Lotto x5 Help & FAQ

How do I pick my numbers?

Simply pick six numbers from 1 to 59 or select the QuickPick option (Quick+1). After this, just click "submit" to proceed to the checkout.

If you would like to choose an extra QuickPick, you can click on "Quick+1". To select a QuickPick for every line on the betslip, click on "Rest".

If you wish to delete and restart your bet, you can do so at any time by clicking on the dustbin icon in the top right of the betslip.

You can submit your bet for draws on Wednesday, Friday or Saturday, or any combination of these days. Your bet can have a duration of 1, 2, 4, 8, 26 or 52 weeks or if you’d prefer a subscription you can submit a subscription with a billing period of 1, 2, 4, 8, 26 or 52 weeks. You can also select the first draw to bet on.

What is a subscription bet?

Subscriptions remove the hassle of buying repeat line bets and could protect you from missing out on a big jackpot win. Our subscription feature allows you to set up an automatic bet on a given lottery draw. The subscription is open ended, will run for as long as you want it to and you can opt out at any time!

To cancel a subscription, visit the ‘My Activity’ section of your player account and next to the relevant bet, you will find an option to cancel the subscription renewal for that bet. Once cancelled, the subscription will not renew after the current billing period.

How does a system bet work?

A system bet on Lotto x5 allows you to choose MORE than the standard 6 required main numbers when selecting your bet. Since a single line bet on Lotto x5 always involves 6 main numbers, the various 6 number combinations of all the numbers you have chosen will all be submitted as bets.

For example, if you chose a 7 main number system bet with 2, 23, 25, 34, 39, 45 and 48, your bet would consist of 7 combinations of 6 numbers. The following bets would be submitted:

2, 23, 25, 34, 39 & 45	2, 23, 25, 34, 39 & 48	2, 23, 25, 34, 45 & 48
2, 23, 25, 39, 45 & 48	2, 23, 34, 39, 45 & 48	2, 25, 34, 39, 45 & 48
23, 25, 34, 39, 45 & 48

That's 7 line bets in total!

To create a system bet, simply click on any additional numbers you would like to bet on, and the feature will be automatically activated. You will also be able to see the number of line bets about to be submitted by clicking on the info button next to your stake. You can choose up to a maximum of 13 numbers for a system bet.

How many bets can I purchase?

On a single bet slip, you can purchase up to 12 line bets or system bets.

How does the draw work?

Just like many of the quick-play lotteries around the world, the exclusive to Lottoland Lotto x5 is based on a verified random number generator, independently audited and by an approved Test House authorised by the Gambling Commission. The draw picks 6 numbers from 1 to 59 for the main draw and another set of 6 numbers from 1 to 59 for each of the 4 extra draws.

When does the draw take place?

The draw takes place from 10:15pm UK time on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

How do I win the jackpot?

The jackpot is won when a player’s bet matches all six main numbers with the numbers drawn in the main draw or with the numbers drawn in the four £1 Million Jackpot Only draws.

Is there a possibility I could share the jackpot?

There is no guarantee that you will be the only one to choose a given set of numbers. Therefore, if both you and another player(s) are lucky enough to match the 6 corresponding numbers for prize tier 1 of any of the five Lotto x5 draws, you will share the prize fund equally.

Sharing between two types of winners

For each of the five Lotto x5 draws, the amount eligible is determined by the eligible full top prize of £1 million, divided by the number of tier 1 winners in that specific draw.

How much does it cost?

A single line bet costs just £1. This includes entry into the main draw and the 4 additional £1 Million jackpot only draws.

Can you explain the different prize tiers available?

For each of the different prize tiers, you will find the winning odds in the tables below.

For any given combination, only the highest win will be paid. For example, if a bet contains a combination matching the top tier (6 numbers), the player will only win the jackpot for that specific combination - that is to say, the corresponding prize for that tier. They will not be able to claim additional prizes for the lower tiers. Nonetheless, other combinations included in the same bet may win other prizes from other tiers.

In the event of a malfunction, all pays and plays will be automatically voided.

What is the return-to-player (RTP)?

The theoretical Return to Player (RTP) of the game, including all the 4 extra draws, and based on a jackpot of £1m for each draw is 46.28%. A reduction in RTP would be realized if and when more than one person share the top prize, depending on the number of persons sharing it

How will I know if I have won?

Winners will receive an e-mail confirmation to inform them and congratulate them on their win!

What will happen in the event of a technical fault?

In the event of any technical fault (such as system downs and disconnections), all draws due to take place during the fault will be determined as soon as the system is restarted. No draws will ever be cancelled, just determined at a later point.

If the lottery happens to be offline, the player will be informed with a pop-up message and the bet will not be submitted.
