Magnum mGold

For you to participate in mGold, you should be at least 21 years of age. Tickets can be bought at any Magnum agent countrywide as long as playing lotto is consistent with your conviction and religion. The agents operate from Monday to Sunday save for Thursday which is an official rest day. On Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, tickets go on sale up to 7 p.m. On non-draw days, agents keep shorter hours most of them closing by 5 p.m. This means you should buy your tickets in good time.

In the spirit of responsible play, you are allowed to buy mGold tickets up to a value of Rm 200,000. However, to manage exposure, you should combine both Lucky Pick option and manual picking. This tends to significantly reduce bias in your number selection.

In case you want to participate in future draws, Magnum allows you to buy advance mGold tickets up to 5 consecutive draws. The advantage of advance plays is that it gives you the convenience of not having to visit Magnum 4D outlets every now and then. Additionally, playing advance draws gives you a very good chance of securing the numbers you have always wanted to play.

To prevent cases of fraud, you are advised to buy tickets only from authorized Magnum outlets. Tickets obtained fraudulently cannot be presented for prize claims. The beauty is that the mGold tickets you buy already include a gaming and GST tax component, which means you won’t pay more than the face value of the ticket.

Even if you are a foreigner and you want to take part in mGold, opportunities abound as long as you purchase your ticket through legal outlets.

As stated earlier, draws are held 3 times per week. In addition, special draws are usually held by permission from the treasury department. Most of the special draws are held to coincide with major occasions such as Mooncake Festival, Chinese New Year, Hungry Ghost Festival among others. All draws are held starting from 7 p.m. It is for this reason that you cannot buy tickets past 7 p.m. on draw days.

The venue for all draws is the Magnum draw auditorium located in Wisma Magnum on the ground floor. Members of the public are always invited to attend as part of the transparency policy. Draws are usually conducted by the responsible Magnum officers assisted by members of the public randomly selected. The winning numbers are drawn from electrotechnical drums that are see-through. The drums are remotely controlled and no human contact is involved.

Once the draw is conducted, results are displayed immediately on a board at Wisma Magnum. Also, the result are published immediately on the official Magnum website. In case you are registered for the mail service, the results will be delivered to you through email as well. Other ways you can access the results is through SMS and the Magnum App available on both iOS and Android.

The following is the mGold prize structure.

• If you match all the 6 numbers drawn, you win 0.05 of Jackpot Gold 1 and an additional Rm 100,000.
• If you match the first 5 or last 5 of the numbers drawn, you win Rm 8,388.
• If you match 4 numbers, you win Rm 338.
• If you match 3 numbers, you win Rm 38.

The prize structure of this game is based on the results of Magnum 4D game.
