Lotto Prizes and Odds
Lotteries are deeply ingrained in Israeli leisure culture, with Lotto being the most popular. It remains one of the oldest, greatest, and most promising games in the Holy Land. Recently, even tourists and visitors have been able to play.
| Match | Prize Payouts | Winning Odds |
|---|---|---|
| 6 + Strong Number | Jackpot (ILS 5,000,000 minimum estimated, with a cap of ILS 80,000,000) | 1 in 16,273,488 or 0.000006% |
| 6 | Second prize (ILS 750,000 minimum estimated, with a cap of ILS 1,500,000) | 1 in 2,712,248 or 0.00004% |
| 5 + Strong Number | Varies | 1 in 87,492 or 0.00114% |
| 5 | Varies | 1 in 14,582 or 0.007% |
| 4 + Strong Number | Varies | 1 in 2,333 or 0.04% |
| 4 | Varies | 1 in 381 or 0.3% |
| 3 + Strong Number | Varies | 1 in 181 or 0.55% |
| 3 | Varies | 1 in 30 |
The overall lottery winning odds are estimated at 1 in 19, which is quite encouraging. There are three participation options available: the regular draw, the Double Lotto, and the Systematic lottery. Additionally, you can choose the Extra option to boost your winnings. So, define your budget, decide how many tickets you need to purchase, and play.
Lotto Extra Prizes
A unique option, Extra, can accompany any type of play. Selecting this option automatically generates a 6-digit number, offering you the chance to win an additional reward of up to ILS 60,000. All you need to do is mark “yes” in the Extra box and wait for the draw. If at least two digits match the drawn number in both position and order, you’ll win a prize. The more numbers that match, the higher your winnings will be.
| Extra Digits Matched | Winning Amount |
|---|---|
| 6 | ILS 60,000 |
| 5 | ILS 1,000 |
| 4 | ILS 75 |
| 3 | ILS 15 |
| 2 | ILS 10 |
Please note that the Extra number will be generated even if you don’t choose this option when selecting your lottery numbers, but it won’t be available for you to win.
Double Lotto
Another promising option is the Double Lotto. You can easily understand how it works; adding it can double any prize. The ticket price will also rise during this event. Still, if you feel a win is near, this feature is a great way to increase your reward.
Systematic Lottery
Finally, if you’re a true lottery fan, you might be familiar with system bets, which allow you to choose a different number of balls, leading to more lottery combinations and higher chances of winning. For Lotto, Systematic Lottery allows you to select 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12 numbers, resulting in anywhere from 28 to 924 possible winning combinations.
Lotto Drawing Schedule
Lotto is a classical lottery held twice a week: once on weekdays and once on weekends. In addition, there are occasional draws on Thursday, so follow the news to take advantage of any opportunity to win a lottery prize and have fun.

Lotto Rules in Israel
Lotto is a flagship lottery of Mifal HaPais, a local lottery company overseen by the government. It was first launched in 1968, and now the following rules and principles are relevant:
- Israeli law requires 18-year-olds to play lotteries.
- Lotto is based on a two-level matrix, where you choose 6 main numbers out of 37 and 1 Strong Number out of the 7-ball grid.
- You can choose numbers on your own or rely on a random selection.
- There are eight prize tiers available, and you can win even if you hit at least three numbers.
- The top prize and the second prize can make you a millionaire, but both have a cap. Other awards are also floating.

- Define the number of consecutive draws to the left.
- Pay for your ticket and wait for it to be printed.
