How to play

  • You may play online, using the mobile app or at a Loto-Québec retailer where you can pick your own numbers or opt for one or more selections randomly generated by Loto-Québec's computer.
  • One play includes 3 selections of 7 numbers from 1 to 50.
  • For the main draw, prizes can be won in 9 categories, i.e. 7/7, 6/7+Bonus, 6/7, 5/7+Bonus, 5/7, 4/7+Bonus, 4/7, 3/7+Bonus and 3/7.
