The holidays are heating up with Lottoland’s international lotteries reaching some all-time highs, particularly one of them. The infamous Spanish Christmas Lottery is unlike any other lottery in the world in terms of fair play – it has a unique system for dividing the winnings!

It claims to be the biggest lotto online with its pot of €2.3 billion. This is pretty big for only one person, and that’s why the Spanish Lottery decided to share that prize between a group of people! Essentially, a player’s ticket can have the same value as others in its ‘series,’ which is up to 165 tickets. All of these lucky people are winners of the same €2.3 billion grand prize if they get lucky!

Previously, the Christmas Lottery was only available in Spain, but Lottoland made it possible for more people to partake in the Christmas joy - even if they’re from outside the country. The Spanish Christmas Lottery is now available online, where people from New Zealand or Australia can also bet on the “El Gordo” top prize. These people also share in the same magnificent odds that the Spanish Lottery gives.

Even if ticket holders miss out on the El Gordo, there are excellent lower tier prizes to be won under the same odds. An estimated 1,800 numbers are picked and all of these have equal chances to win the disputed jackpots, valued at €1,000 to €4 million. If you thought the El Gordo odds were already impressive, take a look at those of the lower prizes—online lottery players each have a 1-in-7 chance to go home with a prize!

In Spain, the lottery has become a beloved Christmas tradition. It is held a few days before Christmas, with the proceeds’ beneficiaries playing a special role during the lottery draw. It’s a well-awaited event in Spain, and you can take part in it by betting on Lottoland! To learn more, just visit https://www.lottoland.com/nz/christmas-lottery today!
