Daily Play Info

The Daily Play game has got to be one of the most appealing games to come out of the National Lottery stable, not as you might believe because the prize fund is going to make you a millionaire (jackpot prize is around £30,000). No, the most attractive aspects to playing daily play is firstly because the odds of a win are so good but secondly that if you are unlucky and get no numbers matching then you still win a free ‘lucky Dip’ ticket for the next daily lottery game, making this a very reasonable proposition.

The principle of the game is remarkably simplistic with numbers being selected from 1-27 or if you prefer you can opt for the Lucky Dip option. The Lucky Dip function uses a virtual ‘toaster’ which propels a piece of cooked toast out on the click of your mouse with your number on it (if you leave the toast in too long then it pops up automatically, though a little scorched!)- it is worth playing daily play just for the fun factor of this alone!

There is a daily lottery draw every day except Sunday and Christmas Day meaning you can enjoy the excitement of the lottery practically every day (not just twice a week), visit the Daily Play page at the National Lottery website to purchase your tickets or at various retail outlets. Purchasing online is really easy once you have opened an account, you can select what days you want to play or select all six days available. Then it is a simple case of sitting back and waiting to see if you have won, if you play online you will of course be notified. As with other National lottery games it is possible for you to participate in daily play lottery games via text message once your account is opened. There are no live televised draws for the daily play game on the BBC, but you are able to watch the draw via webcast, Monday to Friday from 9.30pm and Saturday’s results will be given via the usual lottery draw show on BBC One.

Daily Play brings you a little bit of the National Lottery magic every day, allowing you to be relaxed in the knowledge that no only are you in with a chance of winning a tidy sum and with a completely reputable company, but also that you are helping good causes all over the country with the usual 28p of each ticket sale helping others.
