3 Winnings

3.1.1 Payment of Winnings. In the event that a Bet is a Winning Bet:

  1. a calculation of the total monetary value of the Winnings will be carried out;

  2. if required the Operator will request the completion of certain Player verification tasks. In particular, all tier 1 payouts in respect of Bets on the outcome of Betting Events are subject to enhanced player verification, third party audits on win validation and payout by the underlying insurers; and, 

  3. after completion of such verification tasks, assuming no valid issues that may have been identified remain unresolved, the Winnings will be made available to the Operator. For the avoidance of doubt, EU Lotto shall have no liability to the Player in respect of the Winnings.

  4. Winnings in the El Gordo de Verano, KeNow, Cash4Life, WorldMillions, Keno 24/7, Bitcoin Lottery and all EU Lotto games based on the RiNG and Bitcoin Lottery are paid out as published on the Operator’s Website and independent of the Winnings published by the Underlying Lottery Operator.

The total of all Winnings payable by EU Lotto per Prize Category for these certain draws must never exceed the numbers as set out below. If it the numbers are exceeded, Winnings are divided among the winners; KeNow: 5,000,000,00 EUR; WorldMillions: such amount chosen and advertised by the Operator; Keno24/7: 10,000,000,00 EUR (10,000,000.00 GBP for GBP players); GlücksSpirale GO: Monthly payments of 50,000.00 EUR or 4,800,000.00 EUR as the sum of all future monthly payments; Spiel77 GO: 10,000,000.00 EUR; Super6 GO: 1,000,000.00 EUR.

Winnings in a Type A Prize Category

3.2 The Winnings payable in respect of each Bet in a Type A Prize Category (as defined in the table above), will depend on the number of the Underlying Lottery Winning Tickets in that Prize Category, the number of EU Lotto Winning Bets in that Prize Category, the payable Prize by the Underlying Lottery Operator for the Underlying Lottery Winning Tickets in that Prize Category as well as the Underlying Lottery Jackpot in that Prize Category.

3.3 EU Lotto calculates the Winnings in a Type A Prize Category on the basis of the amount of aggregate stakes published by the Underlying Lottery Operator as well as the distribution to that Jackpot Prize Category or on the basis of the jackpot published on the Website of the Underlying Lottery Operator for that Prize Category of the relevant draw of the Underlying Lottery. 

Only one Islands Lotto Betting Network Winning Bet in a Type A Prize Category 

3.4 If there is only one EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type A Prize Category, the Winnings payable in respect of this EU Lotto Winning Bet are calculated as: 

 

Winnings = Underlying Lottery Jackpot in that Type A Prize Category / (Underlying Lottery Jackpot Winning Tickets in that Type A Prize Category + 1) 



Example 1: There is only one EU Lotto Winning Bet in the Type A Prize Category and no Underlying Lottery Winning Ticket has been announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator in the Type A Prize Category in respect of an Underlying Lottery Jackpot in the Type A Prize Category of 90,000,000.00 EUR. The Winnings payable in respect of that single EU Lotto Winning Bet amount to 90,000,000.00 EUR. 

 

Example 2: There is only one EU Lotto Winning Bet in the Type A Prize Category and two Underlying Lottery Jackpot Winning Tickets have been announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator in the Type A Prize Category in respect of an Underlying Lottery Jackpot in the Type A Prize Category of 90,000,000.00 EUR. The Winnings payable in respect of that single EU Lotto Winning Bet amount to 30,000,000.00 EUR.

More than one Island Lotto Betting Network Winning Bet

3.5 If there is more than one EU Lotto Winning Bet in the Type A Prize Category, the Winnings payable in respect of the EU Lotto Winning Bets in the Type A Prize Category are calculated based on a “Share Model“, consisting of three steps. 

