Why Play This Lottery

Irish Lotto gives you roughly 27 times better jackpot odds than EuroMillions. That means real, regular winners — not just once-a-decade jackpot events.

Two draws a week, every week, since 1988. Ireland's national lottery has a history of delivering, and the odds are on your side more than any other major European draw.

Small country, big dreams, excellent odds. Irish Lotto is the sharp player's choice for European lottery action.

What Can You Win?

Five prize tiers plus the Bonus Ball second tier — Irish Lotto gives you more ways to win than you might expect from a small national lottery.

Land five numbers plus the Bonus Ball and you are looking at a prize that could easily run into six figures. Hit all six and the jackpot is yours.

Even three-number matches pay cash. Irish Lotto rewards players at every level, which is part of why Ireland keeps coming back to it twice a week.

How It Works

Six numbers from 1 to 47. Better odds than almost any other major lottery in the world. Irish Lotto keeps it simple and keeps paying out.

The Bonus Ball can turn a near-miss into a big second prize. Match five plus the bonus and walk away with a life-changing payout.

Affordable tickets, draws twice a week, jackpot odds under 11 million to one. Irish Lotto is the smart lottery play for anyone who wants a genuine chance.

Play with Crypto

Bitcoin, Ethereum, crypto of your choice — use it to play Irish Lotto from anywhere on the planet. The Irish diaspora spans the world, and now so does the game.

No bank account in Ireland, no problem. Deposit crypto, pick your six numbers, and chase some of the best jackpot odds in European lottery history.

Win, collect in crypto, done. Irish Lotto via digital currency is fast, flexible, and available to anyone with an internet connection and a wallet.

Draw Times

Wednesday and Saturday at 8 PM Irish time — two draws, two opportunities every week. The rhythm of Irish Lotto is reliable and the excitement is real.

Get your ticket in by 7 PM on draw nights. Sales close an hour before — plan ahead and make sure you are part of every draw.

Results drop immediately after the draw. Check your numbers live on RTE or online — and if six numbers line up, your Wednesday or Saturday just became very memorable.
