 * if i use Bluehost do they offer everything i need such as high security, ssl 
   and woocomerce and wordpress installed? are they any good?

   which has $79.00 USD…… which one do i need? it is very confusing sorry. Also,
   how is all this linked to a mailing list? is that included?

 * Hi [@mwdman88](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwdman88/),
 * > *in this blog it list 2 things…. WooCommerce Lottery at $23 a year and [https://woocommerce.com/products/lottery-for-woocommerce/](https://woocommerce.com/products/lottery-for-woocommerce/)
   > which has $79.00 USD
 * Both are lottery plugins. Thus, you could choose the one that meets your needs.
   We’ll be happy to assist with questions regarding the [Lottery for WooCommerce](https://woocommerce.com/products/lottery-for-woocommerce/)
   plugin via [a presales ticket](https://woocommerce.com/my-account/create-a-ticket/?form=ticket)
   but feel free to take a look at the [documentation](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/lottery/)
   first.
 * _For WooCommerce Lottery, which is a third-party plugin, you can reach the relevant
   support team [here](https://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-lottery-wordpress-prizes-and-lotteries/15075983/support)._
 * > since I am based in the UK can I use Paypal to accept payments or can i just
   > accept card payments direct to my bank account via WooCommerce Lottery?
 * Good question. The lottery plugin will only assist you with placing lotteries
   on your site.
    Thus, based on your explanation, you will need a payment gateway
   plugin that can accept PayPal or card payments. I would recommend the [WooCommerce PayPal payments](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-paypal-payments/).
   Should you run into any challenges while setting up the plugin, kindly go ahead
   and post a thread on this forum – [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-paypal-payments/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-paypal-payments/)
 * Hope this helps, we’ll be happy to be of further assistance.
    Many thanks.

 * You’re welcome!
 * Hoping that the above info was helpful, I’ll go ahead and mark the thread as 
   resolved.
 * If you require help with anything else, please feel free to create another thread.
   
   We’ll be here to assist.
 * Thanks.
