In November 1977, the Government of Québec, through Loto-Québec, entrusted the exclusive sale of lottery subscriptions to non-profit organizations (NPOs) through the Lotomatique subscription service.

Lotomatique is a service that enables individuals or groups to subscribe to different lotteries operated by Loto-Québec, and in so doing, help finance NPOs at no extra charge. Subscriptions are sold by more than 1,400 accredited organizations [PDF Format, in French only, 119 KB - Help, last update
