Lottery Ireland
Ireland introduced the national lottery in 1988 as a means to raise money for good causes and the effort has been a resounding success by all measures. Since going live, the Irish Lotto has raised more than €4.5 billion for hundreds of causes ranging from Autism Assistance Dogs of Ireland to the Limerick Youth Theatre – and those are just. When you play National Lottery games, almost 30c from every €1 spent goes back to thousands of Good Causes in communities all over Ireland. Since 1987, National Lottery players have raised an estimated €5.5 billion for incredible Good Causes across the country. This is a real money gambling app. You can play if you’re 18 or over.

How to Play
Lottery Ireland Results
The Irish Lottery game requires players to select six numbers from 1 to 47. Seven numbers are drawn, comprising of six main numbers and one bonus number. To win the jackpot, the player's selections must match all six numbers. Players can either choose their own numbers or opt for a Quick Pick, which will automatically generate a random entry for them.
Draws take place twice a week on Wednesday and Saturday evenings, with eight different prize tiers available. The jackpot is guaranteed to be worth a minimum of €2 million, but rollovers can quickly create jackpots of €6 million or more on a regular basis. The lower-tier prizes offered on the Irish Lottery are comprised of a combination of guaranteed and pari-mutuel prizes (which are calculated based on the number of tickets sold and divided between the number of winners in each tier). You can win two free Lucky Dip entries to the Daily Million with Plus game (worth €3) by matching two main numbers plus the Bonus Ball, while matching five main numbers plus the Bonus Ball could land you an estimated €100,000.
The complete details of all eight prize tiers can be found in the table below:
