Is Saturday's Lotto a rollover?
Yes, the Lotto jackpot for Saturday is a 1x rollover at an estimated £3,910,000.
Upcoming Changes
From the 7th June 2026, the Lotto will be undergoing changes in the hope to make more players become winners. The most significant changes is that the Lotto will have two draw rounds instead of the one it currently has. This will also be the case for the Lotto HotPicks game. Tickets will remain at £2 per line of numbers or Lucky Dip, giving you twice the chance to win.
Prizes will be lower for tiers under the jackpot, but with the reintroduction of the ‘Guaranteed Millionaire Raffle’ players will get even more chances to win big in occasional draws!
When it comes to rollovers, Must Be Won draws will still occur after the fifth rollover, but if neither round sees a winner then each Match 2 winner will receive a £5 prize. In particular circumstances, this amount may change but in either case, any leftover money will be shared between Match 3 winners.
About Lotto
UK Lotto is a 6/59 National Lottery game that gives you the chance to win great prizes twice a week – Wednesday and Saturday evenings.
The starting jackpot is £2 million on a Wednesday, or £3.8 million on a Saturday. This prize increases each time there is a rollover, until there have been five consecutive rollovers and a Must Be Won draw has to be held.
What are Must Be Won draws?
A Lotto Must Be Won draw is when the jackpot is guaranteed to be won. They take place when the jackpot has rolled over five times.
If nobody matches all six numbers in the subsequent draw, a rolldown occurs and the jackpot money is shared between every player in the lower prize levels, including a £5 prize for matching two numbers.
Special Must Be Won draws are also occasionally scheduled for key dates such as Christmas, when the jackpot is bumped up to £15 million or £20 million.
How to Play Lotto in 3 Easy Steps
Step 1:
Select your numbers
You'll need to select six numbers from a range of 1-59.
When picking Lotto numbers, you can choose your own or get a Lucky Dip. This means your numbers will be generated at random.
Step 2:
Choose which draws to enter
Decide whether to play on Wednesday, Saturday or both days.
You can play up to 4 weeks in advance or set up a running subscription.
Step 3:
Pay for your tickets
Whether you're playing online or in-store, you'll need to pay for each line of numbers that you've selected.
Once that's done, just sit back and wait for the draw to happen!
Lotto Prizes
There are six different ways to win Lotto prizes. To win the jackpot, you need to match all six of the main numbers to be drawn. A Bonus Ball is also drawn from the 53 numbers that are left. If you match the Bonus Ball, and five of the six main numbers, you win £1 million.
There are also fixed prizes for matching two, three, four or five main numbers. The table below shows the prize money you can win, as well as the odds. The table also shows how much will be allocated to your prize tier if there is a Must Be Won draw which ends in a rolldown. This is on top of the usual prize. For example, if you match two main numbers and there is a rolldown, you receive a free Lucky Dip and £5.
| Numbers Matched | Prize Awarded | Prize % Allocated in Must Be Won Draws | Odds of Winning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6/6 main numbers | Jackpot | Jackpot | 1 in 45,057,474 |
| 5/6 main numbers + Bonus | £1,000,000 | 3% | 1 in 7,509,579 |
| 5/6 main numbers | £1,750 | 3% | 1 in 144,415 |
| 4/6 main numbers | £140 | 7% | 1 in 2,180 |
| 3/6 main numbers | £30 | 85% | 1 in 97 |
| 2/6 main numbers | Free Lucky Dip | All winners receive £5 | 1 in 10.3 |
| The approximate overall odds of winning a Lotto prize are 1 in 9.3 | |||
Please note: All UK Lotto prizes are valid for 180 days from the date of the draw. Any prizes that are unclaimed after this point are transferred to the Good Causes Fund.
