Description:
This is an AddOn that lets you set up a Guild Lottery or Raffle. The info such as price per ticket and the amount of money in the Lottery (or items in a Raffle) are up to you.
There has been talk about whether or not a Lottery AddOn is allowed according to Blizzard EULA, I hope the following link (a Blizzard link) will put to rest the debate.

TLDR: If it's private, (ie within Guild) it's okay, but you cannot advertise for it in public.
Feel free to join a discord I've setup: https://discord.gg/H7tGQjv
ATTENTION EU REALM PLAYERS:
While the Blizzard support article linked above no longer exists (was removed sometime before BfA came out), a couple of users on the Discord server I've setup contacted a Blizzard GM after they received a warning. The users involved are on EU Realms, although Blizzards stance for US Realm players is very likely the same with regards to this AddOn; You can view the ticket and response below.
TLDR: As stated above, so long as the events remain within your Guild Blizzard's okay with them.

The ticket submitted (thanks to Qunite):
This was Blizzards response:
Warning:
Blizzard does not save session data until you log off, so if you add a bunch of tickets to someone and your WoW Client crashes, you WILL lose the data. It's a Blizzard issue I'm afraid; so make sure if you add tickets that you don't go 10 hours without logging, just to be safe!
