Next Draw: Sat 23/11/2024
Britain’s favourite lottery has had a makeover! UK Lotto is just as exciting as ever, but now it comes with even bigger jackpots and the new UK Lotto Millionaire Maker raffle, giving away a guaranteed £1 Million in every draw. The game also features more balls to choose from and jackpots of up to £66 Million.
Play UK Lotto with its 59 balls and you’re 3 times more likely to win the jackpot - up to £66 Million - than with EuroMillions. Match just 3 numbers to win the entry level prize of £25 or match 2 numbers and get the cost of your ticket credited back to your BuyLottoOnline account. More than 45 percent of revenues are paid out in prize money, placing UK Lotto among the most generous national lottery games in the world, which means the jackpot increases rapidly in line with ticket sales.
You need to choose 6 numbers from a possible 59. These are drawn from one machine and you need to match all 6 numbers to win the jackpot. A Bonus Ball, drawn from a separate machine, is used for the second tier prize. Every ticket also includes an automatically-allocated number for the UK Lotto Millionaire Raffle, which is drawn separately.
UK Lotto is the main national lottery game in the United Kingdom. Launched in 1994, with a Wednesday draw added in 1997, it has raised more than £42 Billion for good causes in the UK and abroad. The game was thoroughly revamped in October 2015 when prize levels and jackpots were increased and the number of main balls was increased from 49 to 59. A guaranteed £1 Million jackpot was also introduced for the UK Lotto Millionaire Maker raffle.
You need to choose 6 numbers from a possible 59. To win the jackpot you need to match all 6 numbers. For the second tier prize you need to match 5 main numbers plus the Bonus Ball, which is drawn from a separate machine. UK Lotto is drawn every Wednesday and Saturday in London and, if nobody wins the jackpot, it rolls over to the next draw, up to a maximum of £66 Million. UK Lotto Raffle is drawn at the same time using a separate, automatically-generated number included on each ticket.
The UK Lotto jackpot usually kicks off around £2.5 million for the Wednesday draw and £5 Million on a Saturday, although rollovers and Super Draws can go much higher. The jackpot conyinues to roll over till it hits £50 Million. If, once it hits that level, it still hasn't been won, there is one more rollover draw with an unlimited jackpot based on the number of tickets sold (The current record is £66 Million). If that draw doesn't produce a winner the jackpot prize pot is divided among winners of the next prize level down (5 Main Numbers + Bonus Ball) and the jackpot returns to the normal amount. There are 5 prize levels in total and you need to match 3 balls to win the entry level prize of £25 or match 2 balls and you can win back the price of your ticket, which will be credited to your BuyLottoOnline account. The UK Lotto Millionaire Maker raffle pays out a £1 Million guaranteed jackpot in every draw, plus 20 prizes of £20,000.
