Frequently Asked Questions
What are supplementary numbers?β–Ύ
After the 6 main winning numbers are drawn, 2 supplementary numbers are drawn from the remaining 39 numbers. They are used only to determine Division 2 and Division 5 prizes β€” not the Division 1 jackpot.
What is the difference between Gold Lotto, TattsLotto and Saturday Lotto?β–Ύ
They are the same game with different state-based names. Gold Lotto is used in Queensland, TattsLotto in Victoria/Tasmania/NT/ACT, X Lotto in South Australia, and Saturday Lotto in NSW/WA. The rules, odds, and draw are identical.
Does the jackpot roll over?β–Ύ
Yes. If there are no Division 1 winners, the jackpot rolls over to the following week, increasing the prize pool. Saturday Lotto jackpots can grow to many millions of dollars.
