How does Set For Life work?

Set For Life is unique among UK lotteries as it’s the only one that pays winners regular sums over an extended period of time. If you’ve ever played Lotto, EuroMillions, or any of the National Lottery’s other draw games, you’ll already be familiar with how Set For Life works. You simply pick a series of numbers with the aim of matching them with the winning numbers randomly selected in the draw you enter.

When it comes to the payouts, things work a little differently. Instead of receiving a big lump sum for winning the jackpot, you will receive a set amount every month over a certain period of time. Winners of the top prize can expect to receive £10,000 every single month for 30 years, which works out at a total payout of £3.6 million, while winners of the second prize get £10,000 a month for one year, totalling £120,000.
