Prize draw rules — The Green
Last updated 14 October 2026
Article 1 — Organiser
YLC NETWORK FZC, a free zone company incorporated under the laws of the United Arab Emirates, with its registered office at Business Centre, Sharjah Publishing City Free Zone, Sharjah, Émirats arabes unis, holding commercial licence no. 300641 issued by the Sharjah Publishing City Free Zone Authority (hereinafter "the Organiser"), organises a free monthly prize draw with no purchase necessary.
The promotion is accessible from thegreen.today and its signed-in area, under the trade names Play, Walk and Post, which designate three doors of a single account.
Article 2 — Participation
Participation is open to any natural person of legal age holding an account on the service, excluding persons involved in organising the promotion.
Participation is free and requires no purchase. Creating an account requires a valid email address and nothing else.
One entry per person. Multiple accounts held by the same person may be suspended, and any tickets arising from them cancelled.
Article 3 — Greens
Greens are a game unit with no monetary value. They cannot be bought, sold, transferred outside the service, or converted into any sum of money.
They are earned by playing: by taking on the daily challenges offered in the three doors, and by playing the games of chance described in article 4.
A single day earns at most twenty (20) greens through play, across all doors and all games. The three doors are three ways to fill one day, not three allowances. This cap is enforced by the service itself, which credits nothing beyond it.
Greens received from another participant at the end of a duel are governed by article 5 and are not counted towards this cap, which bounds what the service creates and not what participants exchange between themselves.
Article 4 — Games of chance
The service offers three games of chance: a scratch card, a lottery and a slot machine.
Participation in each of these games is limited to one (1) free play per day per person. There is no way to wager, to pay to play again, or to buy an additional play, in any form whatsoever. This limit is enforced by the service itself, which refuses the second play of the day.
The outcome of each play is drawn by the Organiser's server. The participant's browser does not know the outcome before it is determined and cannot influence it.
Any winnings from these games are greens, and they count towards the daily cap in article 3. These games give no ticket and do not improve the odds in the draw in any way.
Article 5 — Duels between participants
A participant may challenge another participant to a duel on the same game board, staking a number of greens between one (1) and five (5). The opponent who accepts stakes the same number. The winner receives the greens staked by both participants.
A duel creates no greens: it moves them from one account to another. The sum of all green movements arising from duels is zero, and the Organiser pays out nothing on that occasion.
No stake can be paid for or topped up with money, greens not being purchasable. A duel is not a bet in the sense of gambling: nothing staked was acquired against payment, and nothing won can be converted into money.
A duel gives no ticket. It may make the cap in article 7 easier to reach within the month, never higher.
Article 6 — How a ticket is obtained
Funding an environmental project from the list offered in the service spends one hundred (100) greens, records an impact and gives one (1) ticket for the current month's draw.
Finishing first in the daily ranking of a mini-game also gives one (1) ticket. The daily ranking of a mini-game includes every participant who played it between 00:00 and 24:00, Paris time, however they reached it; first place goes to the participant whose best score of the day is highest, that score being recomputed by the service in accordance with article 12. In the event of a tie, the participant who reached that score first wins.
Each night, for each mini-game, the previous day's first-placed participant receives an environmental impact funded by the Organiser — plastic pulled out of the ocean, evidenced by a certificate — and one (1) ticket for the draw of that day's month, within the cap in article 7: beyond it, the impact is granted without a ticket. They are informed by email and in their signed-in area.
A game played before having an account enters the daily ranking only once the account has been created and the game has been replayed by the service, no later than one hour after the game. No participation requires a purchase.
These are the only acts that give a ticket.
Other actions in the service produce real environmental impacts without giving a ticket: in particular, a plastic bottle pulled out of the ocean when a post reaches its heart threshold, or when a plant reaches its drop threshold. Those impacts are funded by the Organiser, require no spending of greens, and do not enter the draw.
Article 7 — Five tickets a month, for everyone
The number of tickets is capped at five (5) per calendar month per person, across all doors.
No purchase, no subscription and no payment of any kind gives an additional ticket or improves the odds. The subscription offered by the service multiplies the rate at which greens are earned through play by a factor of 1.25 to 2, depending on the tier: it makes the cap easier to reach within the month, never higher.
The same applies to duels: winning greens from another participant may make the cap easier to reach, never higher.
This cap is enforced by the service itself, which refuses the sixth ticket.
Article 8 — Prizes
Each monthly draw is endowed with 10 YLC gift cards, with a total commercial value of €1,428.00 incl. VAT (€1,190.00 excl. VAT), namely:
— 10 cards "1 month of Agency Pass (400 credits included)", each worth €142.80 incl. VAT (€119.00 excl. VAT).
A card's commercial value is the public price, including 20% French VAT, of what it contains: €119.00 excl. VAT per month of Agency Pass.
