How does Lotto Max work?
Lotto Max is one of the biggest lottery games in Canada, with draws happening twice weekly on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Each $5 ticket gives you three sets of seven numbers, ranging from 1 to 50. For each draw, seven numbers and one bonus number are randomly chosen — to win, you need to match at least three of your numbers to those drawn. In some prize categories, the bonus number can help boost your winnings.
Prizes vary based on ticket sales, with winnings divided among each prize tier from 4/7 plus bonus and up. Here’s a look at the prize breakdown:
- 7/7 (jackpot) — average of $47.5 million (but you’ll always know what the jackpot is when you buy your ticket)
- 6/7 plus bonus — average of $194,405
- 6/7 — average of $4,629
- 5/7 plus bonus — average of $926
- 5/7 — average of $105
- 4/7 plus bonus — average of $50
- 4/7 — $20 fixed prize
- 3/7 plus bonus — $20 fixed prize
- 3/7 — free play
The Lotto Max jackpot starts at $10 million and can grow to a staggering $80 million if it’s not won. When it hits $50 million, additional $1 million Maxmillions prizes start rolling in with their own unique sets of seven numbers.
All three sets of numbers on your ticket are entered in the main draw, and if Maxmillions are available, they’re included in those as well. To take home a Maxmillions prize, you’ll need a full match of seven numbers in one set.
Tickets are available until 10:30 p.m. ET on draw nights.
The odds of hitting the jackpot are around 1 in 33 million, but your chances of winning any prize stand at about 1 in 7.
Good luck, Montreal!
