Now you too can play and win your share of at least Au$9.7 Million every week in the Australian Lottery. This payout is 55% of the total Lottery earnings - compared to only 45% paid out in many European Lottos and only 50% paid out in most North American Lottos.
You can play the Australian Lotto - from wherever in the world you may be- through the services of Overseas Subscribers Agents. Just pick a subscription that suits you, and for each Game, simply pick 6 numbers from 1 to 45.
With only 6 main numbers from 45 to choose from (no extra Powerballs, Mega balls or Lucky Stars) the Australian Lotto has - hands-down - the best winning odds of all Pick-6 lottos in the world.
The Australian National Lottery has five prize divisions.

How to Play: For a standard game, you choose 5 numbers from 1 to 45 and a Powerball number from a second range of 1 to 45.
