Updated Prizes for 6/45 Mega Lotto

PCSO employs a prize system for 6/45 Mega Lotto based on ‘pari mutuel’ wagering system. Parimutuel works by pooling all lottery bets in a certain draw, then dividing the pool by the total number of winners.

Here is the prize range of the 6/45 Lotto:

  • In case your number matches six (6) out of the six (6) winning numbers in any order, you hit the current jackpot for the Mega Lotto game. Starting jackpot is PhP 8,910,000 but this amount gets larger every time no one gets the jackpot.
  • If you got five (5) of the six (6) winning numbers, you get the prize in the amount of PhP 32,000.
  • If you got four (4) numbers of the winning combination, you win a fixed amount of PhP 1,000.
  • Getting three (3) out of the six (6) winning numbers wins you a prize of PhP 30.

Note that prizes above PhP 10,000 are subject to 20% tax.

Megalotto 6/45 System Bets – How to Increase your Odds of Winning the Jackpot

6/45 Lotto System Bets allow players to pick more than the typical six (6) numbers per draw, thereby increasing their chances of winning the jackpot.

The system bets available in 6/45 Lotto are System 7, System 8, System 9, System 10, System 11, System 12 and System 5-Roll (System 5R).

In System 7, a bettor marks seven (7) numbers which creates a total of seven (7) combinations. With System 8, on the other hand, the bettor chooses a total of eight (8) numbers producing a total of 28 combinations.

In short, more and more number combinations are generated as the marked numbers increase. This same rule applies to the rest of the remaining system bets.

With System 5-Roll, the player will only need to pick five (5) numbers. The remaining (unmarked) 40 numbers will be partnered with the 5 picked numbers. This generates a total of 40 combinations.

Keep in mind that your total ticket cost will be much higher in system bets because of the higher number of combinations you will place your bet on. The total cost of the ticket shall be PhP 20 times the number of combinations produced.
