Ranked and Rated Online Lottery Sites in United Kingdom

We list the lottery sites we rank whose terms accept players from the United Kingdom, in order of our score. A site whose terms exclude the United Kingdom is left out. Sites change their country lists, so check again when you sign up. How we score sites is on how we rank. Sites for other countries are on our lottery platforms by country page.

The gambling law we hold for the United Kingdom is the Gambling Act 2005 (2005 c. 19). We have not verified a rule on buying lottery tickets from sites abroad for the United Kingdom yet, so check the law where you live before you buy.

The minimum age for online gambling in the United Kingdom is 18.

Your local currency is the British Pound. Draws from the US, such as Powerball and Mega Millions, set their prices and prizes in US dollars, so the exchange rate changes what a line costs you and what a prize is worth.

No. The odds are set by the draw, not by the site. What differs between sites is the price per line and the fees, so compare those rather than the jackpot. Most lines win nothing; see responsible gambling for limits and help.

Every site we rank shows the licence it holds. A complaint about a payment or a prize goes to the site first, then to the body that licenses it, so check that licence before you deposit.

We publish draw numbers for UK lotteries on their own result pages. Each page lists the latest draw first. Compare your ticket against the UK Lotto results after every draw, and read the guide to tax on lottery winnings before you claim a prize abroad. In the United Kingdom, gambling winnings for customers are tax-free regardless of the amount won, but other countries may tax a prize differently.
