How to play
Simply choose five numbers from 1 to 49, or, if you’re feeling lucky, opt for a Fast Pick and we’ll generate a random line for you.
You can choose to play on a Monday, Thursday or both. Once set up, your numbers will be entered into every draw until you tell us otherwise.
The aim of the game is to match as many of the numbers drawn as possible. The more numbers you match, the more you'll win. To hit the jackpot you need to match all 5 main numbers.

The total Jackpot prize pool will be capped at £50,000. This means that if we have up to 2 ticket entries all matching the 5 Main Numbers, each winning ticket will be awarded a £25,000 Jackpot prize. However, if there are 5 winners of the Jackpot, they will each be awarded an equal share of the £50,000 Jackpot prize pool and and receive £10,000 each.
The overall prize pool including all winning categories will be capped at £100,000. This means that the prize of all categories will be reduced in proportion so as to bring the total prize payout to a maximum of £100,000 for any single draw.
Players who match 2 main numbers or the Bonus Ball will be entered into our NEW Second Chance Friday Raffle where they have another chance at winning a cash prize! £1,000 worth of prizes are up for grabs.
