Your Lottogo account and complete play history typically remain available after cancellation unless you request full account deletion. You can still view past tickets, results, and any winnings. However, winning procedures and prize verification remain subject to Lottogo's terms and conditions. If you have a pending win that requires verification, cancelling your subscription does not affect your eligibility to claim it, but verify this with support before cancelling large amounts.
Pro tip: If you want to delete your entire account and personal data, send a separate data deletion request to Lottogo support. This is different from cancelling your subscription and gives you more privacy control under South African data protection law.
Refunds: what you can expect
The standard refund policy
Lottogo generally does not refund lottery tickets once they are purchased. Lottery tickets are treated as final sales, similar to raffle tickets or any other gambling product. This means if you've paid for a ticket and the draw has already occurred, a refund is unlikely under normal circumstances, even if you did not win.
When refunds may be possible
Refunds or withdrawal of prepaid funds are only considered for limited, specific reasons, such as:
- Compliance failures (e.g., anti-money laundering checks that prevent you from playing).
- Technical errors where you were incorrectly charged twice or more for the same draw.
- Account suspension due to fraud investigation (though your funds may be held during review).
How to request a refund
Cancel your subscription immediately, then contact Lottogo support via live chat or email with your request. Explain your reason clearly, reference your account number, and include the specific draw dates or charges in question. Keep in mind that approval is discretionary, and Lottogo is not legally obligated to refund lottery tickets. However, if you believe the refusal violates your consumer rights, you can escalate to the National Consumer Commission. Stopee recommends always requesting a refund in writing (email) so you have proof of your request and their response.
Warning: Do not expect a refund for tickets purchased for future draws. If you cancel before a draw occurs, the ticket has already been bought and your cancellation prevents future tickets from being purchased, but does not reverse past purchases.
Pricing, plans, and what lottogo costs
Current pricing in south africa
No public subscription pricing for Lottogo in South Africa for 2024/2025 could be verified. Lottogo appears to have reduced or ceased active operations in South Africa, and example prices are not openly displayed on any accessible website. Pricing was historically variable based on lottery choice and subscription frequency.
How to find out what you're paying
| Information type | How to find it | When you'll see it |
|---|---|---|
| Your current subscription cost | Check your Lottogo account billing section | Before each charge |
| Upcoming draw charges | My Bets & Tickets or account statements | When you log in |
| Historical charges | Account statements or transaction history | After payment is processed |
| Pricing queries | Lottogo support via live chat or email | Within 24-48 hours |
Log into your account regularly to see exactly what you're being charged. If you're unsure why a charge occurred, Stopee advises contacting support before cancelling; understanding your billing helps you decide whether cancellation is the right move.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancellation is emotional, and mistakes happen
Cancelling a subscription can feel frustrating, especially if you've had a poor experience with payouts or customer service. In that emotional moment, it's easy to skip steps or assume the process is complete. Stopee has helped thousands of consumers navigate cancellations, and we know these mistakes cost time and money.
The top cancellation mistakes
- Assuming cancellation is instant: It is not. Your current draw cycle completes, and you may be charged once more. Log back in after 24-48 hours to confirm the cancellation status.
- Cancelling only one lottery instead of all: If you have multiple active lotteries, you must cancel each one individually. Check the full list before you finish.
- Not saving your confirmation email: This is your proof. Without it, you cannot prove to support or a dispute authority that you cancelled when you say you did.
- Deleting your account instead of just cancelling: Account deletion is permanent and may remove your ability to claim outstanding winnings. Cancel first, verify all winnings are settled, then request deletion if you want it.
- Expecting an immediate refund: Refunds are discretionary for lottery tickets. Cancelling stops future charges but does not refund past draws.
- Ignoring a failed cancellation button: If the cancel button doesn't work or disappears, do not assume you're cancelled. Contact support immediately to confirm the technical issue and complete the cancellation manually.
Pro tip: Screenshot your active subscriptions list before you cancel. If Lottogo disputes whether you had an active subscription, you have visual proof.

Deciding whether to cancel lottogo
Reasons to cancel
You should cancel if you are no longer interested in lottery play, cannot afford the subscription, feel the odds do not justify the cost, want to stop gambling-related spending, or are dissatisfied with Lottogo's customer service or payout speed. Cancellation is your right, and you owe no explanation to the company.
Reasons to pause and reconsider
Before you cancel, check whether you have any outstanding winnings awaiting verification. If you cancel and your account is deleted, you may lose the ability to claim future payouts linked to those tickets. Additionally, if you enjoy the convenience of automatic ticket purchasing and simply want to reduce spending, consider reducing the number of active subscriptions or the frequency of draws rather than cancelling completely.
Stopee recommends a straightforward approach: if you're sure you want to stop, cancel immediately. Do not delay, as subscription charges continue to accumulate.
Next steps and getting support
If your cancellation is not working
If you cannot find the cancel button, the button does not respond, or you receive an error message, contact Lottogo support immediately. Use the live chat or email option available in your account. Document the exact error, the time you encountered it, and any screenshots. Provide this information to support and request manual cancellation of your subscription.
If lottogo refuses to cancel or refund
If Lottogo ignores your cancellation request or refuses a refund you believe you are entitled to, escalate your complaint to the National Consumer Commission. You can file a complaint online at www.ncc.org.za or contact them for guidance on your specific situation. Include all documentation: emails, screenshots, transaction records, and your cancellation request. The NCC investigates on your behalf and can order Lottogo to comply with consumer protection laws. Stopee encourages you to use this resource; it exists to protect you.
