The UK National Lottery was launched in November 1994 to give players the chance to win life-changing prizes. Of all money spent on National Lottery games, around 53% goes to the prize fund and 25% to good causes. A new prize structure was introduced in November 2018, bumping the second prize up to £1 Million and limiting the number of jackpot rollovers to five consecutive draws.
All prizes are paid as a lump sum and are tax-free.

Many experienced lottery players are regular syndicate share buyers for the following reasons:
-
Increased Chances: Syndicates offer players the chance to play many more games than they would normally play. More games = More chances with
some of the larger syndicates playing anywhere from 2000 - 3000 games in a single draw.
-
Multiple Dividends: LottoHQ comprises some of its syndicates of System games. These games have a greater return value by paying out multiple
prizes per division. Some of the larger systems in the HighRoller syndicates have seen hundreds of division prizes won off the one syndicate entry.
Multiple players share the costs and the prizes making syndicates a fantastic, Low Cost way to Play Lotto.
