Eurojackpot Odds and Prizes

To win a Eurojackpot prize, you must match at least three of the seven numbers that are drawn – three main numbers, two main numbers and one Euro number, or one main number and two Euro numbers.

The value of prizes increases as you match more numbers, right up to the jackpot for getting all seven. This is always worth at least €10 million, and it rolls over every time it is not won. The jackpot can reach as high as €120 million.

The following table shows all the different ways to win, along with the percentage of the prize fund allocated to each tier.

Numbers Matched Odds of Winning Percentage of Prize Fund
5 + 2 1 in 139,838,160 36%
5 + 1 1 in 6,991,908 8.6%
5 + 0 1 in 3,107,515 4.85%
4 + 2 1 in 621,503 0.8%
4 + 1 1 in 31,075 1%
3 + 2 1 in 14,125 1.1%
4 + 0 1 in 13,811 0.8%
2 + 2 1 in 985 2.55%
3 + 1 1 in 706 2.85%
3 + 0 1 in 314 5.4%
1 + 2 1 in 188 6.75%
2 + 1 1 in 49 20.3%
The remaining 9% is kept in a reserve fund to ensure the minimum jackpot can always be paid out.

If the jackpot rolls over all the way to €120 million, it is capped and cannot go any higher. Any funds that would have been added on top are instead allocated to the ‘Match 5 +1’ category. The jackpot stays at €120 million until it is won.

A number of Eurojackpot players have won the maximum jackpot of €120 million. It first happened in July 2022, when a Danish participant won with a ticket they had bought at a Meny store in Blåvand.
