How to Check If You’ve Won EuroMillions

Checking a EuroMillions ticket takes less than a minute. You need to match your five main numbers and two Lucky Stars against the numbers drawn — and you win a prize for as few as two main numbers.

Step 1 — Find the result for your draw date

Use the date printed on your ticket. The most recent draw was Friday 19 June 2026, and you can find any past draw in the results archive. Each result page lists the five main numbers, the two Lucky Stars, and the full prize breakdown.

Step 2 — Match your numbers

Compare your line to the drawn numbers. The order doesn’t matter — only how many you match. Count your main numbers and your Lucky Stars separately.

Step 3 — Check the prize tiers

EuroMillions has 13 prize tiers. The jackpot needs all five main numbers plus both Lucky Stars. The smallest prize needs just two main numbers. See the full table on our odds page, or the exact prize amounts for your draw on its result page.

Step 4 — Use the free Number Checker

The quickest way: enter your line into our Number Checker. It checks your numbers against every draw since 2004 and shows your best ever match — handy if you play the same numbers every week.

Claiming your prize

Where and how you claim depends on the country you bought the ticket in and the amount. Small prizes are often paid automatically online or in cash at a shop; bigger wins are claimed from the national operator. Claim deadlines differ by country — see the country guides for details, and don’t leave it too late.

FAQ

How long do I have to claim a EuroMillions prize?

Claim windows vary by country, but most operators allow between 90 and 365 days from the draw date. Check the rules of the country where you bought the ticket and claim as early as you can.

Do I win anything with just the two Lucky Stars?

No. The smallest prize needs at least two main numbers. Matching two main numbers (with no stars) is the most common win.

How are small prizes paid out?

Small prizes are usually credited to your online account automatically, or paid in cash at a retailer. Larger amounts are paid by the national operator, often after an in-person validation.
