Buy El Gordo Lottery Tickets

One look at the Spanish El Gordo de La Primitiva lottery and it's easy to see why it's a firm favourite with world lottery players.

We see huge jackpots throughout the year, and the other Reintegro number adds excitement for winners of secondary prize divisions. When it is matched, it allows for a refund of the ticket price.

Enter El Gordo Lottery

Organised by the official Spanish lottery organisation, the El Gordo lottery has been giving 45% of profits to good causes since the game was released to the public in 1993.

Never far from lottery headlines, this great lottery promises a starting jackpot of €5 million.

Players enjoy frequent rollovers that build up to some of its biggest prizes such as the lottery’s record 2011 jackpot of  €33,024,545.

To play, select five numbers from a guess range of 1-54 and an additional Reintegro number from a guess range of 0-9.

To win the jackpot all five main numbers and the Reintegro number must match all the numbers drawn. 

As well as the jackpot level, the Reintegro number which is drawn from a different drum comes into play for four secondary prizes at levels three, five, seven and nine.

Just like the Spanish lottery BonoLoto and the La Primitiva lotto, matching the Reintegro in the draw results in a refund of the ticket cost. If you are playing from outside Spain at theLotter, the return is less their service fee.

Boasting nine prize divisions, the El Gordo lottery is well worth a go; the draw takes place on Sunday's at 12:00 GMT, 13:00 local time in Spain.

Remember, if you are playing from outside Spain that ticket sales at theLotter close a few hours before the draw. Don't forget to factor in the time difference from the country you are playing online.
