The game of the French National Lottery, officially known as "Loto" began in 1976, and its draws are held on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Players must select five numbers between 1 and 49 plus 1 additional number between 1 and 10. The ticket that matches all five numbers plus the additional number wins the jackpot.
How to play
French Lotto tickets can be purchased online or in person at an authorized retailer at the price of €2.20 per line. https://francelottoresult.co.za/
Lotto jackpots have a minimum value of €2 million and if no one matches all 5 numbers and the lucky number, the jackpot will roll over to the next draw and rise to €1 million. The jackpot can roll over for a maximum of 34 consecutive draws and if no one wins the main prize, the jackpot will roll down to the next lower prize tier and be shared between the prize winning players on that tier.
In addition to the jackpot, there are eight other winning combinations, and you can even win a prize for matching the lucky number. Most of the prizes follow the parimutuel system, so they vary from draw to draw depending on the number of tickets sold and the number of winners, but there is a fixed prize of €2.20 for matching the number of the luck with one or none of the main balls.