Step 1 – Calculation of the number of shares: 

Number of shares = Number of Underlying Lottery Jackpot Winning Tickets in that Prize Category + Number of EU Lotto Winning Bets in that Prize Category

 

Step 2 – Calculation of Size of each share: 

Size of 1 share = Underlying Lottery Jackpot in that Prize Category / Number of shares 

 

Step 3 – Allocation of Winnings: 

1 share per EU Lotto Winning Bet in the Type A Prize Category

 

Example 3: There are two EU Lotto Winning Bets in the Type A Prize Category and one Underlying Lottery Jackpot Winning Ticket has been announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator in the Type A Prize Category in respect of a Underlying Lottery Jackpot in the Type A Prize Category of 90,000,000.00 EUR. There are three payout shares, with a size of 30,000,000.00 EUR each. The Winnings payable in respect of each EU Lotto Winning Bet in the Type A Prize Category amounts to 30,000,000.00 EUR 

Winnings in Type B Prize Category

3.6 The Winnings payable in respect of each EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B Prize Category (as defined in the table above, for example Prize Category 2 in EuroMillions) will depend on the number of the Underlying Lottery Winning Tickets in that Prize Category, the number of EU Lotto Winning Bets in that Prize Category, the payable Prize by the Underlying Lottery Operator for the Underlying Lottery Winning Tickets in that Prize Category as well as the Underlying Lottery Jackpot in that Prize Category. 

EU Lotto calculates the Winnings in a Type B Prize Category on the basis of the amount of aggregate stakes published by the Underlying Lottery Operator as well as the distribution to that Jackpot Prize Category or on the basis of the jackpot published on the Website of the Underlying Lottery Operator for that Prize Category of the relevant draw of the Underlying Lottery. 

Only one EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B Prize Category

3.7 If there is only one EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B Prize Category, the Winnings payable in respect of this EU Lotto Winning Bet are calculated as: 

Winnings = Underlying Lottery Jackpot in that Type B Prize Category / (Underlying Lottery Jackpot Winning Tickets in that Type B Prize Category + 1) 

 

Example 1: There is only one EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B Prize Category and no Underlying Lottery Winning Ticket has been announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator in that Type B Prize Category in respect of an Underlying Lottery Jackpot in a Type B Prize Category of 9,000,000.00 EUR. The Winnings payable in respect of that single EU Lotto Winning Bet amount to 9,000,000.00 EUR. 

 

Example 2: There is only one EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B Prize Category and two Underlying Lottery Jackpot Winning Tickets have been announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator in that Type B Prize Category in respect of a Underlying Lottery Jackpot in a Type B Prize Category of 9,000,000.00 EUR. The Winnings payable in respect of that single EU Lotto Winning Bet amount to 3,000,000.00 EUR.

 

More than one EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B Prize Category

3.8 If there is more than one EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B Prize Category, the Winnings payable in respect of these EU Lotto Winning Bets are calculated based on a Share Model, consisting of three steps: 

 

Step 1 – Calculation of the number of shares: 

Number of shares = Number of Underlying Lottery Winning Tickets in that Prize Category + Number of EU Lotto Winning Bets in that Prize Category 

 

Step 2 – Calculation of Size of each share: 

Size of 1 share = Underlying Lottery Jackpot / Number of shares 

 

Step 3 – Allocation of Winnings: 

1 share per EU Lotto Winning Bet in that Prize Category

 

Example 3: There are two EU Lotto Winning Bets in a Type B Prize Category and one Underlying Lottery Winning Ticket has been announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator in that Type B Prize Category in respect of an Underlying Lottery Jackpot in a Type B Prize Category of 3,000,000.00 EUR. There are three payout shares, with a size of 1,000,000.00 EUR each. The Winnings payable in respect of each EU Lotto Winning Bet in that Prize Category amount to 1,000,000.00 EUR.

 

Winnings in a Type C Prize Category

3.9 The Winnings to be paid out in respect of each EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type C Prize Category (as defined in the table above, for example Prize Category 4 in EuroMillions) shall be the amount of the Prize announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator in respect of an Underlying Lottery Winning Ticket in the respective Prize Category. If the Underlying Lottery Operator has not announced a Prize in the respective Prize Category for the relevant draw of the Underlying Lottery, the Winnings payable in respect of each EU Lotto Winning Bet in that Prize Category will be calculated on the basis of the aggregate amounts paid in for the relevant draw of the Underlying Lottery announced by the Underlying Lottery Operator and its allocation to the winning Prize Categories.



