a.Payment of Winnings. In the event that a Bet is a Winning Bet EU Lotto shall:
i.calculate the total monetary value of the Winnings and notify such to the Operator;
ii.if required request with Operators support 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 underlaying insurers and,
iii. after completion of such verification tasks, assuming no valid issues that may have been identified remain unresolved, make the Winnings available to the Operator for onward distribution to the successful Player.
b.Calculation of Winnings. EU Lotto calculates the Winnings for each Bet. The calculation is different per Underlying Lottery and Prize Category. The following table “EU Lotto Game Overview" explains which calculation method applies for each EU Lotto game:

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 Prize Category 1 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 year to year until the full sum has been paid out.
If EU Lotto chooses the option to pay out Winnings in one lump sum (“Cash Option”), the Winnings after withholdings are discounted, as it is done in MUSL Mega Millions and Powerball. The discount rate is 40%, i.e. the lump sum is 60% of the Annuity Option value. 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 two prize categories because it is intended to put Players in similar economic position as if they had played the underlying lottery.

a.Winnings in a Type A Prize Category. 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. 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 EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type A Prize Category
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 EU Lotto Winning Bet in the Type A Prize Category
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.
b.Winnings in a Type B Prize Category. The Winnings payable in respect of each EU Lotto Winning Bet in a Type B 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. 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
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
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 4: 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 EUR each. The Winnings payable in respect of each EU Lotto Winning Bet in that Prize Category amount to 1,000,000.00 EUR.
-
c.Winnings in a Type C Prize Category. 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) 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.
d.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 to a jackpot cap in respect of the higher Prize Category, this will not be taken into account by Operator. Operator will only payout the Prize originally allocated to that lower Prize Category based on the stakes published by the Underlying Lottery and the prize allocation table of that lottery.
.
-
e.Special Jackpots. For all games, the Operator has the possibility to announce a Special Jackpot under its sole discretion. In this case, the Special Jackpot sum announced replaces any Underlying Lottery Jackpot in that Type A Prize Category.
f.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.
g.Currencies. Winnings are calculated and credited in the currency in which the Bet was placed ("Reference Currency"). The exchange rate used is the spot rate of exchange (the closing midpoint) for that currency into EUR on the respective draw date as published on oanda.com or (if oanda.com is not available) the European Central Bank euro foreign exchange reference rate (ECB rate) for the respective draw date. This also applies for annuity payments.
-
h.Displayed Information. EU Lotto will use reasonable endeavours to ensure that all displayed information and results on the Website are correct. EU Lotto will not be liable for any mistakes in respect to the information displayed.
i.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 Players entitlement to Winnings or void a Bet if:
i.Bets were placed after the relevant submission deadline or after the start of the relevant draw;
ii.Bets were erroneously accepted after the relevant deadline or if the relevant drawing had already begun or taken place; iii. 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;
iii.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 Operators Website or the services available through it;
v. In conjunction with any draw, fraud, technical and/or human error or unwarranted influence was found; 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; vii. if the Operator, with valid reason, authorises or instructs EU Lotto to do so; or viii. 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
iv.if the Operator fails to discharge any of its contractual obligations to EU Lotto.
j.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.
k.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.
-
l.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 Playerss 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 tor 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.
-
m.EU Lotto reserves the right to:
i.set off against a Players Winnings the amount of any unpaid Bets owed by that Player to the Operator;
-
ii.terminate, vary or suspend any product offered by EU Lotto, immediately and without prior notice, for any reason at EU Lottos sole discretion;
iii.pay Winnings partly or fully in instalments at EU Lottos sole discretion;
-
iv.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 Players Player Account details and Playerss entitlement to the Winnings in accordance with these Supplemental Game Terms;
v.determine whether or not to accept a Playerss Bet(s) prior to the beginning of the draw.
