EuroMillions is a number draw where players select 5 numbers from 1 to 50.
In addition to the main selection, the game includes: UK Millionaire Maker, an optional extra game; European Millionaire Maker, an optional extra game.
Draws take place every Tuesday and Friday.
The game offers 13 different prize tiers, from the jackpot down to smaller prizes.
With Lottofy you can play the world's biggest lotteries with official tickets — pick your lucky numbers and enjoy the thrill of international draws in a simple, fast and convenient way, wherever you are.
EuroMillions is Europe's most popular transnational lottery, with millions of players across more than a dozen countries taking part every single week. Each entry consists of choosing 5 main numbers from 1 to 50 and 2 Lucky Stars from 1 to 12. With two draws per week, jackpots starting at €17 million (around £14–15 million, depending on the exchange rate) and capped at €250 million, EuroMillions offers one of the biggest prize opportunities in the world.
At Lottofy you can buy your EuroMillions ticket quickly, securely and entirely online. As well as the classic single ticket, Lottofy offers exclusive play modes — such as multiple tickets with formulas and Share50 — that you won't find anywhere else, giving you smarter, more flexible ways to win.
How to Play EuroMillions: Ticket Types
Lottofy gives you two main ways to play EuroMillions: the single ticket, ideal for those who prefer the classic approach, and the multiple ticket, designed for players who want to cover more combinations in a single ticket.
Single Ticket
The single ticket is the straightforward, classic way to play. In one ticket you can include between 1 and 5 independent tickets. Each ticket occupies its own panel in which you select 5 main numbers from 1 to 50 and 2 Lucky Stars from 1 to 12. Every panel enters the draw independently, with its own combination and its own chance of winning a prize.
It's the most direct way to play EuroMillions and the most popular choice for first-time players.
Multiple Ticket: More Combinations, More Chances
The multiple ticket takes things a step further. Rather than being limited to 5 numbers and 2 Lucky Stars per panel, you can select up to 10 main numbers and up to 5 Lucky Stars in a single ticket. The system automatically generates every possible combination from your selection, covering a far wider spread of the draw with just one ticket.
The more numbers you choose, the more combinations are generated — and the greater your chance of landing a prize in one of the 13 categories.
Available combinations with 2 Lucky Stars:
Numbers | Lucky Stars | Tickets generated |
6 | 2 | 6 |
7 | 2 | 21 |
8 | 2 | 56 |
9 | 2 | 126 |
10 | 2 | 252 |
Available combinations with 3 Lucky Stars:
Numbers | Lucky Stars | Tickets generated |
5 | 3 | 3 |
6 | 3 | 18 |
7 | 3 | 63 |
8 | 3 | 168 |

10 | 3 | 756 |

7 | 4 | 126 |
8 | 4 | 336 |

9 | 5 | 1,260 |
10 | 5 | 2,520 |
Two Ways to Play a Multiple ticket
Once you've chosen your multiple combination, you have two options for how to play it:
Multiple ticket — straight play Every combination generated by your number selection enters the draw independently. This is the maximum-coverage option: you're paid the prize of every winning combination.
Multiple ticket — formula play (exclusive to Lottofy) This is one of Lottofy's most powerful and distinctive features. Formulas are mathematical algorithms that intelligently select a subset of the possible combinations, reducing the number of tickets required — not at random, but whilst guaranteeing a coverage percentage that you choose yourself.
The result: you play a multiple with far fewer tickets than the straight-play option, maintain high prize odds, and lower the overall cost of your ticket. It's the smartest way to play multiples for anyone who wants to get the best value from their EuroMillions entries.
The EuroMillions Jackpot
The minimum jackpot for every EuroMillions draw is €17 million. In the UK it is announced in pounds, so the equivalent changes with the exchange rate; it is usually around £14–15 million. When no player matches the first category, the jackpot rolls over to the next draw and keeps growing week after week with no time limit.
Throughout the year, EuroMillions runs special draws — such as the EuroMillions Big Friday — in which the jackpot starts at £130 million, regardless of how much has accumulated up to that point. These special draws attract exceptionally high participation and opening jackpots that would be record-breaking prizes in their own right.
The maximum possible jackpot is €250 million (around £215 million, depending on the exchange rate). When the jackpot reaches that figure, the draw is declared a Must Be Won event: if no player matches all 5 numbers and both Lucky Stars, the jackpot cascades down and is shared proportionally among the highest categories that do have winners, significantly boosting the value of prizes in those tiers.
Tuesday and Friday Draws
EuroMillions holds two draws every week: one on Tuesday and one on Friday. Both draws are identical in rules, prize structure and gameplay. You can choose to enter just one of them or select the weekly option to have your combinations in both draws each week, doubling your chances of winning.
Choose How Many Weeks You Want to Play
At Lottofy you can schedule your EuroMillions entries for between 1 and 52 consecutive weeks with the same combinations. Playing multiple weeks at once has clear benefits:
Your combinations are locked in without needing to repeat your purchase before each draw.
You avoid payment issues such as card expiry or other unexpected problems.
You can get discounts — the more weeks you choose in one cycle, the better the saving.
Auto-Renewal: Never Miss a Draw
If you prefer to play continuously without having to think about deadlines, activate auto-renewal. When your chosen cycle of weeks comes to an end, your combinations renew automatically for the next cycle. You stay in the game at all times, with no interruptions and no risk of missing a draw — however big the jackpot.
Share50: Win Beyond Your Own Combinations
Share50 is Lottofy's exclusive collective play feature, designed to boost your winning potential beyond your own ticket. The mechanics are fully transparent, and we take no commission on Share50 prizes:
You keep 50% of any prize generated by your own tickets.
The remaining 50% goes into the shared fund and is distributed proportionally among all Share50 participants, based on the number of tickets each player has contributed.
In return, you receive your proportional share of the 50% contributed to the fund by all other participants.
What does this mean in practice? Even if none of your own combinations wins in a particular draw, you can still receive a payout if other players in Share50 have winning entries. And if your own combinations do win, you keep 50% of your own prize, after any reduction set out in our Terms.
We take no commission on Share50 prizes. All the prizes generated within Share50 are distributed among the participating players.
EuroMillions has 13 prize categories, meaning you don't need to match all the numbers to win a prize. The overall odds of winning any prize on a single EuroMillions ticket are approximately 1 in 13.
Category | Numbers matched | Lucky Stars matched | Odds | % of prize fund |

13 | 2 | 0 | 1 : 22 | 18.25% |
The Category 1 prize fund allocation drops from 43.20% to 27.00% from the sixth consecutive rollover onwards, with the difference redistributed across the lower prize categories.
