Fortune favours the generous

Fortune Fund is Otto’s way of bringing generosity into the spotlight. Every time you donate, you’re supporting real-world impact through trusted Kiwi charities.

And as a little thank you, you’ll go in the draw to win a cash prize. It’s our way of making giving feel a little more exciting and a lot more rewarding. There’s no cost beyond your donation, and no strings attached.

Just a simple idea: when people give, good things happen for everyone.

How do I access Fortune Fund?

You need an Otto account to access Fortune Fund. It's quick (and free!) to create an account. As soon as you've signed up, you'll see Fortune Fund on Otto's home page.

Who runs Fortune Fund?

Fortune Fund is run by the Otto Charitable Trust (NZBN 9429052829192).

Donations are made directly to a trust account at the Bank of New Zealand (BNZ).

Where do my donations go?

Donations are made directly to a trust account at the Bank of New Zealand (BNZ). They are then distributed by the Otto Charitable Trust on a monthly basis.

How are donations allocated?

The current split is:

  • 50% donated to charity
  • 30% allocated to prize draws
  • 20% trust administration and supporting activities

These are likely to change over time as Fortune Fund grows, and we'll always keep you updated when that happens.

Which charity am I donating to?

A new charity receives donations each month. Each Fortune Fund draw display the charity we are currently supporting as a community. In the future, you'll also be able to vote on which charities to support in upcoming draws.

Please note that Otto Charitable Trust is focused exclusvely on registered New Zealand charities (however there are many, many good causes to pick from!).

How do entries work?

Every $1 donated equals 1 entry. Only donations confirmed by the closing of the current draw are eligible. If a donation misses the draw deadline, it will automatically roll forward into the next available draw.

The maximum donation per user per month is $100. You can view total donations, prize amounts, entries, and draw open/close times directly in Otto.

What’s the difference between pledging and confirming my donation?

When you pledge a donation, it isn’t counted until your payment is received and reconciled by the Otto Charitable Trust. The payment reference you provide must match what’s shown in Otto for your donation to be confirmed. Once confirmed, your ticket updates and your entries are locked in.

How are winners chosen?

Winners are selected randomly using a logged fair draw process. There may be one or more winners depending on the size of the prize pool. Prizes are a bonus — the primary purpose of Fortune Fund is to support New Zealand charities.

What new features are coming?

We’re working on features like quests, round-ups, automated participation, and other ways to make giving easier and more rewarding. If you have any cool suggestions, let us know!

Is Fortune Fund a registered charity?

The Otto Charitable Trust is an incorporated charitable trust (NZBN 9429052829192). We are not yet a registered charity, however we have applied for registration with Charities Services and will provide updates as that process progresses.
