Checking a ticket

Compare your numbers with the draw's numbers on the EuroMillions results page, or let the Lottery Results app do it: scan the ticket with your camera, or save your numbers once and every draw is checked for you, with an alert when the results are in.

Always confirm a win with the operator or an official retailer before discarding a ticket. Lottery Results is independent and can't see your tickets or pay prizes.
