How the Federal Lottery Works
The Federal Lottery is one of the oldest lottery systems operated in Brazil. Instead of selecting numbers, players purchase pre-printed tickets with unique numbers. During the draw, a set of winning numbers is announced.
Prizes are awarded based on:
- Exact ticket matches for the main prizes
- Partial matches based on the last digits of the ticket number
- Additional prize categories such as approximations and series prizes
Because the system uses physical ticket numbers rather than player-selected numbers, it is considered simple, transparent, and easy to verify.
