France Lotto FAQs
The France Lotto is drawn three times a week: on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. The draw takes place at 8:35 PM Central European Time (CET). For South African Standard Time (SAST), which is usually one hour ahead of CET, the draw would be at 9:35 PM.
To play the France Lotto, you need to select five main numbers from 1 to 49 and one additional number, known as the Lucky Number, from 1 to 10. In South Africa, you can bet on the outcome of the France Lotto through licensed bookmakers like YesPlay and PlayaBets. Instead of participating in the actual lottery, you are betting on the results of the draw. This means you can place bets on various outcomes, such as the numbers you think will be drawn, the bonus ball, or even the odds/evens ratio of the numbers.
To win the France Lotto, the numbers you bet on need to match the numbers drawn in the official lottery. Prizes are awarded for matching just the Lucky Number up to matching all five main numbers plus the Lucky Number. The odds and potential payouts can vary depending on the bookmaker you are betting with in South Africa, so it's important to check their specific rules and prize structures.
The biggest jackpot in France Lotto history was €24 million, won in June 2011. While individual winnings from betting through bookmakers in South Africa may not reach this amount due to different prize structures, the potential for large winnings still makes betting on France Lotto a popular choice among lottery enthusiasts.
