Explanation of the Game
Prizes
The Austrian Class Lottery is a state-guaranteed prize winning game and offers the highest chances of winning among all games of chance throughout Austria. Out of 250,000 tickets 248,196 prizes are to be won.
In every Class Lottery a total of 126 million Euros are at stake. Not only the main prize of 5 million Euros and the weekly draw of one million are sensational, the other prizes are also very attractive! The Austrian Class Lottery is the only game in which there is a guaranteed Euro-million prize every Monday.
Every single one of the 250,000 tickets has the same chance of winning and participates each week in the draw. The number and the amount of the wins are fixed in the prize schedule in advance. Thus your chances to win a prize in the lottery are guaranteed.
Course and Duration of the Game
Each game takes half a year and is divided into six game sections – the classes. There are 4 draws in each class. This means that your ticket of the Class Lottery participates in a total of 24 draws.
The winning amount and the number of wins increase from one class to the other. The sixth class with roughly 57% of the total winning amount offers the highest chances. In the final draw alone a total of 10 million Euros are at stake.
It is therefore very important and advantageous to play throughout the complete lottery, as most and highest prizes are drawn in the 6th class.
Chances of Winning and Optimizing the Game
Play and win with your personal lucky package. You alone decide about your ticket charges. Please choose from our offers, which and how many tickets suit you best.
In the classical version of the game you play with whole tickets, half tickets or tenths of a ticket.
If you like to further optimize your chances of winning, just take the opportunity to spread out the charges over several ticket numbers. The more numbers you play with, the higher your chances of winning, and the bigger your ticket share, the higher your prize share!
Here is an example: If your ticket number wins a prize and you hold the whole ticket, you can look forward to one million Euros. As a holder of one tenth of a ticket your share would be 100,000 Euros.
Please find more information about other Class Lottery ticket variations in the detailed description of the tickets.
