Eurojackpot
Eurojackpot is a pan-European lottery that was launched in March 2012 as a counterpart to EuroMillions, which is only offered in select countries. The game offers a starting jackpot of €10 million, but the value of the top prize can quickly increase due to rollovers. The largest Eurojackpot win to date is €120 million.
Players choose five main numbers from 50 and two Euro numbers from 1 to 12 in order to win cash prizes for matching anything from two main numbers and one Euro number up to the jackpot for matching the whole selection. Eurojackpot is drawn on a Tuesday and Friday night in Helsinki, Finland with the winning numbers and prize breakdown appearing on the Eurojackpot results page soon afterwards.
Where is Eurojackpot Played?
Players from Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Poland can purchase their tickets from authorised retailers within their own countries.
Players from across the world can take part by choosing Eurojackpot numbers online and potentially winning an nine-figure jackpot.
Odds of Winning Eurojackpot
The odds of winning any cash prize in Eurojackpot stand at 1 in 32, whereas the odds of matching all five main numbers and two Euro numbers and winning the jackpot are 1 in 139,838,160.
Eurojackpot caps its top prize at €120 million, and if no player can scoop the jackpot at that point then the excess prize revenue generated is allocated to the second winning tier, and both prizes can roll until someone wins the top prize.