3.10 Payout of Prizes from Prize Categories to other Prize Categories

The above regulations apply based on the assumption that there was no payout of Prizes from one Prize Category  to another Prize Category , regardless of whether the rules of the Underlying Lottery indicate otherwise. Therefore, in the event Prizes of a higher Prize Category are added to a lower Prize Category, due to either (i) no Underlying Lottery Winning Tickets in a Prize Category for one draw, (ii)  no Underlying Lottery Winning Tickets in the higher Prize Category for a number of subsequent draws or (iii)  to a jackpot cap in respect of the higher Prize Category, this will not be taken into account by the Operator. The Operator will only payout the Prize originally allocated to that lower Prize Category based on the stakes published by the Underlaying Lottery and the Prize allocation table of that lottery.

 

3.11 SpecialJackpots. For all games, the Operator has the possibility to announce a SpecialJackpot under its sole discretion. In this case, the SpecialJackpot sum announced replaces any Underlying Lottery Jackpot in that Type A Prize Category.

 

3.12 One Prize Category. Only one Prize Category can be won per Bet, which will be the highest of the available Prize Categories achieved by, and relevant to, that Bet. A Combo Bet can win in more than one Prize Category, based on the separate Bets it is made of.

 

3.13 Currencies. Winnings are calculated and credited in EUR. The exchange rate used is the European Central Bank Euro foreign exchange reference rate published on the respective draw date on the ECB website (ecb.europa.eu) or (if ecb.europa.eu is not available) the spot rate of exchange (the closing midpoint) for that currency into EUR on the respective draw date as published on oanda.com provided that, in each case, if such date is not a Business Day, the relevant rate shall be that published the preceding Business Day. “Business Day” for the purposes of this clause means a day (other than a Saturday or a Sunday) on which banks are generally open for business in Gibraltar, London and Frankfurt. This clause also applies for annuity payments. However, EU Lotto may, in its sole discretion, chose to calculate and credit Winnings in the currency in which the Bet was placed.

 

3.14 Displayed Information. Islands Lotto and EU Lotto will not be liable for any mistakes in respect to the information displayed.

 

3.15 Rights of EU Lotto. A Player is not entitled to claim any Winnings or receive a payout from EU Lotto and/or EU Lotto may at its discretion decide about the validity of a Bet or a Player's entitlement to Winnings or void a Bet if:

 

  1. Bets were placed after the relevant submission deadline or after the start of the relevant draw;

  2. Bets were erroneously accepted after the relevant deadline or if the relevant drawing had already begun or taken place;

  3. EU Lotto becomes aware of an error in relation to that Bet and is unable to correct the error or confirm the Bet before the deadline;

  4. The Bet was placed by or on behalf of a Player who has been involved in any fraud-related activities in relation to the placing of the Bet, the operation of Players Account or otherwise in connection with the Operator’s Website or the services available through it;

  5. In conjunction with any draw, fraud, technical and/or human error or unwarranted influence was found;

  6. vi. the draw is declared by an Underlying Lottery organiser or co-organiser, as detailed in the EU Lotto Game Overview table, as being invalid;

  7. if the Operator, with valid reason, authorises or instructs EU Lotto to do so; or

  8. if the Operator does not provide EU Lotto with the information required for the Bet or as otherwise required by EU Lotto by virtue of the parties’ contractual and regulatory responsibilities; or

  9. if the Operator fails to discharge any of its contractual obligations to EU Lotto.

 

3.16 When deciding if Winnings are to be paid out, EU Lotto may base its decision on information that is researched and/or held by the Operator, EU Lotto and/or forwarded to EU Lotto. In particular, all tier 1 payouts in respect of Bets on the outcome of Betting Events are subject to enhanced player verification, third party audits on win validation and payout by the underlying insurers.

 

3.17 EU Lotto may claim back Winnings from Players, that have been paid out already to Players, where any of the circumstances referred to above arise.

