What is The People’s Postcode Lottery?

The People’s Postcode Lottery is a subscription-based lottery that players all across Britain love to play. Instead of selecting numbers, tickets are based on your postcode. When a winning postcode is selected, all players with that postcode win!

Players pay £10 a month to be entered into the lottery, and have the chance to win prizes every single day.

The Postcode Lottery has three prize tiers:

  • £1,000 Daily Prize, which is awarded daily from Monday to Sunday

The Postcode Millions Prize is shared among all winning players.

How does The Postcode Lottery work?
