LOTTERY TICKET SAFETY MEASURES

The Risaralda Lottery tickets count on safety measures to guarantee the betting public that the forging and alteration of them cannot be done in a simple way and therefore it would require state of the art technology and complete knowledge of the assigned characteristics to them so that an illicit act can be carried out with the tickets.

For knowledge of the betting public and the community at large, below you'll find some of the safety measures of our tickets, so that the knowledge of them will allow you in some cases verify the authenticity of the tickets you are buying.

1. Anti-color Design:

In the obverse there is a design with anti-photo and numismatic characteristics, elaborated through the use of special equipment and consistent with the designs of figures conformed by millimetric curved lines and parallel among themselves, which because of its great number they cannot be photographed singularly..

2. Thermo-reactive  ink design:

In the front view of each fraction there is an area for the printing of a thermo-chromatic or thermo-reactive ink that presents variations in its shade when
It's rubbed.

3. Numbering:

The tickets are numbered with four (4) digits in the front view from 0000 to 9999, with 110 series numbered form 00 to 109 and 10,000 tickets per series, the numbering is in letters and also written in forms of pairs of digits, plus numbering with bar codes type EAN/UCC128, date of the draw, price of the ticket and the fraction, business name of the distributor, address and telephone number.

4. Algorithm:

An algorithm of seven (7) characters was formed; these are different for each one of the tickets and its respective fractions, guaranteeing that there is not duplicity when assigning them. With this safety it is merely impossible to generate a second ticket similar to one original printed by the contractor.

5. Bar code

In the frontal view of each of the fractions there is a printed international standard bar code denominated EAN/UCC-128, according to technical specifications of the National Health Superintendent's office. This code has information about the number of the draw, ticket, series, and fraction numbers, as well as the assigned code by the "SUPERSALUD" to the Risaralda Lottery, and a space for the distributor agent.

6. Safety micro text:

The tickets have high letter concentration micro lineal text with good definition and difficult to reproduce photo-mechanically. This micro text appears to form a line and only with a magnifying glass or a similar instrument, can its content be detected. The micro texts were made in a way that they form the boxes where the bar codes, numbers and series are found.

7. Secondary safety codes:

In the right and left side of each fraction, there are printed bar codes generated by an algorithm that has the drawing number, ticket number, series and fraction as a base.

8. Safety background:

In the background of the box where the ticket number and series are found, there is a variable text design in color that avoids superimposing or grafting digits in the event of an adulteration.

9. Safety micro-numbers:

In the frontal view of the tickets micro-numbers that contain information about the ticket number and series, the draw number, and one special that contains all the information about draw date and number, series, fraction and a control digit.

10. Embossed and hatched text:

In the back side of the tickets a variable embossed and hatched text has been printed, with the draw date, production date and the fraction identification. This text is difficult to reproduce photo-mechanically, due to its hatching it requires more ink intensity in the event of being copied, generating a total distorted print.
