These terms and conditions apply to the 201. Lottery (from 10.11.2025) and supersede all previous ones.By participating in the class lottery, participants acknowledge the following conditions and commit to complying with them.
The legal basis for conducting the class lottery is the Gambling Act 1989, BGBl. No. 620/1989 in the applicable version.
The operation of the class lottery is an exclusive right of the federal government. The "Austrian Lotteries Company m.b.H." (with registered office in Vienna, registered in the commercial register of the Vienna Commercial Court under FN 54472 g, hereinafter referred to as "Company") is authorized to conduct the class lottery pursuant to the concession granted to it.
For the conduct of the class lottery, the Company must establish terms and conditions that are valid in their most recently published version. The validity of the terms and conditions takes effect on the day following their publication in the digital official gazette of the Republic of Austria (www.evi.gv.at). The participant acknowledges them as binding upon purchase of the ticket.
The class lottery is a lottery where ticket shares have winning chances in several successive sections. The wins are determined through public draws.
A ticket bears one of the numbers 1 to 250,000, the designation of the class, the facsimile of the Company's board and the name of the issuing business office. The issue takes place either in whole tickets (10 ticket shares of one ticket number), in half tickets (5 ticket shares of one ticket number), in tenth tickets or in several tenth tickets. The ticket shares of a number are distinguished by the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
The gaming capital amounts to EUR 225,000,000 for all six classes. The payout ratio is 54% of sales.
5.1 The ticket price (the class contribution) amounts to EUR 150 for each of the six classes for the whole ticket, therefore EUR 75 for the half ticket and EUR 15 for the tenth ticket and must be paid at the latest on the day before the 1st draw date of each class. For transfers or deposits, the date of submission at bank or post office applies. This ensures the right to a win and to the acquisition of the ticket of the same number for the next class.
5.2 If the ticket price is paid only after this date, the participant acquires - provided this ticket number has not already been legitimately resold - from the draw date following the deposit the right to a win and to the acquisition of the ticket of the same number for the next class.
5.3 The business offices of the class lottery do not assume liability for improperly executed transfers.
5.4 Anyone who acquires a ticket from the 2nd to 6th class that they have not played in the immediately preceding class (ticket repurchase) must pay the ticket price for the classes already played. A ticket acquired pursuant to point 5.4 is eligible for prizes from the draw date following the payment date. The acquirer has no right to any prizes that may have previously fallen on the ticket.
5.5 All tickets participate continuously in the game and can win multiple times on every draw date except for the four lowest prize categories on 17.11., 15.12.2025, 12.1., 9.2., 9.3. and 7.4.2026. On 20.04.2026 all tickets can win multiple times. On all other draw dates, tickets can win multiple times except for the lowest prize category.
5.6 The sale of tickets above or below the fixed price is prohibited.
5.7 Credited amounts originating from previous wins that are not sufficient to pay for all played (purchased) tickets are applied to the ticket price of these winning tickets for the next class, then in ascending number order to the ticket price of the remaining ordered (purchased) tenth ticket shares up to the last fully paid ticket number share. This also applies to whole and half tickets consisting of 10 or 5 tenth ticket shares respectively. Non-applicable partial amounts are to be credited to the participant. All other credited amounts that are not sufficient to pay for all played (purchased) tenth ticket shares are applied in ascending order of the ordered (purchased) tickets up to the last fully paid ticket number share. Non-applicable partial amounts are to be credited to the participant.
5.8 If the Company provides participants with free tickets of the class lottery or free tickets of an additional class for special occasions, the Company only funds the share of the prize sum falling on these free class tickets. Provided free tickets may not be transferred and will also not be redeemed in cash.
6.1 Ticket distribution is carried out by the business offices of the class lottery and their contractual partners (class ticket sales offices).
6.2 A lump-sum cost compensation of EUR 3 per class must be paid for prize plan and prize lists or their dispatch including ticket dispatch or depot confirmation dispatch. Further expenses initiated by the participant are to be reimbursed separately.
