Prizes and Odds
There are four prize tiers available in Lotto 47. The jackpot starts at $1 million and rolls over if nobody wins, increasing in value for the next draw. If there are multiple winners, it is shared between all the players matching six numbers. The three other prize amounts are fixed in every draw. The prizes available and odds of winning in each tier are below:
| Numbers Matched | Odds of Winning | Prize |
|---|---|---|
| 6 | 1 in 10,737,573 | Jackpot |
| 5 | 1 in 43,649 | $2,500 |
| 4 | 1 in 873 | $100 |
| 3 | 1 in 50 | $5 |
| The overall odds of winning a Lotto 47 prize are 1 in 47 | ||
Double Play
Double Play is a supplementary game in which an extra set of winning numbers is drawn from 1 to 47. You use the same numbers for Double Play as you do for the main draw, and you can win prizes by matching three or more of them. The Double Play draw takes place immediately after the main game and it also uses a pool of balls numbered from 1 to 47, so the same number can appear in both draws.
There is a jackpot of $1.5 million in every draw, so unlike the main draw this cannot roll over. All other prizes amounts are doubled from the main draw. The odds of winning in Double Play are the same as Lotto 47, and the payouts on offer are below:
| Numbers Matched | Odds of Winning | Prize |
|---|---|---|
| 6 | 1 in 10,737,573 | $1.5 million |
| 5 | 1 in 43,649 | $5,000 |
| 4 | 1 in 873 | $200 |
| 3 | 1 in 50 | $10 |
| The overall odds of winning a Double Play prize are 1 in 47 | ||
EZMatch
When you play EZmatch, five random EZmatch numbers are printed on your Lotto 47 ticket, each with a cash value between $2 and $500. If any of the numbers you chose for the main Lotto 47 drawing match the EZmatch numbers on your ticket, you win the corresponding cash prize. There are 11 prize tiers, shown below alongside the odds of winning:
| Cash Prize | Odds of Winning |
|---|---|
| $500 | 1 in 84,000 |
| $250 | 1 in 42,000 |
| $100 | 1 in 14,000 |
