SuperEnalotto is one of Italy’s most popular national lottery games.
SuperEnalotto costs €1.00 to enter, with draws taking place three times a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 20:00 local time. Ticket sales end at 19:30 local time on draw days, with online entry from abroad ending several hours earlier.
To enter SuperEnalotto, choose six numbers between 1 and 90, or go for a Quick Pick to play with randomly generated numbers. A seventh number called the Jolly Number is drawn, with players matching it against their six choices for a chance to win the second prize.
For an extra €0.50, a SuperStar number can be played alongside the regular numbers, which multiplies existing SuperEnalotto payouts and guarantees a prize if matched.

Prizes are taxed at source, which also applies to players entering SuperEnalotto from abroad, who need to check local tax laws to find out if additional tax is applicable at home.
