Ruling on Sales Conducted through an Application Based on a Lottery System

I intend to create an application for promotional purposes, where the number of participants is limited to 20 individuals. Each participant contributes a share of 5 dinars. A primary product, such as a mobile phone, is advertised, and a lottery draw is conducted for that phone. Once the promotional period concludes or all participations are filled, a draw is held for the primary product (the mobile phone). Moreover, secondary products—such as a charger, headphones, or a phone case—are awarded to those who do not win the primary product, as compensation for their participation. It should be noted that there are no specific games or activities influencing the draw for the primary product. A single individual may participate multiple times to increase their chances of winning. What is the Islamic ruling on this practice?
