How can you afford to pay such huge jackpots?

Lottery betting differs from traditional lotteries, in which the prize pool is created by the sale of tickets. Winnings from LottoGo are funded through a combination of purchasing official lottery tickets and insurance.

All winnings are paid so that they are equal to the cash option of each national lottery’s winnings, with any applicable taxes deducted prior to pay-out.*

In the UK, our EuroMillions and UK Lotto prizes are funded through purchasing official EuroMillions lottery tickets alone.

*Exclusions apply to winnings from bets placed on 6aus49 and Swedish Lotto, which are subject to a LottoGo jackpot tier 1 cap of £10 million GBP.
