Lottoland Syndicates Review

If you are a fan of playing the lottery online, then you have most likely stumbled upon a generous number of websites that offer lottery syndicates. However, with the number of websites providing syndicates today, it may be hard to determine which site best fits what you are looking for.

In this Lottoland.com syndicate review, we will look at the syndicates offered and see if they are worth investing your money into.

WHAT ARE Lottoland.com LOTTERY SYNDICATES?

While there is an argument for the fact that all lottery syndicates are created equal, there is only some truth to this.

Lottoland’s lottery syndicates indeed function in the same way as any others in that they allow you to place your money into a central fund with a set amount of other lottery players from around the world.

This money is then pooled together and played on a particular lottery. If there are any winnings, they are all shared out amongst everyone who contributed to the syndicate.

There are, however, two main ways in which the syndicates available on Lottoland.com differ. The first thing is that Lottoland allows different sizes for some of their syndicates.

Yes, you read that correctly: in an innovative twist—that we personally think is fantastic—Lottoland has decided to allow players to choose if they would like a small, medium, or large syndicate.

While this option is only available for two of their syndicates (and is limited to the syndicates it offers to the Australian market), it is still a great way to allow people to choose exactly what it is that they would like.

Where the site does not allow different sizing, it does offer a generous amount of options regarding how many lines of play you would like to select.

Secondly, Lottoland.com offers syndicate plays for some of its own in-house lotteries. The site runs almost every aspect of these lottery games, which generally offer lower odds than most other international lotteries.

The only thing that Lottoland does not control is the numbers that decide the winners of the draw. Lottoland usually uses the same results of an external lottery to decide on winners.

It appears that all of the syndicate options use the Random Selection method to choose which numbers will be used to play in the lotteries.

This method means that each number chosen is done so entirely at random and that no algorithms or calculations are used to determine the numbers.

SYNDICATE OPTIONS AVAILABLE

Depending on where in the world you are visiting the site from, the syndicate options available to you may differ.

However, we have covered all the syndicates that should generally be available universally, in the UK, and the ones that are available exclusively to Australia (due to their strict lottery rules).

INTERNATIONAL SYNDICATE OPTIONS

There are a decent number of syndicate options that appear to be available universally regardless of where you are accessing the site from. The exception to this is Australia, which is a special case because the lottery laws there work a bit differently.

The universal syndicates include the following:

US Powerball Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 292,201,338 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.586 billion

After giving away $1.586 billion in 2016, US Powerball is arguably the world’s largest lottery. However, the odds of winning such a spectacular jackpot are 1 in 292,201,338, which are very tough. This syndicate does the unthinkable by offering syndicate plays of up to 1008 lines of play.

These syndicate options work to improve these odds by staggering amounts (with the 1008-line syndicate changing the odds to just 1 in 579,765). Holding a single share in the 504-line option will still pay you $12.02 million if the syndicate wins the jackpot. Holding four shares in the same instance could win you a potential $48.06 million.

Mega Millions Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 302,575,350 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.537 billion

If you would like to improve your odds of winning the next Mega Millions jackpot, then you will need to take a look at these syndicate options.

With odds changed from 1 in 302,575,350 to only 1 in 600,348 (by using the 1008-line syndicate option), your dream of winning a potential jackpot of $1.537 billion may be closer than you think.

Winning this jackpot while owning just one share could leave you with spare cash of up to $9.73 million, and holding five shares could gain you $48.64 million.

EuroMillions Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 139,838,160 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: €190 million

With jackpots reaching €190 million, EuroMillions is a lottery that is undoubtedly worth playing in. If you would like to change your odds of winning the massive prizes offered, the 1008-line syndicate provided by Lottoland can improve your odds from 1 in 139,838,160 to only 1 in 277,457.

As a bonus, because of the low number of shares, holding a single share (even in the 336-line syndicate option) could still entitle you to €1.9 million.

Having five shares in this same syndicate would result in you winning €9.5 million.

Irish Lotto Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 10,737,573 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: €18.9 million

Hearing that you could win a share of €18.9 million by tilting normally OK odds of 1 in 10,737,573 to an unbelievable 1 in 34,088 is something you may not believe.

However, this Irish Lotto syndicate offers just that with its 630-line syndicate option. In addition, two other options are available that may better suit your budget.

Holding a single share in any of these syndicate options could increase your savings by €189,000, while holding six shares would make you €1.13 million richer.

UK SYNDICATE OPTIONS

These syndicates are exclusive to players residing in the UK. They offer a mix of great bundles and access to an exclusive Lottoland lottery game titled Millionaire. The UK syndicate options include:

American Dream Syndicate (US Powerball & Mega Millions)

US Powerball: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 292,201,338 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.586 billion

Mega Millions: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 302,575,350 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.537 billion

This spectacular syndicate offers entries into two of the largest international lotteries available today—US Powerball and Mega Millions.

