How Do You Play New Zealand Lotto Online?

New Zealand Lotto is played by selecting six main numbers from a guess range of 1-40. At the draw, an additional bonus number is also selected, creating three of the lottery's seven prize divisions. You can enter your favourite numbers manually, or by using the Quick Pick option for a set of randomly generated numbers.

What is the Difference Between New Zealand Lotto and NZ Powerball Lotto?

New Zealand Lotto's huge popularity lead lottery officials to create Powerball Lotto. While they might seem like two totally separate lotteries, they are actually the exact same game, with a very rewarding twist! New Zealand Powerball is a play option that can be added to a Lotto entry. Playing this variation of Lotto will give you a chance at winning from seven additional prize divisions. This option is similar to Powerball’s Power Play option, or the Italian SuperStar.

To win Powerball Lotto , players must match the 6 winning Lotto numbers, in addition to a Powerball number which is drawn from a guess range of 1-10. One great thing about playing Powerball Lotto is that Lotto's bonus number is still counted; meaning players get to win from double the number of prize divisions!

The biggest difference between them though has got to be the jackpot prize. While the Lotto jackpot stands at NZ$1 million in every draw, Powerball Lotto jackpot starts at NZ$4 million and can reach an incredible NZ$50 million before it needs to be won.
