Tasks and objectives

BLIK technology is constantly developed in terms of new functions and security. At the same time, it undertakes activities aimed at promoting the BLIK system.

Motivation Direct delegated to us all IT-related tasks concerning the lottery. We were requested to design a website that would play the role of a fully automated system that performs specific tasks. First of all, it would act as a registration system for the new participants and verify the process of granting awards i.e. BLIK Cheques. In the end, it was necessary to include an automated feature to announce and notify the winners.

BLIKomania Lottery is one of the most popular financial lotteries in Poland with total value awards approx. 235 000 Euro.

The Ideo Software was also responsible for creating the lottery information website. In order to do so, we decided to go with Edito .NET Core, as it can easily support and integrate all interactive components on the website.

On our part, we launched and supported an integration process to enable lottery participants to digitally ‘cash out’ their BLIK cheques in ATMs or wire the funds via other channels. During the lottery, we stood guard to maintain the system and its integrated components ready and in proper operating order.

The following lottery organisation activities were the domain of Motivation Direct. They supervised drawing up the lottery’s terms and conditions and obtained a required licence. As well, they designed the drawing system rules, provided customer service for participants and the website.
