UK Lotto number generator

Lotto is the National Lottery’s main game. A line costs £2: you choose six numbers from 1 to 59, and the draws take place on Wednesday and Saturday at 8pm. Since 7 June 2026, every line plays in two rounds. Each round has its own six main numbers and its own Bonus Ball, drawn on separate machines, and you can win in one round, the other, or both.

The prizes stay simple. Six main numbers win or share the jackpot, which starts at £2 million and rolls over at most five times before a Must Be Won draw. Five numbers plus the Bonus Ball pay a fixed £1 million. Matching two, three, four or five numbers pays a fixed cash prize in each round.

Press Quick pick for six different numbers in order, on up to 10 lines. There is no Bonus Ball to choose: it is drawn from the balls left in the machine and only counts for the 5 + Bonus prize, so the generator gives you six numbers, like a Lucky Dip.

The odds below count both rounds, which is why they are about twice as good as the old figures. One line now wins something about once in 4.9 draws.

Tips that actually hold up

  • Two rounds, one line. You don’t need two lines to play both rounds: every £2 line is in both automatically.
  • Sharing only matters for the jackpot. The lower prizes are fixed, so the numbers you choose change nothing there. For the jackpot, avoiding birthday dates and neat patterns makes a split less likely, without changing your chance of winning.
  • Rolldowns are shared. If nobody wins a Must Be Won draw, the jackpot rolls down to the lower prizes, so more players get more.
  • Old numbers are just old numbers. No ball is “due” after a long absence.

You must be 18 or over to play National Lottery games. Set a weekly limit and keep to it. If gambling is causing problems, the National Gambling Helpline is free and confidential on 0808 8020 133.

Questions

What are the odds of winning the Lotto jackpot?

1 in 45,057,474 in each round. Since every line now plays two rounds, that is about 1 in 22.5 million per £2 line.

Why doesn’t the generator give a Bonus Ball?

Because players don’t choose one. The Bonus Ball is drawn from the remaining balls after the six main numbers, and it only matters for the £1 million 5 + Bonus prize.

When is Lotto drawn?

Every Wednesday and Saturday at 8pm, with two rounds at each draw.

Is this the same as a Lucky Dip?

It works the same way: six random numbers with no repeats. A Lucky Dip line and a line from this page have exactly the same chance.

Is this lottery number generator free?

Yes. It is free to use, funded by advertising, with no account and no app to install. It does not sell tickets and has no link with any lottery operator.