 

3.18 If any Bet is voided as above, the Operator may in its sole discretion offer Players the option of placing any such Bet on the next relevant draw or crediting Player’s Player Account with the relevant sum. If any Bet is otherwise voided by EU Lotto in accordance with this clause, the relevant sum associated with that Bet may be forfeited or in the case where the Bet was placed by a Player who was subsequently determined to be under the age of 18 at the time of placing the Bet the relevant sum will be returned.

 

3.19 EU Lotto reserves the right to:

 

  1. set off against a Player's Winnings the amount of any unpaid Bets owed by that Player to the Operator; 

  2. terminate, vary or suspend any product offered by EU Lotto, immediately and without prior notice, for any reason at EU Lotto’s sole discretion;

  3. pay Winnings partly or fully in instalments at EU Lotto’s sole discretion;

  4. require that a Player provides identification documents to the Operator for EU Lotto to review in order to enable EU Lotto to satisfy itself as to the validity of the Player’s Player Account details and Player’s entitlement to the Winnings in accordance with these Supplemental Game Terms;

  5. determine whether or not to accept a Player’s Bet(s) prior to the beginning of the draw.



Deductions applied to Winnings 

3.20 Winnings in Type A and Type B Prize Categories will be paid minus any additional deductions for other lotteries as described within the terms and conditions following receipt of funds from EU Lotto.

3.21 Deductions and Payout of Prizes in MegaMillions and PowerBall 

As is common with MUSL Mega Millions and Powerball, EU Lotto may also pay out the Winnings in a Type A Prize Category over 30 years (the “Annuity Option”). If EU Lotto chooses the Annuity Option, the first payment will be made as soon as possible after the draw, with the next 29 payments at one-year intervals. The level of payments is calculated such that the payments rise by the percentage set by MUSL from time to time  until the full sum has been paid out. If EU Lotto chooses the option to pay out Type A Prize Category Winnings in one lump sum (“Cash Option”), the Winnings are paid after withholdings and deductions  are made, as it is done in MUSL Mega Millions and Powerball. As an example, if the relevant discount rate is 40%, our Type A Winning is 60% of the Type A jackpot amount after the relevant deductions have been made. It is in EU Lotto’s discretion to choose the payout plan.

Withholdings for Prizes in MegaMillions and PowerBall:

EU Lotto retains 38% withholdings of prizes in the highest three prize categories because it is intended to put Players in similar economic position as if they had played the underlying lottery.

3.22 The maximum jackpot prize payout is €130 million minus any fees incurred settling the funds to the winner.

3.23 Additional Terms for Alternative Service (Applicable to Millionaire Plus (for UK Players: ”Millionaire“), EuroMillions (for Irish Players: Millionaire), MegaMillions, Powerball, and SuperEnalotto) In the event that Type A Prize Category exceeds EU Lotto’s Jackpot threshold as defined on the product FAQs page on the website (the “Jackpot Threshold”), instead of placing a Bet on the outcome of the relevant Underlying Lottery (as detailed in the table at clause 3.1.2 (Calculation of winnings)), Players will be requesting that EU Lotto purchases a ticket (“Ticket”) via EU Lotto’s ticket agent (“Alternative Service”) bearing the same number as those selected by the Players on the following alternative draws (“Alternative Draws”):

EU Lotto Games

Alternative Draw

Millionaire Plus (for UK Players: “Millionaire”)

The lottery draw whose results are derived from Österreichische Lotterien GmbH (draws taking place in Paris every Tuesday and Friday evening)

EuroMillions (for Irish Players: Millionaire)

The lottery draw whose results are derived from Österreichische Lotterien GmbH (draws taking place in Paris every Tuesday and Friday evening)

MegaMillions

The MegaMillions draw as operated by the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL)

PowerBall

The Powerball draw as operated by the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL)

SuperEnalotto (also referred to as “SuperLotto”)

The lottery draw whose results are derived from Sisal




Note that EU Lotto or its ticket agent will be the participant in the lottery draw whose results are derived from the Alternative Draw. The Player does not participate in the lottery draw and obtains no right to possession of the Ticket. The Player therefore contracts with EU Lotto only and not with the lottery operator nor any third party ticket agents of EU Lotto. The Player has only a contractual entitlement to receive the payment of winnings received by EU Lotto in respect of any winning Ticket, subject to any deductions or exclusions outlined below.

