50% percent of LOTTARIO draw sales are dedicated to the Prize Fund.
The total amount of the $5 prizes and $50,000 (for the EARLY BIRD prize pool) are paid from the Prize Fund and the balance of the fund (the Pools Fund) is then allocated between the 4/6, 5/6, 5/6+Bonus and 6/6 prize categories as indicated in the table below.
If there is more than one winner in a prize category, the prize in that category will be shared among the winners in that category.
Any amount not won in the 6/6, 5/6+Bonus, 5/6 or 4/6 prize categories is added to the 6/6 Jackpot prize for the next draw.

Jackpot (6/6 number matches) funds accumulate if not won and may grow beyond the $250,000 guaranteed minimum.
A winning set of numbers entitles a winner to a prize in only one of the above regular draw prize categories. Eligible tickets can also win an EARLY BIRD prize.
LOTTARIO prizes must be claimed within 12 months of the draw date.
