New here? These five steps and the questions below cover the prize, the entry cost, the payment process, and how the draw works.
Enter your email and your unique ticket number is emailed straight to you, along with payment instructions. You don’t pay anything yet — the number arrives in your inbox.
Send a $150 Interac e-Transfer to etransfer@101010cashauction.com and put your ticket number in the message field, so your payment is matched to the right entry.
Once your payment is matched, your entry is confirmed and assigned to the next available draw. Every draw holds exactly 10 confirmed entries — when the 10th is confirmed, the list locks and a 10-minute countdown begins.
The locked list of ticket numbers is submitted to RANDOM.ORG’s Third-Party Draw Service. The winning ticket is recorded and displayed on the completed draw record.
The winning ticket is paid a $1000 cash prize by Interac e-Transfer within 10 minutes of the certified draw.
Winner selection happens independently of our website, through RANDOM.ORG’s certified service. Once a draw fills, the participant list is locked before selection so nothing can be added or swapped. Every completed draw is archived with participant records, timestamps, and winner information, so anyone can review it afterward rather than take our word for it.
101010 Cash Auction is a 10-player cash draw designed to be simple, transparent, and easy to understand. Each participant purchases an entry for $150. Once 10 entries have been confirmed, the draw is locked and a winner is selected using RANDOM.ORG’s Third-Party Draw Service.
You’ll receive up to four emails:
Send exactly $150 by Interac e-Transfer to etransfer@101010cashauction.com and put your ticket number in the message field. That’s what matches your payment to your entry and confirms it.
RANDOM.ORG is an independent random number service that generates true random numbers using atmospheric noise. We selected RANDOM.ORG because we wanted winner selection to occur independently of our website systems. Learn about RANDOM.ORG and atmospheric noise
When a draw reaches 10 confirmed entries, the participant list is locked. The confirmed ticket numbers are submitted for certified random selection through RANDOM.ORG. The winning ticket is then recorded and displayed on the completed draw record.
Every draw is published as its own public record on RANDOM.ORG’s own site at draws.random.org — not ours. You can open your draw’s record and see the exact list of entered ticket numbers and the winning ticket, hosted independently of us. Because the record lives on RANDOM.ORG’s servers, no one at 101010 can change it after the fact. Check any draw yourself with the verification widget built into the get a ticket page.
Winning prizes are sent by Interac e-Transfer within 10 minutes of the certified draw.
If your Interac e-Transfer doesn’t match a valid entry — wrong amount, or a missing or incorrect ticket number — it can’t be confirmed and your entry won’t go through. Your payment is not returned automatically: to get your Interac e-Transfer back you’ll need to complete our failed entry form. So double-check that you’ve sent exactly $150 with your exact ticket number in the Interac e-Transfer message field.
It stays valid until your payment is confirmed — there is no time limit and it does not expire. Send your $150 Interac e-Transfer whenever you are ready, with your ticket number in the message field. As soon as your payment is matched to it you are entered into the next draw, and we email you to confirm.
Start with a ticket number, follow the Interac e-Transfer instructions, and track your draw from confirmation to completion.
