Goodsluck: Platform Features and Compliance Statement

Why Goodsluck Is Not a Gambling Platform

Last Updated: June 19th 2025

Overview

Goodsluck is a social commerce platform that enables users to buy, sell, and contribute toward goods in a community-powered marketplace. The platform includes optional, randomized mechanics to enhance fairness, visibility, and engagement — but none of these features involve monetary risk, wagering, or chance-based profit. Goodsluck does not operate as a gambling service.

Key Definitions and Clarifications

What Is Gambling (Legally)?

Most regulatory bodies define gambling using these three criteria:

  1. Consideration – paying something of value (e.g., money),
  2. Chance – a random element determines the outcome,
  3. Prize – something of value is won as a result.

If all three are present, the activity may qualify as gambling.

Why Goodsluck Does Not Qualify

1. Consideration

Users may contribute money or make No-Purchase-Necessary (NPN) contributions to help close a deal or boost a listing — but these contributions are voluntary and do not constitute payment for a chance to win money.

2. Chance

Randomization is used to:

  • Select which user can finalize a contributed deal,
  • Select jury members in dispute resolution,
  • Trigger occasional promotional events (like the “goodsluck string”).

These functions enhance transparency and engagement — but they do not determine monetary winnings.

3. Prize

There is no cash prize or payout from the platform based on chance. All money flows through real sales of real goods. If a deal is not completed, user contributions are refunded.

About Tokens

Goodsluck users may receive Glitches and Glorions — internal tokens that:

  • Cannot be bought or exchanged for money,
  • Are non-transferable and usable only within the platform for boosts, upgrades, or feature enhancements,
  • Are not cryptocurrencies, securities, or financial instruments under any applicable law.

Marketplace-First Revenue Model

Goodsluck generates revenue exclusively from completed product sales. The platform does not profit from randomization features, user contributions, or participation in any selection processes. This revenue model aligns with and supports compliance with anti-gambling, anti-sweepstakes, and consumer protection laws.

Legal Assurance

Goodsluck is committed to:

  • Operating in full compliance with applicable local, state, and federal laws;
  • Cooperating with regulatory authorities to ensure transparency and accountability;
  • Clearly educating users about what the platform does and does not offer.

Should any regulatory concerns arise, Goodsluck is prepared to demonstrate — with documentation and operational evidence — that it does not meet the legal definition of gambling under established legal criteria.

In Short

  • Goodsluck is a marketplace, not a casino,
  • It offers randomization for fairness, not for prizes,
  • It provides non-cash perks, not crypto or cash equivalents,
  • It profits from goods, not games.
