Lottoland Punter Strikes It Large with MINI Lotto

Due to legislation coming into effect in 2019, we can no longer offer lottery betting and as such some content may no longer be relevant.

Good Things Come in Small Packages

Sometimes big isn’t necessarily better. MINI Coopers, Mini M&Ms and miniature pet pigs are just some examples of where it pays to be tiny. And wouldn’t you prefer a small electricity bill rather than a big one?

MINI Lotto is exactly that, MINI. Why? For starters, the odds of winning the jackpot are the tiniest in the business at 1 : 850,668. This means you have a better chance of winning the MINI Lotto Jackpot than any other local or world lottery Jackpot out there!

Another reason for this Lotto’s MINI status is the small cost to get involved. At just 50 cents per standard bet, it’s also by far the cheapest lottery available.

But just because it is cheaper to bet on and easier to win compared to other lotteries, doesn’t mean you can’t collect a large wad of cash. In fact, every day – that’s 7 days a week – there’s a jackpot of around $80,000 to $100,000 (the jackpot is based on ticket sales in the official lottery) to be won.

Our Lucky MINI Lotto Winner

This past week, a Lottoland member showed us exactly how to hit the MINI Lotto Jackpot and turn a few coins into a major windfall!

The man from New South Wales signed up with Lottoland in August of last year and has been enjoying betting across the full range of international lotteries ever since.

On Tuesday, the 42-year-old decided to have a crack at MINI Lotto and placed a bet on 3 games for a grand total of $1.50 (3 x 50c per game).

In one of his bets, our lucky punter selected the numbers 11, 15, 18, 19 and 30.

You guessed it, the winning numbers were 11, 15, 18, 19 and 30. He hit the Jackpot!

That single 50 cent bet netted our New South Welshman a grand total of $20,081.85, which was deposited straight into his Lottoland account from where he withdrew the money to his bank account shortly afterwards. What a way to start your day! Imagine if you suddenly turned those coins hiding under your car seat or down the side of your couch into 20k. Well, you can!

How to Win MINI Lotto

As you have probably already guessed, MINI Lotto requires you to pick 5 numbers per bet. The range of numbers to choose from are 1-42 - a lot less than the 1-90 range of some of the big international lotteries.

Because you only have to match 5 numbers from a range of 1-42 to win the Jackpot, the odds of striking it lucky are significantly better than the odds available in most other lotteries. In addition, if the Division 1 prize isn’t one, the money is shared amongst the Division 2 winners instead, rather than jackpotting to another day. So even matching just 4 numbers from 5 can still earn you plenty of cash!

There are actually 3 ways to win in MINI Lotto. The following table illustrates the odds of winning each division and the approximate jackpot prize.

Protect Your MINI Lotto Winnings with NumberShield from just 25 Cents!

If you don’t want to share your jackpot with strangers, then Lottoland’s exclusive NumberShield feature is for you! By activating NumberShield on your MINI Lotto bets, Lottoland guarantees that if you jag the Jackpot, you don’t have to share your windfall with other winners. For example, if the MINI Jackpot was $100,000 and there were a total of 4 winners, each winner would receive $25,000 each. However, if you activated NumberShield on your bet, you would still collect the entire $100,000!

NumberShield costs just an extra 25 cents per single bet with MINI Lotto. It could be a small price to pay if you happen to win the Jackpot!
