What is the Millionaire Raffle?

EuroMillions now includes the Millionaire Raffle. The way you play EuroMillions will not change; however, every time you purchase a line of EuroMillions numbers, you'll be issued with a unique Millionaire Raffle selection - which will be displayed on your ticket. This selection will be entered into the weekly Millionaire Raffle draw.

The Millionaire Raffle is only open to players in the UK and every week someone will win £1 million - guaranteed!

How do I play online?

To play online, you'll first need to open a National Lottery Account. If you haven't yet opened one, we'll prompt you to do so once you've completed your online play slip (see 'How do I enter my numbers' below).

A National Lottery Account lets you play Lottery Draw Games and our exciting Instant Wins online. To get started, you can transfer as little as £5 to your National Lottery Account from your debit card, and transfer money back to your bank account at any time. For your added security we do verify your details. If we can't authorise your application immediately online, you can also register for an Account by post.

How do I enter my numbers?

Simply complete the online play slip:

1. Enter five numbers from 1-50 and two Lucky Star numbers from 1-9. Or pick 'Lucky Dip' for a random selection.

2. Decide the number of weeks you'd like to play. You can choose to play up to four weeks in advance.

3. Play up to four lines of numbers on the main EuroMillions play slip, or select 'Add more lines' to play up to 20 lines with multiple tickets.

4. Next, click 'Play Now':

5. Your Millionaire Raffle selection will be displayed on your completed ticket, under your EuroMillions numbers.

• If you're already signed into your National Lottery Account, your EuroMillions draw ticket will now be displayed, with the details stored safely in your Account
• If you're yet to sign into your National Lottery Account, you'll now be prompted to do so. Once you've signed in, your EuroMillions draw ticket will be displayed, with the details stored safely in your Account
• If you've yet to open a National Lottery Account, you'll now be prompted to do so. In the meantime, our system will remember your play slip details. Once you've opened your Account and added funds, your EuroMillions draw ticket will be displayed, with the details stored safely in your Account.

How much does it cost?

EuroMillions costs £2 per line to play.

Where are my ticket details kept?

We keep your ticket details safe and secure in your National Lottery Account, so you can view them online whenever you like (except when our system is closed for maintenance).

To access your Account, click 'Sign in' at the top right of the homepage, then enter your secure username and password. If you can't remember your sign-in details, click the 'Forgotten username or password' link for assistance.

Once you've signed in, select 'Tickets', under the 'Games' menu, to view your ticket details.

What happens if I win?

For your convenience, we'll pay most winnings directly to your National Lottery Account or your debit card. You can claim your prize the day immediately after you win it. Here's how we pay you:

Wins of up to £500

We pay these directly to your Account. You can either transfer them to your debit card or use them to play more games.

Wins of £501 to £5,000

We pay these directly to your debit card, so you can quickly start to enjoy them.

Wins of more than £5,000

You must claim wins of more than £5,000 by calling the National Lottery Customer Care Team on 0845 278 8000. For these, you'll be paid by cheque.

When can I play?

You can play EuroMillions online every day from 8am (sometimes earlier) until 11.00pm.

Remember that EuroMillions ticket sales close at 7.30pm on Friday for that evening's draw. Tickets are available again from 9pm on Friday — all tickets purchased after this time will be entered into next week's draw.

When can I watch the live draw?

The Millionaire Raffle draw takes place before Friday's main EuroMillions draw on BBC One.
