This Monday (29), sales of the Lotofácil da Independência begin, which can pay up to R$200 million, the biggest prize ever offered in the history of this lottery. The special contest 3,190 will draw prizes on September 9th.
How to bet on Lotofácil da Independência
Players can place their bets at lotteries across the country, using specific Lotofácil da Independência tickets. In addition, it is possible to bet through the portal or through the Loterias CAIXA app, available free of charge for iOS and Android devices.
To bet, you need to mark between 15 and 20 numbers out of the 25 available. Those who match 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15 numbers win prizes. Those who prefer can let the system choose the numbers through Surpresinha.
Prizes and rules
As with other CAIXA special competitions, the Lotofácil da Independência main prize does not accumulate. If no bet matches all 15 numbers, those who match 14 numbers will share the prize, according to the rules of the sport.
A single Lotofácil bet costs R$3.
If just one winner receives the R$200 million prize and decides to invest the entire amount in CAIXA Savings, he or she will receive around R$1.17 million in income in the first month. Another option for the winner would be to invest R$5 million in 40 different startups of their choice.
CAIXA pool
At Lotofácil, the prizes have a minimum price of R$12, and each share cannot be less than R$4. In addition, the player can also purchase shares of prizes organized by the lotteries.
Just ask the attendant for the number of odds you want and keep the receipt to check the bet on the day of the draw. In this case, an additional service fee of up to 35% of the quota value may be charged, at the lottery’s discretion.
Finally, a new feature this year is that lottery shares organized by lotteries can also be purchased on the Loterias CAIXA portal, with the same fee of 35% of the share value.
