The EuroMillions jackpot for the Friday, July 24 draw has reached 70 million euros, according to the Française des Jeux (FDJ). Players have until 8:15 p.m. CET to purchase tickets for the drawing, which is available via physical FDJ retail points, the official fdj.fr website, and the FDJ mobile application for iOS and Android devices.
EuroMillions Ticket Costs and Participation
A standard EuroMillions game grid costs 2.50 euros, according to FDJ. The lottery is a European-wide game, meaning the jackpot is shared across participating nations, though the Française des Jeux manages the entries and payouts for players within France.
My Million: Additional Odds for French Players
Participants in France have access to “My Million,” a supplementary game managed by FDJ. While EuroMillions is a multi-national draw, My Million is specific to the French market. According to FDJ, every EuroMillions grid generates a unique code that enters the player into a separate draw where one winner is selected to receive 1 million euros.
This system provides a secondary chance to win even if the player’s primary EuroMillions number combination does not match the winning draw. FDJ conducts these My Million draws twice per week.
How to Verify Winnings
The Française des Jeux publishes the results of each draw on the official FDJ website. To determine the exact payout for a winning ticket, FDJ directs players to the “tableau des gains théoriques” (theoretical winnings table), which provides estimated prize amounts based on the player’s rank and the total number of winners in each tier.
