How do you play Lotto Max?

Lotto Max draws happen on Tuesdays and Fridays in Canada.

You now get four sets of numbers for every $6 play that you buy, and each set has seven numbers from 1 to 52.

Here’s what matching numbers could win you:

• 7/7 — jackpot
• 6/7 plus bonus — approximately 18.50% of the prize pool
• 6/7 — approximately 18.85% of the prize pool
• 5/7 plus bonus — approximately 12.25% of the prize pool
• 5/7 — approximately 27.50% of the prize pool
• 4/7 plus bonus — approximately 22.90% of the prize pool
• 4/7 — $20
• 3/7 plus bonus — $20
• 3/7 — free play ($6 value)

The jackpot starts at $10 million and can go up to $90 million.

Once the jackpot reaches $50 million, there are also Maxmillions available to be won, which are additional $1 million prizes.

All three sets of numbers you get with a $5 play are eligible for both the main draw and the Maxmillions draw when the jackpot reaches $50 million.

You need to match all seven numbers on one line of your ticket to win a Maxmillions prize.

There are also new $100,000 cash prizes with every draw. The number of MaxPlus prizes available to be won increases with the jackpot.

Tickets are sold until 10:30 p.m. ET on Tuesdays and Fridays, which is when the Lotto Max winning numbers are drawn.
