In early 1995, executives of London Mall, a British software developer conceived the idea of an Internet lottery.
A license to run a fixed odds Internet lottery, without international marketing restrictions, was obtained from the Liechtenstein government.
The first Interlotto draw took place at the Köfferli bar in the quaint capital of Vaduz, Liechtenstein on the Saturday evening of 7 October 1995.
Caroline Burdet, Liechtenstein's first Olympic bobsledder, drew the winning six numbers for what is billed as the first nationally sanctioned lottery on the Internet.
The license was highly regulated, with government appointed auditors (Thöny Treuhand AG, Vaduz) auditing the ILLF books of account and overseeing all aspects of the operations including scrutinization of lottery pre-draw and draw procedures.
Liechtensteinische Landesbank AG, a AAA rated bank, is predominately owned by the Principality of Liechtenstein.
All the lottery sites in the ILLF network set aside a portion of revenue to fund causes in Liechtenstein and around the world.
All sites now redirect to the main ILLF home page, discussing the reasons for the filing of bankruptcy.
55545789 The 6/49 lottery draw was conducted every Friday at ILLF's studio in Liechtenstein and is scrutinized by an auditor from Thöny Treuhand AG, Vaduz.
After the draw an independent program is run by the auditor and the results compared to the database to verify that the data is correct and there are no errors.
The draw took place in Liechtenstein every Wednesday at 11h00 CET but occasionally, due to a "Must be Won Jackpot" feature of the LBO game, could occur earlier.
