INTRODUCTION
2. These Direct Pay Subscription Terms, as amended or replaced from time to time by OLG, contain the terms and conditions that govern subscriptions for tickets for a Draw-Based Lottery Game Played Online made through Direct Pay in accordance with Section 5 of the Player Agreement (a “Direct Pay Subscription”). The Player Agreement, the OLG Rules Respecting iGaming Lottery Games (“iLottery Rules”), the applicable Lottery Game Rules, and the applicable tickets (as defined in the iLottery Rules) are hereby incorporated into and form part of these Direct Pay Subscription Terms. Any conflict or inconsistency between these Direct Pay Subscription Terms and any of the foregoing documents shall be resolved in accordance with Section 3 of the Player Agreement. Any capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Player Agreement.
3. By checking the “accept” box, a Player is confirming that they understand and agree to be bound by these Direct Pay Subscription Terms. If a Player does not agree with any of the terms and conditions of these Direct Pay Subscription Terms, the Player: (i) is not permitted to obtain a Direct Pay Subscription; and (ii) if the Player already has a Direct Pay Subscription, they must terminate their Direct Pay Subscription immediately in accordance with the Player termination process set out in Section 18.
4. OLG reserves the right to revise these Direct Pay Subscription Terms from time to time in such manner as OLG, in its sole discretion, determines to be appropriate. Material changes to Direct Pay Subscription Terms including but not limited to changes to Lottery Game Rules or price will result in the publication of updated Direct Pay Subscription Terms. In order to continue with the Direct Pay Subscription for that Draw-Based Lottery Game Played Online, Direct Pay Subscription Players must accept the revised Direct Pay Subscription Terms, failing which their Direct Pay Subscription will be cancelled and no further tickets will be purchased on their behalf.
5. A Direct Pay Subscription is associated with the Player Account through which it is initiated and cannot be assigned or transferred to or shared with any other person by the Player for any purpose.
METHOD OF PAYMENT FOR DIRECT PAY SUBSCRIPTION
6. A Player must use one of the following payment methods in accordance with Section 6 of the Player Agreement to subscribe to a Direct Pay Subscription (each, a “Payment Card”):
(a) Visa, MasterCard, or American Express credit card issued in Canada by a Canadian bank or financial institution, which the Player is an authorized user, as defined by the Canadian bank or financial institution, to use the Visa, MasterCard, or American Express credit card for such purpose;
(b) a Visa Debit card issued in Canada by a Canadian bank or financial institution, which the Player is an authorized user, as defined by the Canadian bank or financial institution, to use the Visa Debit card for such purpose; or
(c) a Debit Mastercard issued in Canada by a Canadian bank or financial institution, which the Player is an authorized user, as defined by the Canadian bank or financial institution, to use the Debit Mastercard for such purpose.
For certainty, a Player is not permitted to use Unutilized Funds nor Bonus Funds, in each case from their Player Account, to pay for a Direct Pay Subscription.
7. A Player may request to change the funding method for their Draw-Based Games Played Online subscription: (i) from a Direct Pay Subscription to Unutilized Funds and/or Bonus Funds associated with their Player Account; or (ii) vice versa, at any time. The next scheduled ticket purchase after the request will be attempted on the newly selected payment method. A Player may update their payment method through the “Manage Payment” link in the “Subscription Details” page associated with their Player Account. Following any update, the Player authorizes OLG to process payment through the updated payment method in accordance with these Direct Pay Subscription Terms.
8. OLG or its payment processing service providers may store Visa, MasterCard, or American Express credit card, Visa Debit card or Debit MasterCard (as applicable) information on servers located outside of Ontario, but within Canada. In addition, OLG and its payment processing service providers may use and disclose aggregated transaction information for various analytical purposes relating to their respective businesses (but not relating to a specific or identifiable Player). By using a payment method listed in Section 6(a) to (c) for a Direct Pay Subscription, the Player expressly consents to OLG or its payment processing service providers, or both, storing such transaction information located on servers located outside of Ontario, but within Canada and using and disclosing aggregated transaction information for the purposes described in this paragraph.
9. Each time OLG attempts to process a payment through the Payment Card selected by the Player for a Direct Pay Subscription, the Player represents and warrants to OLG that the Player has all necessary rights and authority to use such Payment Card for such purposes, including in circumstances in which the Payment Card is jointly held with one or more other persons or is held by a person other than the Player.
INITIATING A DIRECT PAY SUBSCRIPTION
10. In order to initiate a Direct Pay Subscription, payment for the ticket for the first draw of the Direct Pay Subscription must successfully be processed at the time of initiating the Direct Pay Subscription.

TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION OF A DIRECT PAY SUBSCRIPTION
14. Unless suspended or terminated in accordance with these Direct Pay Subscription Terms, a Player’s Direct Pay Subscription will remain active (subject to system availability):
(a) in the case of the “consecutive draw” option, for the number of draws designated by the Player (for example, if a Player designates ten draws for their Direct Pay Subscription and a ticket for the eighth draw in the sequence fails to be purchased because the Payment Card is not Funded, at that point the Player will be entitled to participate in three more draws as part of the Direct Pay Subscription in accordance with these Direct Pay Subscription Terms);
(b) in the case of the “never miss a draw” option, indefinitely.
