3D Lotto FAQs – All Questions about 3D Lotto Answered here

How can I win prizes in 3D Lotto?

You win a prize by playing 3D Lotto in either Straight (Standard) Play or Rambolito Play.

In Straight Play, you mark three (3) numbers, one for each column consisting of digits 0 to 9.

If your entry matches the 3D winning numbers in exact order, you win PhP 4,500.

The Standard/Straight Play is the default option unless you select Rambolito option in your play card.

In Rambolito Play, you still receive a prize regardless if your marked number combination does not match the winning numbers in exact order. However, the prizes in Rambolito Play are much less than in the Straight Play.

With Rambolito, you play either Rambolito 6 in case your selected number combination has no repeating digits, or Rambolito 3 in case your selected combination has one repeating digit.

If your combination matches the 3D results in any order, you win either PhP 1,500 (Rambolito 3) or PhP 750 (Rambolito 6).

In Rambolito 3, you select a number combination with one repeating digit and another digit (e.g. 1-1-3), creating a total of three (3) number combinations. If any of your number combination matches the 3D winning numbers in any order, you take home a prize of PhP 1,500.

To play Rambolito, mark the Rambolito option in the 3D Lotto playing card.
