- Users report: Aggressive third-party subscription prompts trigger scam accusations, which erodes brand trust and limits long-term user lifetime value.
The SWOT
- Historical archive depth functions as a reference moat
- Customizable notification triggers drive daily engagement
- Integrate official state-sanctioned ticket scanning
- Pivot from third-party ad redirects to affiliate-based lottery ticket sales
