•For Lottery games, Net Revenue is calculated as: The price of real money plays - The player's winnings from those plays - The cost of acquiring a draw ticket in the source lottery or securing a draw jackpot - A fixed percentage of 4% of the price of plays, which is equivalent to the banking costs that Clobet Limited incurs.
