Cash4Life Lotto Help & FAQ

How does betting on Cash4Life work?

Inspired by the NY lottery, Cash4Life allows players to pick 5 numbers plus a Cash Ball, with winners determined by our independent Random Number Generator (RNG). The amount of money that you win is determined by the amount of numbers that you correctly guess.

How do I choose a line and place a bet?

Choose 5 numbers from a main pool of 1–60 and a further Cash Ball number from a pool of 1–4. You can also select the QuickPick option (Quick+1) and this will automatically choose the numbers for you. Once you have chosen your numbers, select which draw you want to bet on. Press Submit and this will take you to the cart – at this stage just click Confirm and proceed to place your bet.

How many lines can be purchased in a single bet?

You can purchase up to 6 lines of numbers on a single betslip.

How does a system bet work?

A system bet allows you to choose more than the standard 5 main numbers to create multiple combinations of lines, increasing your chances of winning. For example, if you choose 6 main numbers and a Cash Ball, the system will automatically generate all possible 5-number combinations from your selection.

How does the Auto renew option work?

The Auto renew option allows you to automatically renew your bet for every draw. By selecting this, your chosen numbers will be entered into each consecutive draw, and the cost will be automatically billed at the start of each billing period. This ensures your participation remains active until you choose to cancel the subscription.

What are the Duration options?

The Duration feature allows you to choose how many consecutive draws you would like to participate in with a single purchase. You can select a fixed period (for example, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or up to 24 weeks).