A month of Agency Pass given as a prize gives, like a paid month: access to the apps included in the Agency Pass, 400 YLC credits for the month, 119 boost codes and 119 plastic bottles removed from the ocean in the winner's name.
The prize pool is fixed when each draw opens, shown in the signed-in area, and is not changed during the month. A prize may not be exchanged, refunded, replaced by its cash value, or transferred to another account.
Article 9 — Date and conduct of the draw
The game officially starts on 1 November 2026. The first official draw, for the month of November 2026, takes place on 1 December 2026.
Earlier periods (September and October 2026) were test periods, without prizes: no prize is awarded or delivered for them. Tickets obtained in October 2026 are carried over to the first official draw on 1 December 2026, where they take part alongside November's; each still counts towards the cap in article 7 for the month in which it was obtained.
A month's draw is carried out on the first day of the following month, once the period has elapsed. A month in progress cannot be drawn.
The draw is carried out by an automated process among all valid tickets of the period. A ticket can win only once.
The scarcest prizes are allocated first, so that at equal chance the rarest prize has the same chance of reaching someone.
Article 10 — Verifiability of the draw
The Organiser retains the seed of the pseudo-random generator used for each draw.
That seed, together with the list of tickets for the period, makes it possible to replay the draw and obtain the same results. It is provided free of charge to anyone who requests it at the address given in article 16, within thirty (30) days of the request.
This undertaking is binding on the Organiser: "we drew lots" is not a verifiable statement, a retained seed is.
Article 11 — Notification and delivery of prizes
Winners are informed in their signed-in area, where the prize, the month and the winning ticket number are shown.
Each winner of a YLC gift card receives one card per winning ticket, as a unique code, sent by email to the address associated with the account and shown in their signed-in area.
The card is activated from the YLC account (account.ylcnetwork.com, "Gift card" page), by the winning account only, once, within 90 days of being sent. After that period the card expires and the prize is deemed forfeited.
On activation: if no Pass is running, the months of Pass start immediately; if a Pass given by an earlier card is running, they are added after it; if a paid Pass is running, the months of Pass are converted into YLC credits at their public price — 793 credits per month of Agency Pass.
A Pass given as a prize involves no payment and does not renew: it ends at its term, with nothing to do. If the winner subscribes to a paid Pass during the gifted period, the paid Pass takes precedence and the gifted period keeps running.
YLC credits are used in the apps of the YLC suite, under the service's terms of use. They are not refundable, not convertible into money and not transferable to another account. A month's unused credits do not carry over to the next month; extra credits and credits from a conversion remain yours for as long as the account exists.
If the email does not arrive, the code remains available in the signed-in area. The Organiser cannot be held liable for an email address that is wrong, full or unreachable.
Article 12 — Fraud
Any attempt to obtain greens other than by playing under the conditions set out in articles 3 to 5 — multiple accounts, automation, falsification of the data sent by a third-party service, collusion between participants to transfer greens through arranged duels — results in the cancellation of the tickets concerned and may result in the suspension of the account.
Challenge results are recomputed on the server. No value sent by the browser is accepted as a result, and the outcomes of the games of chance are drawn by the server.
Article 13 — Personal data
The data processed for the purposes of the promotion is that necessary for participation and for delivering prizes: email address, display name, tickets and winnings.
It is kept for as long as the promotion and the legal obligations arising from it require. The rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection and portability are exercised at the address given in article 16.
The service's privacy policy sets out all processing in full.
Article 14 — Amendment and cancellation
The Organiser may amend, suspend or cancel the promotion if circumstances so require, without incurring liability on that account.
An amendment gives rise to updated rules, published at the same address. Tickets already earned remain valid for the current period.
Article 15 — Acceptance
Participation entails full and unreserved acceptance of these rules.
The rules can be consulted free of charge and at any time on thegreen.today, and are sent free of charge to anyone who requests them at the address given in article 16.
Article 16 — Governing law and complaints
As the Organiser's registered office is located outside France, submitting this promotion to French law is a voluntary choice made by the Organiser for this promotion. These rules are governed by French law.
Any complaint relating to the draw must be sent to support@ylcnetwork.com, or by post to the registered office given in article 1, within thirty (30) days of the draw concerned. The Organiser replies within thirty (30) days.
Failing an amicable resolution, the participant may refer the matter to the European Consumer Centre of their country of residence, as well as to the national consumer protection authority they fall under. These remedies exist without any prior step by the Organiser.
Article 17 — Governing language
These rules are drafted in French. The versions in other languages published at the same address, including this one, are courtesy translations, provided for understanding.
In the event of any discrepancy between the versions, the French version prevails. Article 16 submits this promotion to French law by the Organiser's own choice, and rules that submit to a law are read in the language of that law.
This is the inverse of the rule that governs the terms of service and the privacy policy, which are drafted in English and governed by the law of the United Arab Emirates: each text is authoritative in the language of the law it answers to.
