Frequently asked questions
Everything players ask most often about 5/90.
What is 5/90?
It is a numbers game of chance played daily. Five numbers are drawn at random from 1 to 90, and players choose their own numbers to match them. Because five balls come out of ninety, the game is called 5/90.
How long does the campaign run?
The game runs every day of the week. The Noon Rush draw takes place at 1:30 PM and the Original 5/90 evening draw at 8:00 PM, with Sunday Aseda drawn at 6:00 PM on Sundays.
Do I need to install anything to play?
No. You play at a retailer counter: give them your picks and your money, and they print the ticket for you. Nothing has to be installed on your phone.
Who can play?
Anyone aged 18 or over who has a Mobile Money account registered in their own name on an MTN, Telecel or AirtelTigo line in Ghana.
Can I play on the web or in this app?
Yes. Create an account with your name, phone number, password and nationality, top up your wallet, then pick a game type and stake. Every ticket and its reference is saved in your dashboard.
How much does it cost to play?
The minimum stake is GHS 0.50 and the maximum is GHS 200.00 per combination. Perm games multiply that by the number of combinations, and a single ticket may not exceed GHS 200.00 in total.
Is it free to play?
Yes. The only cost is the stake you choose to play.
How do I know if I have won?
Results are published on the Draw Results page as soon as each draw is completed. Any winning ticket is settled automatically and the money is credited to your wallet straight away.
How and where do I claim a prize?
You do not need to claim anything. Winnings are credited to your playing wallet automatically, and you can cash out to your Mobile Money wallet at any time.
Do I need to claim a prize immediately after winning?
No. Your winnings stay in your wallet until you choose to cash them out.
Can I cancel a ticket?
Only a ticket that has not been paid for yet can be cancelled, and only before the draw closes. Once a payment is approved the stake is final.
What happens if a draw cannot take place?
If a draw is cancelled or cannot go ahead, every valid stake on it is refunded to your wallet in full.
What is Banker?
Banker plays one number you choose against the remaining 89 numbers. It is one of the simplest games: if your banker is one of the five winning balls, the stake pays x960.
Why did my Perm ticket cost more than the stake I chose?
A Perm ticket splits your selection into combinations, and each combination is staked separately. Perm 2 on three numbers gives three combinations, so a GHS 1.00 stake per combination costs GHS 3.00 in total. The sheet always shows the total before you pay.
Can I get the game messages stopped?
This is not a subscription game, so there is nothing to opt out of.
Is my money safe?
All transactions are encrypted and every balance change is written to an audit ledger you can review in your dashboard. Access to your phone is your responsibility, so keep your Mobile Money PIN secret.
I need help with a ticket.
Quote the ticket code printed at the foot of your ticket to the retailer who sold it to you. They can trace the bet from their counter straight away.
Your ticket code appears at the bottom of every printed ticket. Quote it to whoever sold it to you, and they can trace the bet from there.