6.3 The collection of tickets from depot takes place free of charge against issuance of a depot confirmation.
7.1 The business offices offer their customers the same ticket numbers (regular tickets) for the next lottery as far as possible. However, there is no right to allocation of a specific ticket number for the next lottery.
7.2 Tickets of the 6th class may only be issued once the ticket prices of all classes have been fully paid. At the latest at this point, any expense arrears must also be paid.
7.3 Tickets paid in time pursuant to point 5 of the terms and conditions guarantee the claim to the ticket of the same number for the next class. Tickets not paid in time can be sold to new participants.
7.4 If the legitimately requested ticket cannot be delivered, the participant has the right to the double number of ticket shares of other numbers or to the repurchase price of these ticket shares. Further claims for damages cannot be made.
8.1 All draws are public and take place pursuant to § 16 para. 10 Gambling Act, BGBl. No. 620/1989 in the respectively applicable version under supervision of a public notary on the days specified in the prize plan at 9.00 a.m. in the drawing hall of the Austrian Lotteries Company m.b.H., 1030 Vienna, Rennweg 44. Time and place of the final draw will be announced at the latest one day before the start of the 6th class in the official gazette of the Republic of Austria (www.evi.gv.at).
8.2 All prizes are determined with an electronic random number generator. Prize categories in which 250 or more prizes are drawn are determined by three-digit end numbers. All prizes that are not determined by drawing a three-digit end number are determined by drawing six-digit ticket numbers. All prizes (except final draw) are determined in descending value.
8.3 The million prizes of the final draw are determined in ascending value by drawing six-digit ticket numbers.
8.4 For the draws of the class lottery, the provisions of the draw procedure in the applicable version that have been brought to the attention of the Austrian Tax Office apply. The public notary decides definitively on the validity of a draw excluding legal recourse. The draw results are published by the Company in a suitable manner.
After each class, a prize list is published, which is sent to mail-order players. It can also be purchased at the business offices (EUR 0.20 each for the 1st to 5th class or EUR 0.30 for the 6th class) or is available for inspection.
10.1 All prize amounts listed in the prize plan are euro amounts. All prizes are paid out tax-free by the business office where the ticket was purchased, except for Gold Class prizes, against presentation of the winning tickets or depot confirmations issued to the participant.
10.2 If payment is requested by post or bank transfer, it takes place at the winner's risk and expense. For partial tickets, the share corresponding to the contribution applies.
10.3 Prize payments from EUR 1,000.10 take place exclusively against presentation of a valid official photo ID. There is no obligation to verify the presenter's entitlement. However, prize payment can be withheld if there are doubts about the entitlement to dispose. No payment is made on a ticket whose number or authenticity cannot be reliably determined; it is to be treated like a lost ticket (see point 12).
11.1 The prizes of the respective classes are payable from the day after next following the respective draw.
11.2 Prize claims that are not asserted by participants within three years after the last draw date of the respective class are used entirely by the Company for the benefit of participants in the Company's lotteries. The procedure regarding the deadline for the provision of participants' services and the amount of allocation of benefits is to be determined in each individual case. The proper use is checked annually by a certified public accountant. All unclaimed prizes are to be allocated to the proper use within three years of their occurrence.
12.1 Participants must immediately, but in any case within the payment deadline, notify the business office in writing of any loss of tickets or depot confirmations. Their rights regarding claim to the ticket of the same number and prize payment thereby remain preserved, provided that the ticket number for the next class or the prize has not already been issued to the presenter of the ticket before notification of the loss.
12.2 Prize payment on a ticket that has been lost takes place only against presentation of a signed receipt of the loss reporter within the payment deadline. Legalization of the signature on the receipt may be required.
13.1 The Company does not assume liability for actions and omissions of the business offices and their class ticket sales offices as well as all offices commissioned by them that are not provided for in the terms and conditions or contradict them.

13.2 The business offices and their class ticket sales offices are only liable for intent and gross negligence.
13.3 Any complaints against the business offices are to be directed to the Company.
