The odds for winning any one of the GUARANTEED Prize Draws are determined by the total number of selections issued across Canada.

For example, if 5 million Lotto 6/49 selections are issued, there would be 5 million selections for the GUARANTEED Prize Draw.

In that example, the odds of any one selection being drawn for any of the GUARANTEED Prize Draws would be 1 in 5 million.

No – a prize can only be awarded after a winning ticket is presented for validation and approved for payment. While the vast majority of lottery prizes are claimed by customers, especially when the prize is $1 million or more, there is always some possibility that a winning ticket might not be presented for payment or that the prize claim is not approved.

No – players are automatically issued a GOLD BALL DRAW number with every Lotto 6/49 play purchased. There is no way to purchase a ticket that does not include a GOLD BALL DRAW number.

To ensure there is only one winning GOLD BALL DRAW number, every selection must be unique. If customers were to choose their own selections, there would always be the possibility that two players could have the same winning GUARANTEED Prize Draw number, and therefore, have to split the GUARANTEED Prize amount.

No – the GOLD BALL DRAW numbers are unique, and therefore, two tickets cannot share the same number. The winning selection for the GUARANTEED Prizes will match only one 10-digit number and will only appear on one ticket issued across Canada.

Like all prizes won on Lotto 6/49, a prize won on any GUARANTEED Prize Draw can be claimed for up to one year from the draw date. After that time, a prize is expired and cannot be claimed.
