Figures calculated using results drawn between 27/09/2016 and 10/11/2020.
This column displays the percentage of the prize fund allocated to each prize level. The remaining 10% goes into a separate fund, known as the Booster Fund, which is used to ensure there is always enough for the advertised minimum jackpot of €17 million. EuroMillions occasionally holds special draws or promotions, where the guaranteed minimum jackpot can be increased up to as much as €130 million, using surplus funds from the Booster Fund.
The 50% allocated to the jackpot only applies for the first five draws in a series of rollovers. Once the top prize has rolled over five times in a row, the ‘Match 5 + 2’ allocation is adjusted down to 42% until the jackpot gets won. The remaining 8% goes to the Booster Fund, ensuring that this reserve pot receives 18% of funds from the sixth draw in a rollover series until the jackpot is won.
The lowest and highest prize amounts for each prize tier, other than the jackpot, are in respect of individual winning tickets.
The Match 5 + 2 Lucky Stars prize values represent the total jackpot amounts regardless of how many winning tickets there were.
All prize data included in the table above relates to EuroMillions lottery draw results since 27th September 2016 when the Lucky Star pool increased from 11 numbers to 12. The details provided are for information purposes only and are not indicative of future prize values.

Why is this lottery played a little in Russia??
Seemingly, it should be the other way around - knowing the reverent attitude of the organizers of European lotteries to each of the real and even potential players, for coupons EuroMillions from Russia queues will line up. But no - this trend is not observed.
We decided to find out on our own why? And here are the conclusions:
- Despite the large number of resources, covering lottery topics, information about foreign draws is still not enough.
- Russian players are somewhat alarmed by the need, other than payment directly bid, pay for the services of an intermediary (although this is normal practice, because they also have to earn on their services).
- Low level of trust in the intermediary on the part of the players - not everyone will risk playing without confidence, what will get his prize in case of winning.
But the main reason for unpopularity is still ignorance.
Even if one of the gamblers and heard out of the way, that there is such a lottery, it doesn't matter, exact answer to the question: is it possible to play it from Russia, no one really knows. Also, players do not know how and where to place bets..
That is why it is so important, so that comprehensive and detailed information is on one resource - a potential player could quickly study it, analyze, compare the cost of bets of several lotteries, and choose the optimal one for yourself
