1. Collect
Want to score awesome prizes? Keep all the Raffle Cards you find to be automatically entered into the prize drawing for the Raffle Card you found.

Want to battle your way to the top prize? Collect five (5) Raffle Cards of the same type and trade them to Event Organizer Gatto for one (1) Raffle Card of the next level prize. Example: Redeem five (5) [In-Game Prize Pack Raffle Cards] for one (1) [ICE Cash Raffle Card].

3. Redeem
Feel you have enough Raffle Cards? Redeem your Raffle Card for special Boost Balloon items that give a boost to your character’s statistics. The higher the prize level of the Raffle Card you redeem, the better the Boost Balloon’s bonuses! Note: Once a Raffle Card is redeemed for a Boost Balloon it is NOT eligible for the prize raffle.
