Q

What is a Quick Draw?

A

A Quick Draw is a lottery-style game that functions similar to a lottery but with some crucial differences.

  • Quick Draws take place every hour, every day of the week.
  • Draws are not organized by an official lottery operator.
  • You make bets on the outcome of a lottery-style draw.
  • There are no actual tickets.
  • Winning numbers are determined by a random number generator (RNG).
  • Prizes are paid by theLotter.
  • Small prizes are paid from revenues, larger prizes are insured.

Q

How are the prizes set in Quick Draws?

A

EuroMillions GO!, EuroJackpot GO!, Germany Lotto GO!, US Power GO!, and US Mega GO! offer the same huge jackpots, secondary prizes, and chances of winning as those of their underlying lotteries. When the jackpots of EuroMillions, EuroJackpot and Germany Lotto roll over, the jackpots of the corresponding Quick Draws roll over as well, up to the maximum set for Quick Draw lottery-style games. When the EuroMillions, EuroJackpot, and/or Germany Lottery jackpots are won, the jackpots of the Quick Draws are reset as well. EuroMillions GO! resets to €17 million; EuroJackpot GO! resets to €10 million; and Germany Lotto GO! resets to €1 million. US Power GO!, and US Mega GO! have fixed jackpots of $100 million for every draw. 

Q

How are the numbers chosen in a Quick Draw?

A

theLotter uses random number generator (RNG) technology to produce the results of each Quick Draw. This technology is provided by European Lotto and Betting Limited (ELBL), a company officially licensed and regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority. The winning numbers in each lottery-style draw are drawn by this certified and tested random number generator, based on the specific game rules of each Quick Draw game.

Q

Where can I find Quick Draws?

A

The available Quick Draws are displayed on the homepage of our site. If you don’t see Quick Draws, it is because Quick Draws are not available in your jurisdiction due to regulatory reasons.

Q

How do I receive my Quick Draw winnings?

A

theLotter operates Quick Draws on an insurance-based business model, which ensures that all prizes will be paid to winners. Smaller wins are paid out directly from revenues received from sales. Larger prizes are guaranteed and covered by theLotter's insurance.

When you win, prizes will be paid directly into your account by theLotter. You can use your winnings for future participation in lottery draws, or you can choose to withdraw them.
