Lottery Betting: Rules
All bets placed on the William Hill Sportsbook are also subject to our General Betting Rules.
Maximum Payout
The maximum payout to any one customer or group/syndicate (of customers acting together who have backed the same number of selections) is:
- £1 Million on any one 49's or Irish Lotto draw.
- £250,000 on any one New York Lotto, Polish Lottery, French Lottery, German Lottery, Canadian Lottery, Australian Lottery or Daily Millions Lottery draw.
Acceptance
- Bets are accepted up to the no more bets time broadcast by our service provider (1:30 cut-off for Daily Millions afternoon draw).
- Where a 'no more bets' time is not broadcast by our service provider, bets will be accepted up to 15 minutes prior to the draw being made (1:30 cut-off for Daily Millions afternoon draw).
- Any bet placed after this time will be void unless we are satisfied that the bet was placed before the draw started.
- Where a timed/named draw is selected but the bet is accepted after the day's corresponding draw has taken place or the draw does not take place, bets will be settled on the next actual time/named draws to take place.
- If a draw does not take place, bets are void.
Choosing Which Draw
- Where a draw has not been chosen, bets will be settled on the first Main draw to take place.
- Where the draw includes a 'Booster' or 'Bonus' ball, all bets will be deemed to be for the 6 number draw unless otherwise stated.
Consolations and Bonuses
- Numbers bets will not qualify for consolations or bonuses if placed on our range of special bets.
- In "bet for up to a million" bets if you match all 6 numbers (excluding the bonus ball) you'll win a free share of £1 million Jackpot pool.
- The £1 million Jackpot pool will be divided equally between those bets that correctly match 6 numbers (excluding the bonus ball) in the relevant draw.
Multiple Bets
- With the exception of heads or tails bets on Rapido, selections taken from different numbers draws cannot be combined in multiple or accumulative bets or with other bet types and if taken in error will be settled as singles with the stake divided.
-
