How To Play SA daily lotto lottery

To play Daily Lotto, the player must choose five numbers from 1 to 36. The player can select their own numbers or opt for a Quick Pick. A Quick Pick is an automated number generating machine that helps by giving a random selection generated by the computer. It costs R3 per play to participate in the SA daily lotto lottery. The participants of the Daily Lotto lottery can enter their numbers in up to 10 consecutive draws by marking the relevant box in the Multi-Draw section of their play slip. One can also participate in the lottery online or by visiting any official lottery retailer. A total of five winning numbers are selected by a Random Number Generator (RNG).

The criteria for prizes is that the players who successfully match at least 3 out of 6 drawn numbers win the starting amount. As the number of matches increases the prizes also increase. All the players who successfully match all the 6 drawn numbers win equal shares of the jackpot. However, the chances of doing so are 1 in 20,358,520. If the players match four or five drawn numbers, then the prize will be divided equally between everyone who has matched that many balls. If none of the players match all the six numbers, then the jackpot is added to the next Lotto draw. A single DAILY LOTTO play will cost you R3.00 vat incl.
