Rewards+ Members Are Winning BIG!

Since launching in November, Rewards+ has proven one thing beyond any doubt: subscribing to the Thunder Bay 50/50 pays off. In just a few short months, 31 Thunder Bay 50/50 Early Bird winners who were subscribed through Rewards+ have each received an additional $1,000 Rewards+ benefit on top of their prize — putting a ton of extra cash into the hands of loyal supporters who made the simple decision to never miss a draw.

That's real money, awarded to real people, for doing nothing more than staying subscribed.

How Rewards+ Works

The concept is straightforward. When you subscribe to the Thunder Bay 50/50, you're automatically enrolled in Rewards+. Every month, your tickets are purchased and entered into every draw — every Early Bird and the Grand Prize — without you having to lift a finger. And here's where it gets exciting: if your ticket number is drawn for an Early Bird prize while you're a Rewards+ subscriber, you don't just win the listed prize. You win an extra $1,000 on top of it. A $2,500 Early Bird becomes $3,500. A $5,000 Early Bird becomes $6,000. A $10,000 Early Bird becomes $11,000. Every single time.

There's no special code to enter, no bonus draw to opt into, and no extra cost. The additional $1,000 is applied automatically to every Early Bird prize won by a subscriber. It's our way of saying thank you for your continued support of the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre.

Travelling? No problem: Thunder Bay 50/50 subscribers will automatically receive their tickets each month regardless of if you're physically present in Ontario at the time it renews. Snowbirds, avid travelers and supporters who are always on the go no longer have to worry about purchasing tickets each month.

Never Miss a Draw, Never Miss a Chance to Win

Life gets busy. Between work, family, travel, and everything else pulling at your attention, remembering to buy lottery tickets every month is easy to let slip. And in a lottery where new Early Bird draws happen throughout the month, a missed purchase means missed opportunities — sometimes dozens of them.

Rewards+ eliminates that problem entirely. Your subscription ensures your numbers are live for every single draw, from the very first Early Bird of the month right through to the Grand Prize. You're always in, always eligible, and always earning that Rewards+ benefit on any Early Bird win. No last-minute scrambles before a deadline, no kicking yourself when you realize a draw happened without you. Just consistent, automatic entries month after month.
