European Millionaire Maker
The European Millionaire Maker is a raffle played in all participating EuroMillions countries. It is guaranteed to create multiple millionaires every time it takes place, and has previously paid out as many as 100 prizes on a single night.
There is no additional cost to play the European Millionaire Maker. You are entered directly into the draw if you buy a EuroMillions ticket for the date when it takes place. View the latest results below and keep a regular eye on this page to find out when the next big event will happen.

*Remember that to win a prize you must have a ticket for the applicable draw date, and that the outcome of the checker does not prove you are a winner.

How it Works
The game works in the same way as the UK Millionaire Maker. You receive a unique raffle code alongside every EuroMillions line you play. The code is generated at random and will consist of four letters and five numbers (for example ABCD12345). The first letter of the code corresponds to the country where the ticket was purchased:
Country | Starting Letter of Raffle Code |
---|---|
Austria | A, N, O or W |
Belgium | B |
France | F |
Ireland | I |
Luxembourg | L |
Portugal | P |
Spain | E |
Switzerland | R or S |
United Kingdom | H, J, M, T, V, X or Z |
The winning codes are selected at random from all those that have been entered into the draw across Europe. There is not a pre-determined amount of winners for each country.
You must match one of the winning codes exactly, with each character in the same place, to receive one of the prizes.
When European Millionaire Maker games are held, the code for the European version of the raffle will be the same as the one for your entry into UK Millionaire Maker, giving you yet another chance to win £1 million!
The prize for every winner across Europe is €1 million, but the UK National Lottery tops up the payouts for its winners so they all receive £1 million each.
The odds of winning depend on how many prizes are offered and how many tickets are sold, so they are always different.

100 Millionaires
Every year since 2022, there has been one special edition of the European Millionaire Maker known as a ‘100 Millionaires’ draw. The participating EuroMillions nations put up a prize fund of €100 million, guaranteed to create 100 millionaires across the continent.
These big events spark a surge of ticket sales and the prizes are spread out across the participating countries. In the November 2024 draw, all nine nations had at least one millionaire. The jackpot for this draw was also worth €194 million, setting up the prospect that almost €300 million could be paid out on one night. More than 57 million entries were sold across Europe, but nobody won the jackpot.
25 Millionaires
When the European Millionaire Maker first took place, in October 2016, it promised to create 25 new millionaires. Another draw, in February 2018, also awarded 25 players with €1 million / £1 million.
The promotion only takes place occasionally, when all participating nations are in agreement and there is sufficient money in the Reserve Fund.
