EnglishPlay Your Date Winning Odds
To win a prize in a Play Your Date draw, you need to guess all or part of the winning date selected each evening at 8:30 PM. The overall odds of winning any prize are 1 in 8.9.
You must correctly guess the day, month, and year to win the first prize, valued at approximately €3,000. The table below shows all the different ways to win and the odds for each category.
| Prize Category | Winning Odds | Prizes |
|---|---|---|
| Day/Month/Year | 1 in 36,500 | €3,000 (estimated) |
| Day/Month | 1 in 369 | €25.00 |
| Year | 1 in 100 | €10.00 |
| Instant Wins | 1 in 10 | €1.00 |
The total prize pool is made up of 71% of the revenue generated from ticket sales. Most of it is set aside to pay the prizes for that particular draw, but a small portion is also allocated to a "Restart Fund," ensuring there is always at least €1,000 available for jackpot winners.
If there are insufficient funds to pay the €25 and €10 prizes for second- and third-tier winners, a proportional share of the prize pool is awarded at each level instead.
Instant prizes are awarded randomly. Winning or not winning an instant prize does not affect your chances of winning in the main draw.
