Jackpot Limit History
When EuroMillions was first presented to the public in 2004 year, lottery jackpot was capped by the maximum number of transfers - 11 time. When, if in the twelfth draw none of the participants guessed correctly 5 main numbers and 2 "Lucky stars", then the main prize will be transferred to the next prize tier, which has a winner.
In November 2009 of the year, Jackpot transfer rules have been revised and replaced with a limited jackpot(ang. Jackpot cap), equal 185 million euros. However, the rules also stated, that in case of reaching the maximum ceiling, the jackpot will be increased by 5 million euros. What happened 12 july 2012 of the year, when a couple from Scotland, Chris and Colin Weir (ang. Chris and Colin Weir), won the maximum allowed jackpot, after which the maximum amount was increased to 190 million euros.
In September 2016 r. some changes were made, so that bigger jackpots can be generated more often. One of these changes was an increase in the number of jackpot draws for the total 190 000 000 € before downgrading to a lower prize tier and splitting between ticket holders in that tier. Initially, the total prize could reach the limit and remain active for one draw before being downgraded in the second draw; however, as a result of these changes, the limit increased to four draws.
In February 2020 the EuroMillions prize distribution scheme has changed, as a result, now a larger percentage of the prize pool of each draw is credited to the jackpot. To make the prize even bigger, upper jackpot limit increased from 190 to 200 million euros. According to the new rules, the upper limit of the jackpot is increased by 10 million euros every time, when the jackpot is won or rolled over to a lower prize tier, and the absolute maximum jackpot is 250 million euros.
