Euro Millions Prizes
Euro Millions prizes have been calculated to give a good chance of winning to as many players as possible as well as providing a massive jackpot to attract new players. As you can see from the table below, there are 12 13 levels of euro lottery prizes awarded each twice a week.
The Euromillions prize jackpot will roll over to the next week draw if it is not won, being added to the next weeks draws regular jackpot. Otherwise prize levels are shared amongst all the prize winners in that prize category, with the exact amount differing in line with sales levels.

As you can see, to win the Euromillions prize jackpot you would need to correctly find all five main board numbers and both lucky star numbers. The odds of this occurring are slightly more than 1 in 116 million. Those are very long odds, but when you consider the enormity of the jackpot prize (at least 15 million Euros, and often a great deal more), the cost of a basic entry (just €2), and the spectacular entertainment value that this competition offers, we think it’s more than a fair deal.
If the jackpot is not won, it will rollover to the next week draw and be added to that weeks draws jackpot prize. There is, however and exception when the jackpot has rolled over for 12 weeks or for a designated Superdraw when the jackpot rolls down.
Of course, the Euro Millions draw offers eleven twelve more prize categories apart from the jackpot, and the odds of a player winning one of these are a lot better. In fact, the odds of a player winning the smallest prize category are an impressive 1 in 23!
Overall, the odds of a player winning any prize are around 1 in 24 13.