If a Player has placed a Bet (including under a Duration Bet or Subscription) on the outcome of the relevant Underlying Lottery (as detailed in the table at clause 3.1.2 (Calculation of winnings)) prior to the Type A Prize Category exceeding the Jackpot Threshold, that Bet will automatically become void. The Player’s Stake paid in respect of the applicable Bet will instead automatically be applied to participate in the Alternative Service. For a Duration Bet or Subscription, once the Type A Prize Category no longer exceeds the Jackpot threshold, Alternative Service shall not apply and the placing of Bets shall resume as normal.

In respect of Millionaire Plus (UK Players: Millionaire) only, it is important to note that the winning numbers in respect of a Bet placed on the outcome of Rychlé kačky will be different to those of the lottery draw whose results are derived from Österreichische Lotterien GmbH (draws taking place in Paris every Tuesday and Friday evening). When participating in the Alternative Service, in purchasing Tickets, EU Lotto is not responsible for the issuance of tickets or promoting the draw, which is the responsibility of the lottery promoter in the relevant jurisdiction. EU Lotto, through its network of ticket agents, will make reasonable endeavours to procure that the ticket agent fulfils the Ticket orders placed by EU Lotto, however EU Lotto will not be liable to the Player in the event that the ticket agent fails to fulfil (or fulfil correctly) any the Ticket order.

When participating in the Alternative Service, EU Lotto cannot guarantee the collection of winnings in instances where, despite EU Lotto’s reasonable efforts, a lottery operator has declined to pay EU Lotto or its ticket agents, or EU Lotto has otherwise been unable to recover such winnings. EU Lotto will make every reasonable effort to collect winnings and expedite payment to the Player of such winnings.

Please note that any payment of winnings from such tickets will be in line with the actual payout of from the underlying lottery ticket, which is intended to put the Player in a similar economic position to the position the Player would be in if the Player had played the lottery draw whose results are derived from the Alternative Draw.

4 Claiming a Prize

4.1 Printed Play tickets/screenshot Play tickets cannot be used as evidence of  a Bet or of the numbers selected for a Game, or used otherwise to claim a Prize, nor can a purchase confirmation made available to You (or sent to You) by Islands Lotto be used under any circumstances as evidence that You are entitled to claim a Prize.

4.2 Small Prizes will be automatically credited to Your Account and available to play or withdraw in accordance with the Terms. Large Prizes will be allocated to Your Account but will not be available to play or withdraw until the Prize has been validated and the amount has been paid out by the Insurer or any intermediary between Islands Lotto and the Insurer.

4.3 Islands Lotto will not be liable to pay out on a claim for a Prize, or in any other way, should the Insurer or any intermediary between Islands Lotto and the Insurer not pay out on a claim for a Prize.

5 Game Closures etc.

5.1 Islands Lotto has the right to announce the closing date and time for a Lottery Betting Game at any time. No Entries for that Lottery Betting Game will be sold after the closing date and time.  The closing date and time for the Lottery Betting Game will be accessible on the Site.

5.2 Islands Lotto has the right (at its absolute discretion) to suspend or withdraw any Lottery Betting Game.

5.3 Subject to Paragraph 2.4 above, if You have placed a Bet for a Draw which is withdrawn, Islands Lotto will credit Your Account with the amount paid to place the Bet in the Draw which was withdrawn.

6 Defective Bets

6.1. Where instructed by the Jersey Gambling Commission Islands Lotto will, or Islands Lotto may (in its absolute discretion), declare that a Lottery Betting Game or Bet is defective. In these circumstances, all relevant Bets and all relevant Prizes won will be void and Islands Lotto will reimburse to Your Account the Funds used to pay for the defective Bet.

6.2. You do not have the right to cancel a Bet and, subject to Paragraphs 4.3 and 5.1 above, no reimbursement of Funds used to purchase any Bet will be given in any circumstances.
