How the Postcode Lottery operates
The People’s Postcode Lottery is a subscription lottery that channels funds to charities. Players subscribe to take part in regular postcode draws.
The scheme awards daily prizes to postcodes across the UK. Each day, 20 different postcodes win £1,000.
Weekend jackpots and charitable giving
On weekends, every winning ticket in a postcode can claim a £30,000 jackpot. A minimum of 33 percent from each ticket goes to charity.
Since 2005, players have raised over £950 million. Those funds have supported more than 9,000 charities and good causes.
