Types of trade promotions
A business conducting a trade promotion must know what kind of trade promotion they are conducting so that it complies with the relevant lottery laws and regulations in each state and territory.
There are two types of trade promotions:
- Games of skill. These are competitions where there is no element of chance in the competition. An example is where a winner is chosen against set criteria such as their answer to a predetermined question. Games of skill may involve estimating a number or weight, submitting a description of an item or activity or describing or stating reasons for liking something. Skill may also include any event that is judged by people qualified in a field relevant to the event or competition. Examples include:
-
- “In 25 words or less tell us why you should win ….”.
- “Describe your dream holiday”.
- “Submit a photograph that best describes …”.
-
Games of skill do not require permits in any Australian jurisdiction and are not otherwise subject to lottery laws and regulations because they are not considered “lotteries” (although they must comply with terms and conditions, advertising codes, Australian Consumer Law and the Privacy Act.
- Game of chance. Games of chance are trade promotions where an element of chance or probability determines the winner(s). Even if only an aspect of the promotion involves chance, the trade promotion will be considered to be a game of chance.
Permits are required to be obtained to conduct games of chance in some jurisdictions, and in others, games of chance must comply with mandatory regulatory requirements. For further information.
A business should choose the trade promotion which best promotes its products or suits its business needs and capability. For example, a game of chance may be preferred because it may attract a higher number of entrants. A game of skill may be preferred if the trade promotion is conducted on social media and the promoter does not have time to await approval and permits in every jurisdiction where that is required.

Key requirements for trade promotions
There are certain requirements that are common to trade promotions involving an element of chance in almost all jurisdictions. All jurisdictions (other than Tas) impose requirements in relation to all or most of the following:
- Whether a permit or authority is required or a threshold as to when a permit or authority is required. For further information, see When will a permit or authority be required?
- The cost of entry, which must be free (or in Vic, must not exceed $1.00).
It is, however, permissible for a person to purchase a genuine product or service at retail price in order to be eligible to enter.
There are also capped charges for SMS or premium telephone entries in most jurisdictions, and prohibitions against requiring an entrant to call using such a service on more than one occasion.
- Entrants must have a fair and equal chance of winning.
- The trade promotion must genuinely promote the business’ goods or services.
- Prizes. For further information about prize prohibitions and restrictions in each jurisdiction.
- How the prize draw must be conducted. For further information, see Prize draw requirements.
- How winners must be notified and whether results must be published. For further information,.
- Time frames within which prizes must be delivered. For further information.
- What action can be taken with respect to unclaimed prizes, and when. For further information.
- What records associated with the trade promotion must be kept, and for how long. For further information.
- What details must be included in the terms and conditions of entry, as well as in any advertising of the promotion.
When will a permit or authority be required?
A permit to conduct a trade promotion will be required if:
- The trade promotion involves an element of chance. For the difference between games of chance and games of skill.
- The lottery laws in a particular jurisdiction require a permit to be obtained.
If a trade promotion is being conducted on social media or the internet it will transcend traditional state boundaries, and will likely require compliance with the regulations of each state or territory.
States and territories in Australia either:
- Do not require permits to be obtained for trade promotions at all, but are nonetheless subject to mandatory conditions specified in state regulations (Vic, Qld, WA, Tas).
- Employ minimum prize pool or other threshold requirements before a permit or authority is required (NSW, SA, ACT and NT).
