How to Play Monday Lotto
Start your week with a million-dollar chance
About Monday Lotto
Monday Lotto (Gold Lotto Monday in QLD) draws every Monday at 8:30 PM AEST with a guaranteed $1 million Division 1 prize each week. Same 6/45 format as Saturday Lotto, so if you know one you know the other. The jackpot doesn't roll over — it's $1 million every Monday, win or lose. At $0.65 a game, it's one of the cheapest entries going.
How to Play
Pick 6 numbers from 1 to 45 per game, or QuickPick for random numbers. Games cost $0.65 each. Draw works the same as Saturday Lotto — 6 winning numbers plus 2 supplementaries from a barrel of 45. Match all 6 for Division 1. Tickets available at any outlet or online through The Lott. Sales close around 7:25 PM AEST on Mondays.
Number Selection
- Select 6 main numbers from 1 to 45
- 2 supplementary numbers are drawn automatically
Odds and Prize Divisions
Same structure as Saturday Lotto: Division 1 is 1 in 8,145,060, Division 2 is 1 in 678,755, all the way down to about 1 in 85 for any prize. The $1 million prize is guaranteed and doesn't jackpot. If multiple people win Division 1, they split the pool evenly.
| Statistic | Value |
|---|---|

| Prize Divisions | 6 |
| Starting Jackpot | $1 Million |
Tips for Playing Monday Lotto
Monday Lotto suits players who want a reliable weekly shot without the huge jackpot hype. You know it's $1 million every time. At $0.65 a game, it's hard to beat on value. Some players like to run the same numbers week after week — it doesn't change the maths, but plenty of winners have done it that way.
