How to Play Arkansas Lotto

It's really easy to play Arkansas Lotto. You can go to your nearest lottery retailer, or even order tickets online. If you play online, it is not only convenient but it is also secure, as your numbers are safely held in a digital account and you don't have to keep hold of a paper ticket that could get mislaid or damaged.

Select six numbers from 1 to 40, or get a Quick Pick if you are happy for the computer to generate a random set for you. There are five panels on a playslip, so you can enter multiple sets of numbers at once. If you make a mistake when choosing your numbers, you can mark the 'Void' box.

In the Multi Draw section of your playslip, decide how many consecutive drawings to enter, up to a maximum of 20. It costs $2 per play.

Arkansas Lotto Draws

Lotto draws in Arkansas take place at 9:00pm CT on Wednesday and Saturday nights. The cut-off time for tickets at retailers is 8:59pm CT.

Six main numbers are drawn, followed by a Bonus Ball from the 34 numbers that are left. You have to match all six main numbers to win the jackpot, but there are also seven other prize levels.

Prizes start from matching two main numbers plus the Bonus Ball. The overall odds of winning are 1 in 18.3. See the Prizes page for more details.
