Postcode Lottery Group continues its remarkable trajectory of growth, further solidifying its position as one of the world’s largest private charity donors. In 2024, the Group surpassed expectations, achieving a total ticket sales turnover of €2.7 billion – a 7.7% increase from the previous year – demonstrating sustained growth across all its lotteries.

This success translates into an unprecedented €969 million in charitable funding, directly benefiting 440 long-term charity partners and thousands of community initiatives worldwide.

Since its foundation in 1989, the Group has raised an extraordinary €14.5 billion for good causes, creating a lasting impact across Europe and beyond.

With over 14.8 million subscriptions across five countries (currently the Netherlands, Great Britain, Sweden, Germany, and Norway) our unique lotteries serve as a fun, safe, and impactful form of community fundraising. Every month, our players ensure that vital resources reach those in need, acting as a force for good by strengthening communities and creating a better future. Neighbours win together, and communities locally and around the globe benefit from charity funding. This is what we call The Power of Postcodes: bringing people together to spread joy, brighten days, and change lives near and far.

Independent and reliable funding for a changing world
Postcode Lottery Group provides charities with stable, long-term and unrestricted funding, empowering them to focus on what truly matters: creating positive change. As an independently operated private company, owned by a foundation, we ensure consistent support through a trust-based approach. This allows charities the flexibility to adapt, take an entrepreneurial approach and invest in strategic planning and infrastructure, ensuring they can respond effectively and sustainably to the world’s most pressing issues.

Making a difference when it matters
From climate action to responding to humanitarian crises, to supporting local community groups, the Postcode Lottery Group remains committed to supporting good causes and raising awareness of their impact. With 440 charity partners, we stand together, empowering civil society and ensuring that support reaches organisations and people facing the greatest challenges. As we continue to grow, so does our positive impact, bringing hope, support, and opportunities to communities worldwide.

Investing to grow
The ambition of the Postcode Lottery Group is to raise the highest possible amount of funding for good causes annually and in the long term. This requires constant innovation and investment in our brand and format. As a socially responsible operator with a safe game, we look to grow the overall lottery market in order to benefit society by supporting a wide range of charitable causes. With research showing huge potential for charity lottery fundraising, we look to continuing to invest and further increasing our support for charities large and small, local and national.