By offering 252 lines of play for each lottery per week (or 126 lines of play per draw), this syndicate improves your odds of winning from 1 in 292,201,338 to 1 in 2,319,058 for US Powerball and from 1 in 302,575,350 to 1 in 2,401,392 for Mega Millions.

This means that if you hold a single share in this syndicate and it wins a Mega Millions jackpot of $1.537 billion (like what occurred in October 2018), you could win $12.7 million.

Holding three shares could entitle you to $38.11 million.

Weekend Wonder Syndicate
(Powerball, Mega Millions, Millionaire, and Irish Lotto)

US Powerball: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 292,201,338 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.586 billion

Mega Millions: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 302,575,350 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.537 billion

Millionaire: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 139,838,160 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: £169 million

Irish Lotto: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 10,737,573 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: €18.9 million

Offering entry into four different lotteries every week, this syndicate works to reduce the odds of winning potential jackpots ranging from €18.9 million to $1.586 billion.

Using multiple lines of play to enter US Powerball, Mega Millions, Irish Lotto, and Millionaire (a lottery game exclusively run by Lottoland), this syndicate makes the odds of winning a jackpot as good as 1 in 255,657 (for Irish Lotto).

Holding a single share and winning the famous Mega Millions jackpot could leave you with $8.59 million in your wallet.

If you hold four shares and the syndicate wins the Millionaire jackpot, you could claim up to £944,134.

Beginner’s Luck Syndicate
(US Powerball, Mega Millions, and Millionaire)

US Powerball: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 292,201,338 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.586 billion

Mega Millions: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 302,575,350 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: $1.537 billion

Millionaire: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 139,838,160 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: £169 million

This small syndicate is perfect for you if you are looking into playing in a syndicate for the first time. For only €2.26, this syndicate gives you multiple lines of play in US Powerball, Mega Millions, and Lottoland’s own Millionaire.

These numerous lines help to improve the odds of all three lotteries by vast amounts (e.g. US Powerball odds change from 1 in 292,201,338 to 1 in 27,828,699).

And considering a single share could be worth a staggering $16.01 million (if the syndicate wins the highest Mega Millions jackpot available), this syndicate is worth investing into.

Holding six shares in the same scenario could be worth an astounding $96.06 million.

Fantastic Friday
(Millionaire, Eurojackpot, and Polish Mini Lotto)

Millionaire: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 139,838,160 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: £169 million

Eurojackpot: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 95,344,200 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: €90 million

Polish Mini Lotto: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 850,668 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: €80,000

This great syndicate offers multiple lines of play in Lottoland’s Millionaire, the famous Eurojackpot, and Poland’s Mini Lotto.

With odds improved from 1 in 95,344,200 to just 1 in 2,648,450 (for EuroJackpot), this syndicate’s relatively low price is certainly worth it.

As a bonus, owning one share could be worth a tremendous €2.09 million if the syndicate wins the Eurojackpot top prize.

If you hold six shares and the syndicate wins the Polish Mini Lotto jackpot, you could be entitled to claim up to €11,163.

Millionaire Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 139,838,160 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: £169 million

This syndicate allows you a wide range of options to play in Lottoland’s Millionaire lottery.

Playing with the 1008-line syndicate, you can improve your odds of winning potential jackpots worth £169 million from 1 in 139,838,160 to just 1 in 277,457—a massive improvement by any measure.

And, due to the low number of shares available for each option, holding only one share in the 330-line syndicate could still lead you to claim a possible £1.69 million.

Having four shares in this same syndicate could be worth £6.76 million.

Lotto Plus Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 45,057,474 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A (£1 million minimum for the second tier)

Lotto Plus is yet another Lottoland exclusive lottery game that is based on the results of Swiss Lotto Express.

This great syndicate offers you multiple chances to drastically improve your odds.

The 630-line syndicate can help by changing your odds from 1 in 45,057,474 to a fantastic 1 in 143,040.

If you choose to purchase just one share of this syndicate, even if it only wins the second-tier prize of £1 million, you will still be able to claim up to £12,346.

If you purchase four shares, you would be able to claim a potential £49,383.

Eurojackpot Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 95,344,200 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: €90 million

If you would like to improve your odds of winning a possible €90 million Eurojackpot prize from 1 in 95,344,200 to only 1 in 908,040, then look no further than this syndicate.

Holding a single share could potentially fill your pocket with €857,143. And if you are feeling adventurous and decide to purchase three shares, you could be claiming up to €2.57 million.

AUSTRALIAN SYNDICATE OPTIONS

There is a total of six different syndicate options available to the Australian sector. Two of these options include multiple sizes.

