What is the difference between the EuroMillions and EuroJackpot lotteries?

From a gameplay perspective, EuroMillions and EuroJackpot are similar; both events require you to pick 5 numbers from 50, and 2 supplementary numbers. The supplementary numbers are where the difference becomes clear as you must pick 2 supplementary (Star) numbers from 8 for the EuroJackpot and for the EuroMillions you must pick 2 supplementary numbers from 12.

The prices for the two events are also similar – R50 for the EuroMillions and R35 for EuroJackpot

The EuroJackpot organisers guarantee a weekly minimum payout of €10 million* (ZAR equivalent), with a maximum payout of €90 million* (ZAR equivalent). The EuroMillions is much larger in comparison, with a minimum of €15 million* (ZAR equivalent) available at each of the two weekly draws (i.e. €30 million* (ZAR equivalent) weekly), with a maximum payout size of a whopping €190 million* (ZAR equivalent)!

The winning numbers for the EuroJackpot are drawn every Friday in Helsinki (Finland), while the EuroMillions has two weekly draws on Tuesdays and Fridays in Paris (France).

A great tip for EuroMillions fans - whenever there's a Friday draw coming up with a low payout check out our EuroJackpot page, as it may well have a bigger payout, and at great odds too!

Does the EuroMillions have system combinations?

Yes, it is possible to select number combinations for the EuroMillions. If you select more than the minimum required numbers (5 main + 2 Stars), then a system selection is made using all the possible combinations possible from your numbers. The more numbers and stars you select, the more EuroMillions number combinations can be made from them.
