Bulls Lotto – Frequently Asked Questions

Bulls Lotto gives you the chance to bet on a non-UK lottery and win life-changing prizes twice a week whilst also supporting Bulls.

Unlike traditional lotteries, where the prize pool is distributed from the sale of tickets, when you purchase a ‘ticket’ at Bulls Lotto you are placing a bet on the outcome of the German national lottery. This means you can expect on average jackpots of £7.5m with rollovers of up to £40m.

To place a bet all you need to do is simply select six numbers from 1 to 49 and one ‘Star’ number from 0 to 9 and keep your fingers crossed!

Draws take place every Wednesday around 6pm and every Saturday between 7pm and 10pm. Six numbers (the main numbers) are drawn, plus with the ‘Star’ number. Lotto bets cost £1.50.

Average prize categories are shown in the table below.

** Except through a Lotto Syndicate, and subject to any other conditions on the applicable betting screenRemember, the Star number is only relevant when you match six main numbers and the Star number, or fewer than 3 main numbers and the Star number.

If you still have further questions just contact our customer service team (call 0207 048 0306 or email: service@lottofc.co.uk).
