Euromillions 20 lines for 99p
Lotto Social runs lottery syndicates that pool entries from multiple players, increasing the combined chance of winning a share of the jackpot compared with playing alone.
The service is listed as a current NHS-eligible offer through Health Service Discounts.
How lottery syndicates work
Camelot, the National Lottery operator, reports that one in five jackpots are won by syndicates rather than individual players.
Pooling entries with other players reduces the cost per line while keeping the same underlying odds that a full-price ticket would carry.
Syndicate members can play National Lottery, EuroMillions, Powerball and Mega Millions draws through the platform, with winnings split automatically among the group according to each member’s share.
What is the National Lottery?
The National Lottery raises funds for good causes alongside offering lottery games for public participation.
Players can take part in several games including Lotto, EuroMillions, Thunderball and a range of instant win games. Lotto is the main game, where players choose six numbers from 1 to 59 and win by matching them against the numbers drawn.
Special draws and raffles such as Lotto HotPicks and Set For Life offer different styles of gameplay and prizes.
Profits from National Lottery games are distributed across arts, charities, heritage, sports projects and other community initiatives across the UK, and the lottery has raised billions of pounds for these causes since launching.
What is EuroMillions?
In the EuroMillions draw, five main numbers are drawn from a range of 1 to 50, along with two additional numbers called Lucky Stars, chosen from a separate pool of 1 to 12.
The jackpot starts at a minimum of €17 million and can roll over when it is not won, up to a maximum amount that varies by draw. Multiple lower-tier prizes are also available depending on how many numbers a player matches.
EuroMillions draws take place twice a week, on Tuesday and Friday evenings. Occasional special events such as Superdraws feature enhanced jackpots regardless of the previous jackpot amount.
Lottery play and syndicate participation are for over 18s, and reviewing the National Lottery’s responsible gambling guidance before joining is worthwhile.
