Simply choose five prime numbers from 1 to 50 and two additional Euro numbers from 1 to 12. The Euro and prime numbers are drawn in separate pools of balls, so the same number can appear as both prime and Euro numbers.

You can select the numbers yourself, or you can use the “Quick Pick” feature when purchasing tickets to randomly generate a set of numbers. You can also use the Random Number Generator before purchasing a ticket to find a set of numbers you like. Choose whether you want to play on Tuesday, Friday, or both days of the draw. You need to buy your ticket before the set time.

Eurojackpot offers 12 prize levels, and anyone who guesses all five prime numbers and both Euro numbers in the draw will receive a share of the jackpot, which starts at €10 million. If no one guesses all the numbers in a draw, the jackpot goes on to the next draw until it reaches its limit of €120 million. Eurojackpot tickets can be purchased online or at any official point of sale in one of the participating countries. From the Eurojackpot review, you will learn how to play the lottery.
