Ottawa 67s

What Ottawa 67s does

The Ottawa 67s 50/50 is an electronic raffle program operated by the OSEG Foundation for the Ottawa 67s, a junior ice hockey team in the Ontario Hockey League founded in 1967. The program sells 50/50 raffle tickets during home games at TD Place in Ottawa and online through the dedicated e-commerce storefront 5050ottawa67s.com, restricted to participants physically located within Ontario at the time of purchase under AGCO Lottery Licence #RAF1538862. Half of gross ticket sales are returned to the winner as the jackpot prize, with the remainder directed to the OSEG Foundation's charitable mandate; pricing tiers range from 5 numbers for $10 to 500 numbers for $100, with a per-transaction cap of 10 ticket packs.

The underlying technology stack combines Canadian Bank Note's Event Management Terminal (EMT) — including electronic ticket checkers used by in-venue sellers — with a Shopify-powered e-commerce storefront for online sales, supplemented by an Auto Play subscription service and a 50/50 Membership add-on that automate recurring ticket purchases across future draws. Payment acceptance spans major credit and debit networks alongside digital wallets (Shop Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay), and browser-based geolocation verification enforces the Ontario-only eligibility rule. Marketing is conducted through the OSEG Foundation's digital ecosystem — a dedicated website, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram — combined with in-venue promotion during games.

The program's revenue model is a transactional 50/50 raffle with a defined prize pool, supported by subscription-based recurring purchases. The OSEG Foundation operates parallel 50/50 programs for the Ottawa REDBLACKS, Ottawa BlackJacks, Ottawa Charge, Rapid FC, and Atlético Ottawa under the same AGCO licence, indicating a portfolio approach to sports-adjacent charitable fundraising within a single venue operator (TD Place) and regulatory perimeter. The Ottawa 67s-specific operation is a non-profit charitable activity rather than a venture-scale business, with no disclosed revenue, funding rounds, or investor base.
