Regulation1 min read

Spain’s Secretary of State for Social Rights approved changes to ONCE’s Eurojackpot, taking effect on 29 May 2027, with the first draw under the new rules on 1 June. Each ticket will cost €3: €2.50 goes to the shared draw and 50 cents to a mandatory Spain-only draw, which pays €3 if the ticket wins no other prize and its assigned number is drawn.

Spain’s Secretary of State for Social Rights has approved changes to ONCE’s Eurojackpot game. The changes take effect on 29 May 2027, with the first draw under the new rules on 1 June 2027.

The price of a ticket will rise from €2 to €3. Of the new price, €2.50 pays for the common draw held in every country where Eurojackpot is sold. The remaining 50 cents pays for a new Spain-only draw called the Lucky Number. Participation in that draw is mandatory for anyone buying Eurojackpot in Spain.

ONCE’s central gaming control system assigns each ticket a random number from one to nine, whether bought at a sales point or through JuegosONCE.es. A player receives a fixed €3 prize if that number is drawn and the ticket has won no other prize. Prizes from the two draws cannot be combined.

For someone buying one ticket for each Tuesday and Friday draw, the increase will add €2 a week.
