How to Play Malta Lotto?

Malta Lotto has you picking five numbers in the range from one to 90. There are three types of winning combinations chosen for every single drawing – Prima, Ambo, and Terno.

Each of these entries comes with a minimum bet submission of 0.5, one, two, or three dollars respectively. The minimum bet for the Prima, Ambo, and Terno submissions is 0.5 euros. For Quaterno Plus, you will need to place a minimum bet of two euros.

Every single time, there will be three additional balls drawn on top of the main ones. The total number of chosen digits will reach eight, and these will determine the range of prize tiers.

To play Malta Lotto, you will have to choose among the four common lottery options:

• You can place a bet on the first number drawn (Prima)
• You can place a bet on two of the five numbers drawn (Ambo)
• You can place a bet on three of the five numbers drawn (Terno)
• You can place a bet on any five of the eight numbers that will be drawn (Quaterno Plus)

Apart from opting for the standard entries, players can also choose to submit a system.

A system Malta lottery entry increases the odds of winning because the player will feature more numbers than the ones required for the specific type of bet.

Choosing more than one number, for example, qualifies as a system in the case of a Prima submission. For Ambo, the player will have to choose more than two numbers, for Terno – more than three and for Quaterno Plus – more than five.

Players who don’t have their numbers can opt for a quick pick standard ticket or a quick pick system. They will simply need to choose the type of bet and the ticket will be generated automatically by the software at the retail venue.

There’s one final option that players can enable before their ticket is finalized – the multiplier. A Malta Lotto multiplier will increase the basic stake by anywhere between x2 and x10.

To acquire a ticket, players will have to visit one of the Maltco Lotteries Limited retail venues throughout Malta and Gozo. A complete list of all the retail venues is available on the organization’s official website. Ticket sales stop approximately one hour before the draw on Saturday.
