EuroMillions, launched in 2004, enjoys participation from several European nations, including Belgium, France, the UK, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Austria, Switzerland, and Luxembourg. The lottery aims to create new millionaires across Europe with its draws taking place every Tuesday and Friday.
With regulations allowing both foreigners to buy lottery tickets and win prizes, the EuroMillions lottery attracts many players worldwide to buy tickets and try their luck through Lottery Messenger Service Sites like TheLotter.
To play EuroMillions, players select five numbers from a guess range of 1-50 and two additional numbers, called ‘Lucky Stars’, from a guess range of 1-12. To win the EuroMillions top prize, players must successfully match all five numbers drawn from the main drum and both Lucky Stars.
The odds of winning the EuroMillions jackpot are 1 in 139,838,160. Details of the winner(s) are not disclosed.
How long do winners have to claim their prize money?
Winners from different countries have different deadlines to claim their prize.
In Austria, winners have a whole three years to claim the prize before it is returned to the lottery and used to fund boosted prizes.
Belgian winners, on the other hand, only have around 140 days before the money is returned to the Belgian National Lottery.
The least amount of time to snap up the jackpot goes to France and Luxembourg.
French winners only have 60 days to claim the money or it will be used to fund special promotions. This is supposed to create “a number of millionaires over the course of a week”.
Players from Luxembourg also have just 60 days to claim the win before it’s returned to the lottery’s reserve fund.
Winners from Ireland, Portugal and Spain all have around 90 days to tell the world they’ve won.
Meanwhile, Switzerland and the UK winners have 180 days to claim the prize before it is distributed elsewhere.
If you buy tickets outside Europe through Lottery Messenger Services like theLotter, the service provider will help you claim the prize quickly and validly according to the regulations of country where the physical ticket is registered for you.
Now that the jackpot has been won, it will reset to its base amount of €17,000,000. EuroMillions draws take place on Tuesday and Friday evenings, so there are two chances a week for you to become the next jackpot winner.
