Signing Up

The more tickets you play with, the more you win. If your postcode gets lucky, and you play with two tickets, you'll double your prize money. If you play with three tickets, you'll triple your winnings.

For example, in our £250,000** prize every ticket in 1 lucky postcode wins £250,000. That means if you play with one ticket, and your postcode gets drawn, you'll win £250,000. But if you play with two tickets then you'd win £500,000, and if you play with three tickets then you'd pick up £750,000.

The same applies with our £1,000 prizes, which run every day. These fixed amount prizes are awarded per ticket. The more tickets you play with, the more you win. Prize funds in the £1 Million draw and Postcode Millions draw are shared on a per-ticket basis. The more tickets you play with, the greater your share of the total prize fund. See the How are winners selected? section on our How It Works page for more information.

Each ticket costs £12.25 per month to play. For two tickets, your subscription would be £24.50 per month, and for three tickets, it would cost £36.75 per month.

Play with People's Postcode Lottery

The simplest way to buy People's Postcode Lottery tickets is to sign up to play. You can also buy tickets by telephoning us on our freephone telephone number 0808 109 8765.

Each month, there are a set of draws. You cannot buy tickets for one individual draw - the minimum subscription is for one month and costs £12.25. Each payment enters your ticket into all the draws for a month in advance. That means your ticket plays for all the prizes in that month of play.
