About Xeso
Every ticket is someone's afternoon.
Xeso helps visitors check a Vietnamese lottery ticket in seconds, and turns every ticket into a little more income for the people who sell them on the street.
Our impact, live
LiveWe're in beta, so the counters have just started. Check a ticket and you're part of the first numbers.
Counting since Fri, 9 Oct. Tickets and prizes come from checks made in Xeso, counted once per ticket. Tips and donations are reported by winners in My tickets. Seller income uses the 1,050₫ a seller keeps per ticket.
Our mission
No winning ticket left behind
Check any ticket from the South, Centre or North in seconds, in English, and know exactly where and when to cash it.
More money in sellers' hands
Most sellers are older, disabled or far from home, and earn about 1,050₫ a ticket. Buying from them, and tipping when you win, is the help that reaches them directly.
Give the luck back
Small wins add up. Winners can give a winning ticket to their seller today, and soon to selected associations in Vietnam. Every đồng is counted above.
Adopt a local habit
Xeso didn't invent this. Across southern Vietnam, many people buy a ticket with their morning coffee, as much to help the seller finish their stack as for the chance to win. Locals call it mua ủng hộ: buying to support.
Xeso simply invites visitors to join in. Buy from a street seller, check your ticket here, and if you win, share a little of that luck with the seller or a local association.
Good to know: tickets a seller can't sell before the draw are often theirs to absorb, so a ticket bought in the afternoon helps most.
Where your 10,000₫ goes
Lottery profits go to the province, mainly for schools and hospitals. The seller earns a fixed cut per ticket, so the way to help is simply to buy from them.
Giving back to Vietnam
Coming soonWe aim to redirect part of the winnings found through Xeso to selected associations in Vietnam, chosen for their work with street sellers and the people around them.
- You choose. Giving is always optional: keep your prize, tip your seller, or give part of it.
- Small wins, big sum. One ticket in 87 wins something. Together, those 100,000₫ prizes add up.
- Every đồng shown. What goes to each association will be counted live on this page.
We are selecting our first partner associations now. Their names and how giving works will appear here before the feature opens.
What Xeso is not
- A lottery seller. Xeso does not sell tickets, take bets or handle any money. You buy your tickets from street sellers, as always, and any tip goes from your hand to theirs.
- Linked to the lottery or the government. Xeso is an independent information service, not affiliated with any provincial lottery company or public authority.
- The official result. Results come from public draws and can be late or wrong. Only the lottery company's official results count: confirm any win with a seller or the lottery company before you throw a ticket away.
Made in Saigon
Xeso is an independent project built in Hồ Chí Minh City by people who buy their tickets from the same street sellers you do. It's in beta: if something is wrong or unclear, tell us and we'll fix it.
