In a world where information is shared at the speed of light, the city of Santo Domingo hosts a portal that tries to order the numerical chaos of lotteries and daily local economic data. Orejita.com, created by journalist Rafael “Percha” Vásquez, brings together in a single site the results of 84 draws of 14 national and foreign lotteries, along with economic indicators, weather, holidays, and the school calendar.
Results of 14 lotteries in 84 draws
The portal publishes, with precise date and time, the results of the National Lottery, Leidsa, Loteka, Real Lottery, The First, LoteDom, The Luck, Anguila, King Lottery, and the draws of the United States sold in Dominican banks, such as Powerball, Mega Millions, New York, and Florida. Each number appears only when the draw has concluded; if the competition has not yet been played, the page indicates that it is not available instead of showing previous data.
The objective of immediate correction
Vásquez explained that the portal was born from frustration with the circulation of incorrectly published numbers in WhatsApp messages. “In this country, everyone has eaten a wrongly published number. Someone sends it to you by WhatsApp, you celebrate, and half an hour later it turns out to be another. That’s what we wanted to get rid of”, said the editorial director. When a result is corrected, Orejita.com announces it and warns of the correction instead of changing it discreetly.
Mobile apps for iPhone and Android
The portal has a free app for iPhone available in the App Store and in the final review phase for Android in Google Play. Users can choose a draw and receive a notification when the numbers come out. The data is obtained from the official publication of each lottery and verified with a second source before publication.
Statistics without predictions
The statistics of Orejita.com show how many times each number has come out and how long it has been since it last appeared, without offering predictions. Additionally, the portal does not sell tickets or receive bets, nor does it pay prizes or affiliate with any bank.
More than lotteries: daily information
The site has daily consultation sections that include the exchange rate of the dollar and euro of the main commercial banks with their publication time, the weekly price of fuels, the forecast and warnings of INDOMET, the registered tremors, the tracking of the cyclonic season, the date of the marbete, the school calendar, and holidays. It also offers a loan interest rate comparator and the table of positions of the winter ball.
