EuroLotto Review 2024

***EUROLOTTO.COM SEEMS TO HAVE STOPPED OFFERING ALL OF ITS SERVICES IN OCTOBER 2019. That is why we've dropped its ranking to the bottom of our list. The EuroLotto review that you see below was written when the site was fully functional.***

-----------------

EuroLotto is an online lottery platform launched in 2011 by PlayCherry Ltd., a company based in Sliema, Malta. The website allows users to participate in over six global lotteries and more than 18 scratchcard games straight from their computers and mobile devices. Aside from lotteries, the website also offers several casino games like slots and video poker. The website is available in five languages, including English, German, Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish.

Online Lottery Games

EuroLotto sells tickets to the following international lotteries:

• EuroJackpot
• EuroMillions
• Powerball
• MegaMillions
• Lotto 6/49
• DinoLotto

How It Works

Before going further, it should be made clear that EuroLotto is a lottery betting website. The website does not purchase actual tickets on your behalf and you are not entering the actual draw. You are simply betting on the outcome of the draw and all winnings are paid by EuroLotto’s bookmaker in Curacao.

As with all online lottery sites, you need to sign up for an account if you want to participate in any of EuroLotto’s offerings, be it lotteries, scratch cards or casino games. Once you have verified your account, you need to deposit funds into your account to pay for tickets. You can access your game of choice through the website’s front page. Each lottery page contains general information about the lottery, such as its history, rules, next draw date and current jackpot. You may select your own numbers or have the system do it for you. Once you are satisfied with your picks, just press the “Add to Cart” button. Click the Basket button to go through the checkout process.

Once you have paid for your tickets, you will receive a confirmation email regarding your transaction. You may also keep track of your numbers and the draw dates through the website. A notification email will be sent in case your combination garners any winnings. Prizes are credited to the player’s account and smaller prizes are awarded in full. For prizes exceeding €5,000,000, EuroLotto shall pay 10% of the amount immediately, whereas the remaining 90% shall be paid via installment basis over the course of nine years.

EuroLotto will ask for verification before winnings are awarded. For security purposes, users may only withdraw winnings through the same payment method they used to deposit funds into their account.

Navigating The Website

The website’s layout is simple, but enough effort has been put into its design and content to make the company look legitimate. Lotteries, scratchcard games, and casino games can be accessed through the header bar. Users also have easy access to customer support portals as tabs for email support and live chat are located at the right side of the page. Their live chat is open 24/7, which is useful for an international website. The website was tested on several mobile devices and it is quite responsive.

Modes of Payment

Before choosing your preferred mode of payment, remember that EuroLotto only allows withdrawals through the same payment method where you deposited your initial funds to.

Here are the available modes of payment on the website:

• Credit/Debit Cards - VISA, Mastercard
• Bank Transfer
• Skrill (Moneybookers)

Current Promotions

Here are some of the promotions currently up for grabs at the EuroLotto website as of the writing of this review:

• EuroLotto is currently offering 100% cashback for all newcomers. This means that if your ticket doesn’t win any prizes, EuroLotto will refund all lines, no questions asked! The promo only applies to tickets made to lotteries with the nearest draw date. So if you bought a ticket for a June 14 draw and June 18 draw, the former would receive the cashback promotion.
• The website’s instant win and casino games are apparently new additions, so to encourage more players to try them out, EuroLotto is offering 100% bonus on the first deposit. For example, if your first account top up is €100, you’ll get €100 for free so you can try out the website’s new games. Remember that while the promotion is meant to encourage players to try out new games, the deposit bonus can also be used for purchasing lottery tickets as well.

Customer Support

One nice thing about the EuroLotto website is that the email and live chat support tabs are very visible. Their icons are located on the right hand side of the page. According to the website, the live chat support is open 24/7, and while writing this review, we were able to connect to a customer service representative immediately. If their live chat is experiencing downtimes, you can send your concerns through their contact form, or visit their social media accounts on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Review Conclusion

When it comes to website design, EuroLotto looks like the real deal. However, going through their website content and reading up about their mechanics is another thing altogether. While we were researching for this review, we wanted to check if this service purchases tickets on your behalf, or if you were simply betting on a lottery’s outcome. Even going through their terms and conditions, there was a lot of legal mumbo jumbo, but the website’s mechanism was still a mystery. We had to talk to a customer representative via live chat to confirm that the website was a lottery betting site and you do not enter the actual draw. Since a lot of people are confused regarding this, it would have been better if EuroLotto made its mechanics clear as day, especially for newcomers.

However, it was nice that we were able to get in touch with the live chat representative. When conducting these reviews, we do seek the assistance of the website’s customer service portal to clear up some vague terms or answer our questions and most of the time, we find offline live chats and email supports that take days to reply. So being able to get in touch with a customer representative within a few seconds is a plus.

We did ask the customer representative if they had any stories to share about previous winners, and he said it was something he cannot expose. Several online lottery websites do share stories of users who won big prizes, with the names of the users kept secret for privacy. It would have been nice if EuroLotto was able to give people winner testimonials to reassure people of the site’s legitimacy. However, the site is still relatively new compared to other lottery sites so we simply hope that in the future, the company grows and is able to work on the things that it lacks presently.
