How to Play 'Play Your Date'

Play Your Date requires you to choose a day, a month, and a year instead of just picking numbers like in a traditional lottery.

It’s an online-only game, so you won’t be able to buy tickets at a local retailer. Instead, you can play anywhere, at any time you prefer.

Draws take place every day at 8:30 PM. You can submit your entries until 8:28 PM, at a cost of just €0.50 per date entered.

Step-by-Step Guide

To select your date, choose one number from each of the three fields: one for the day, one for the month, and one for the year. You can only select actual calendar days — for example, you can choose 31 January but not 31 February. For the year, the range is 00 to 99.

You can enter your dates for multiple consecutive draws: 2, 3, 5, 10, or 15.

Visit the dedicated Lotteria Italia page.

To confirm your entry, just a simple tap is enough, and you’ll also see if you’ve won an instant prize of €1. This prize will be credited directly to your gaming account. Instant prizes are awarded randomly.

How to Win 'Play Your Date'

There are three prize categories. You must guess the full date to win or share the jackpot, but you can also win by guessing the day and month, or just the year.

Go to the Winning Odds page to check out the prizes you could win, and the chances of winning for each category.

The first prize is estimated at around €3,000 (but this varies from one draw to the next), and all winnings are automatically paid to your online account. If you win more than €5,200, you can collect the money at a designated payment point or at one of the Sisal lottery offices in Milan or Rome.
