Frequently Asked Questions

Every chance costs just £1.00 per draw and the amount debited will depend on the number of chances you have selected and on the number of Fridays between each payment. For example, if you play just one line per week (£1), your Direct Debit will be £4 or £5 (depending on how many Fridays are in that month). 

You can choose from the 1st or 15th of every month. Your Direct Debit will be collected on your chosen date or next working day and a schedule will be sent to you in advance.

You must be 18 years old or over and live in Great Britain (England, Scotland, and Wales) to enter. 

The lottery is run on the Affinity Lottery platform.

6 numbers between 1 and 49 are randomly selected. All of the eligible entries will be checked to see if any match the 6 or 5 numbers in any order. If all 6 numbers are matched, you will win £25,000 and if you match 5 numbers you will win £1,000, from a shared prize pot. If more than one eligible entry matches, the prize pot will be split equally between each winning entry. 

What’s more, every week 35 lucky winners are randomly selected from all eligible entries who are guaranteed to win our runner up prizes. 

The winners will be selected electronically using a random number generator, tested and approved by a Gambling Commission certified test house. 

Approximately 50p from every £1 played will go directly to Challengers.
