Am I playing the UK National Lottery?
No. Absolutely not. For regulatory reasons, as of 8th March 2018 we cannot offer you a bet on the UK National Lottery Lotto. However, because we believe strongly in giving our customers innovation, better products and choice, we thought we'd take 6 numbers from the Czech lottery ‘Rychlé Kačky’ (in English ‘Quick Ducks').
What is similar and what is different?
We don’t want our Lottolanders to confuse the games in any way. That’s why we’ve created this helpful table below:

How do I choose my numbers?
Choose 6 numbers from 1-59 or select the QuickPick option (Quick+1) . Once you have chosen your numbers, select which draw you want to play (Wednesday or Saturday) and press Submit. This will take you through to a checkout. Be sure to review your purchase first then click Confirm and proceed to pay.
How do I win the Jackpot?
In each draw six numbers are drawn. Players who match all six numbers will win the jackpot. A further bonus number is drawn out after the six main numbers. This affects players who have 5 matching numbers. If their sixth number is the same as the bonus ball they will hit the second prize division.
How are the winning numbers generated?
The results for UK Lotto Plus are selected from the Czech ‘Rychlé Kačky’ keno game. We take the first 6 numbers drawn between 1 and 59 from the 21:40 CET draw and the results can be found here.
Because the Czech ‘Rychlé Kačky’ is a 1 to 66 lottery game, there is a small chance we will not be all able to determine all 6 numbers in the first draw.In this instance, any numbers yet to be determined will be derived from the following subsequent draws which happen every minute between 12:04am and 11:57pm CET.
Seem complicated? It's not as bad as it first sounds. Here's an example:
• You pick the numbers 5, 39, 4, 44, 1 and 11.
• In the 21:40 CET Czech ‘Rychlé Kačky’ draw, the following three numbers 5, 25, 39 (only those 59 or under) are selected.
• The remaining three main numbers are selected from the 9:41pm CET draw that is 2, 11 and 58. The bonus ball is also selected in this draw, say 41.
• The winning numbers for will therefore be 5, 25, 39, 2, 11 and 58, plus the bonus ball 41.
• You therefore match three numbers (5, 39 and 11) so, congrats, you could win an estimated amount of €28.59 (US$ equivalent)!
How much does it cost?
A single line costs US$3.50 .
When does the draw take place?
The draw takes place from 22:40 CET on Wednesdays and Saturdays and you can buy tickets until 22:25 CET on both days.
How does the Doublejackpot feature work?
The DoubleJackpot feature allows you to bet for twice the lottery jackpot. So, for instance, if the top tier is US$15 million and you activate the DoubleJackpot feature, you can potentially win US$30 million. You will pay double the price of your normal line bet to activate the DoubleJackpot feature.
Will I have to share the jackpot?
While UK Lotto Plus is completely separate and distinctive from the Czech ‘Rychlé Kačky’ and the UK National Lottery Lotto, by betting with us, you win the amount that you would have won if the Lottoland advertised UK Lotto Plus jackpot was shared between you and any official lottery winners of the National Lottery Lotto game, or other Lottoland winning players.
Sounds complex? It’s not really. To make sure you understand, we’ve created this helpful table which explains the different scenarios:

Does UK Lotto Plus have a “roll down”?
Unlike the National Lottery Lotto, we do not “roll down” the jackpot prize fund to the lower prize tiers after 5 rollovers. However, our jackpot comes with a whoppin’ FIVE MILLION pounds sterling! – that means bigger winnings when you strike it lucky.
What do I do if I win?
If your account has been verified, simply proceed to your account and withdraw your winnings. If your account has not been verified, you will first need to provide proof of your ID and proof of address. Once this has been confirmed, you will be able to withdraw your winnings.
Is the payout guaranteed? How do I know?
At Lottoland we can guarantee you will be paid out on your winnings - regardless of the jackpot amount.At Lottoland you bet on the outcome of the official draw. For all intents and purposes you will have the exact same customer experience as if you were playing the official lottery. The key difference is that we take your bet and we pay you if you win. We are able to achieve this in two ways.
For smaller prize tier payments we make the payment directly from the fund we have from the total ticket sales.
In order for us to make the larger prize tier payments we take out insurance policies to cover the eventuality of a Jackpot win or a substantial payout on the Lotto ticket. Part of the Lotto ticket price you pay goes towards the payment of this policy.
We are registered with and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission, the Gibraltar Gambling Commission, and the Revenue Commissioners in Ireland. In order for us to retain these licences we have to prove that we are able to make the required payouts to our players should they win and that we have the correct procedures in place to guarantee this.
Why should I play UK Lotto Plus?
Our exclusive UK Lotto Plus game gives you the SAME format as the UK Lotto draw on exactly the SAME days, but with a big difference – we’ll top up the jackpot with FIVE MILLION pounds sterling!
