Where does the unclaimed money go?
Fifty per cent of unclaimed prize money is returned to South Australia's hospitals (or State recreation and sport if derived from The Pools). The other fifty per cent is 
used by SA Lotteries to fund increased prize pool offers, prizes in special promotions, and ex gratia prize payments.
