The brand is the trading name of the Annexio Group of Companies, which is licensed and regulated in Great Britain by the UK Gambling Commission under account number 51692.

What is LottoGo.com and how does it work?

If you are under the misconception that LottoGo.com is a scam that attempts to sell tickets for lotteries that are unavailable to players in the UK, allow us to clear this up! At LottoGo.com, you are not purchasing official lottery tickets and we do not operate a lottery. Instead of purchasing a physical lottery ticket, you place a bet on the numbers you think will be drawn in the official lottery draw. Official tickets and insurance are purchased by LottoGo.com based on the bets placed so that all winnings are equal to the cash option of national lottery winnings. If your bet matches the winning numbers, you win a prize equivalent to the official lottery's jackpot or any other tiered prize you have bet on.

LottoGo.com is not connected to, or affiliated with, any lottery body or organisation, and does not offer lottery betting on EuroMillions in the UK. At LottoGo.com, when UK players confirm their numbers for EuroMillions or UK Lotto, we purchase official tickets for the draw on the player’s behalf.

How safe is LottoGo.com to use?

LottoGo.com provides a secure and trustworthy platform for users to participate in lotteries without physically purchasing tickets and we take the security of our player details and accounts very seriously. We protect all customer data from access by third parties using the latest encoders, which are on a par with international banking safety standards. We are constantly protecting the security of our members’ information during all transmission using Secure Socket Layers (SSL) software on our website which encrypts the information entered by them.

What are the advantages of lottery betting at LottoGo.com?

There are lots of benefits when it comes to playing at LottoGo.com, here are a few of our favourites:

1. As most lotteries require for you to be a resident of the country in which they’re drawn, many of the world’s biggest jackpot amounts have been out of reach – including the famous US Mega Millions and Powerball billion-dollar rollovers. Through lottery betting, you get the chance to get your hands on life-changing jackpot amounts which geographical restrictions would usually prevent from happening!
2. Most national lotteries are restricted by official ‘caps’ on the jackpots – but as a lottery betting provider, LottoGo.com is free to boost its jackpot amounts. So don’t be surprised if you see jackpots advertised on our website that are much higher than any official jackpot – it’ll be a ‘Super Jackpot’!
3. We give our members fantastic helpings of bonuses, discounts, promotions, free bets, and automatic syndicates (just to name a few), which you wouldn't find offered by a traditional lottery or in your local shop.
4. Being totally online, LottoGo.com customers have games organised at their very fingertips – with new jackpots to bet on, all their upcoming and past bets, results, and winnings! What’s more, you’ll can’t lose a paper slip.
5. Above all else, betting with us is safe and secure, with winnings added automatically to your player account.

Which lottery jackpots can I bet on at LottoGo.com?

LottoGoGetters across the UK can unlock access to a fantastic selection of over 20 lotteries to bet on! Whether you’re looking for the biggest jackpot, the cheapest cost, the best odds, the best promotion, or just the next available game, LottoGo.com has it all.

From daily draws on Cash4Life, to twice-daily draws on Daily Million, UK players are never far away from the next chance to hit lucky with their bet. Some of the most popular games to bet on at LottoGo.com for UK players include Mega Millions, Powerball, SuperEnalotto, Cash4Life, and EuroJackpot.

Players can choose either to bet on a single line of numbers or with a syndicate. Each syndicate at LottoGo.com gives a player 10 chances to win a share of the advertised jackpot amount!

How can you afford to pay such huge jackpot amounts?

LottoGo.com uses an insurance model which allows us to insure each bet made by a customer and offer players the ability to win equivalent jackpot amounts to some of the world’s biggest and best lotteries. Bigger jackpot wins are covered by this model whereas prizes below, or equal to, £50,000 (or currency equivalent) will be paid out from LottoGo.com to customers automatically, being credited to their LottoGo.com player account to be withdrawn at any time. All winnings can be withdrawn in accordance with LottoGo.com’s Player Terms and Conditions.

Why do the price of Powerball & Mega Millions bets increase sometimes at LottoGo.com?

The record-breaking American Mega Millions and Powerball jackpots can soar into the billions! As we insure our jackpots to be able to pay out to members who match the winning numbers with their bets, the insurance costs inevitably rise when the jackpots get particularly high. In these circumstances, LottoGo.com applies a small increase to the cost of bets on these draws in order to continue to operate our product that customers know and love - and be able to pay out such huge jackpots! Generally, unless these rare gigantic rollovers are taking place, our prices remain at the same base cost.

If I win an American jackpot amount at LottoGo.com, do I have to pay US taxes?

No, UK customers don’t pay taxes to any other countries if they win a LottoGo.com jackpot with their bet. However, on most jackpot games at LottoGo.com, winnings are paid out to customers as though they’d played in the official lotteries.

This means that on some games, including the American Powerball and Mega Millions, the same deductions and local tax amounts applied to official winner’s prize money would be reflected in the prize amounts paid out by LottoGo.com. Details of any deductions that may be applied to winnings are shown on each jackpot game at LottoGo.com, as well as in the dedicated Odds & Prizes area. All winners will be fully informed of the details if there are any deductions/taxes on their winnings.

Where can I read trusted reviews about LottoGo.com?

Ensuring you are referring to reputable review sites is crucial when seeking information about LottoGo.com. Fake review sites found in Google search can be misleading and potentially lead you astray. To safeguard yourself from unreliable sources, we advise checking the site’s credibility.