Due to restrictions passed by the Australian government that limits players’ ability to play in international lotteries, all these syndicate options allow playing in lotteries held by Lottoland.com that are loosely based on Australian lotteries.

However, due to further restrictions, the bets that people place nowadays are actually against the outcomes of financial markets rather than the lottery games themselves.

The available syndicate options include:

US Power Syndicate (L, M, & S)

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 292,201,338 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A ($200 million minimum)

US Power is one of the two premier lotteries run by Lottoland, and it is loosely modelled after one of the most popular lotteries in the world, US Powerball.

The lottery has a minimum jackpot of a staggering $200 million. However, with odds of 1 in 292,201,338, the chances of winning it may seem just as mind-blowing—though for a different reason.

Luckily, the large US Power syndicate offers odds of only 1 in 1,159,529.

And, considering that with only one share, you could become $15.38 million richer, it is fairly easy to justify the $100 price of these syndicate shares.

US Millions Syndicate (L, M, & S)

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 302,575,350 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A ($184 million minimum)

With a minimum jackpot of $184 million, there is no doubt that US Millions (the second premier lottery held by Lottoland, and one loosely modelled after Mega Millions) is something everybody wants to win.

However, with the odds of winning that jackpot standing at 1 in 302,575,350, the only realistic way to significantly improve your odds is through a syndicate.

Playing in the large US Millions option above could enhance your odds of winning to 1 in 1,200,696.

And, even though you may only purchase a single share, you could still win $14.15 million.

American Dreaming Syndicate (US Power and US Millions)

US Powerball: 1 in 292,201,338 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A ($200 million minimum)

Mega Millions: Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 302,575,350 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A ($184 million minimum)

As seen above, the two main lottery draws offered by Lottoland.com both offer amazing jackpots.

Playing in this great syndicate entitles you to 28 lines of play for each draw held by these two mega lotteries in one week. This reduces your odds of winning from 1 in 297,388,344 ^[a] to 1 in 10,621,012 ^[a].

This means that if the syndicate wins just the US Millions minimum jackpot, your one share would be worth $5.58 million.

Owning four of these shares would entitle you to $22.3 million.

^[a] These figures were calculated by using the average from across the data available for both lotteries.

TUE Jackpot Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 45,379,620 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A ($8 million minimum)

Tue Jackpot is a unique lottery run by Lottoland each Tuesday that seems to be loosely based on the popular game from Down Under, Oz Lotto. This lottery has a minimum jackpot of $8 million but also has tough odds of 45,379,620.

For just $15, this syndicate drastically reduces these odds to 1 in 252,109 by giving you 180 lines of play for only $15.

Winning the minimum jackpot with only one share could increase your wealth by $533,333. Having six shares could leave you smiling with $3.2 million.

THU Jackpot Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 134,490,400 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A ($55 million minimum)

With a minimum jackpot of $55 million, THU Jackpot is another lottery unique to Lottoland—though it is loosely based on the Australian Powerball.

While the game has tough jackpot odds of 1 in 134,490,400, playing in this syndicate will reduce them to a much more acceptable 1 in 1,120,753.

Having a single share when winning the minimum jackpot will still pay out a generous $2.2 million, while three shares would be worth $6.6 million.

MON & WED Jackpot Syndicate

Regular Jackpot Odds: 1 in 8,145,060 / Biggest Jackpot Ever: N/A ($2.5 million minimum)

This syndicate for the Lottoland MON & WED Jackpot lottery, which seems to be loosely based on the Australian Saturday Lotto and Monday Lotto games, offers players a shot at a jackpot of a minimum of $2.5 million.

To win this kind of prize, players will need to beat the odds of 1 in 8,145,060.

Thankfully, this syndicate gives you 28 lines of play for each weekly draw and helps reduce the odds of winning to 1 in 290,895.

Having one share in this syndicate could earn you $208,333, and having five shares could earn you $1,041,665.

*All costs and prizes mentioned in the Australian syndicate options above are listed in Australian dollars.

Lottoland.com SYNDICATES CONCLUSION

With such a wide assortment of syndicates available, it is hard to come to a definitive conclusion of Lottoland’s syndicate options. Of course, they are all fantastic. Each syndicate manages to succeed in a careful balancing act between price, available shares, and improvement of odds.

However, it is slightly disappointing that so many of the syndicates listed above are restricted to some regions of the world. We are sure that some international players would love access to the Weekend Wonder Syndicate. Yet, to access that on Lottoland.com, you need to be a resident of the UK.

Regardless, we still think that the company has done an excellent job of building syndicates that people will want to play and tailoring them to the preferences of players in specific regions.

To sum things up, when comparing the various online lottery syndicates that are available on a wide array of other lotto sites, Lottoland’s syndicates are definitely some of the ones we enjoy playing regularly.

As a result, we recommend that you put them at or near the top of the list of ones to try in the near future.
