UK Lottery

Lottery UK Online Overview

The UK Lottery is a popular game for its ability to make millionaires. It can be played online as well. The game is drawn twice a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

How the UK Lottery Works

Each player must select 6 numbers on their ticket from a selection of the numbers 1-49. When the draw takes place, six numbers are selected along with one bonus number. Due to the relatively small payout percentage, we do not recommend this lottery. There are plenty of other international lottery games available online with better payouts and higher jackpots.
