Italy Lotto (Lottomatica) is the country's oldest and most traditional lottery, dating back centuries. Unlike standard number-draw lotteries, it uses a unique system of 10 regional 'wheels' (ruote) — Bari, Cagliari, Firenze, Genova, Milano, Napoli, Palermo, Roma, Torino, and Venezia — plus a national wheel. Five numbers are drawn from each wheel, and players bet on specific number combinations appearing on one or more wheels. Bet types range from estratto (single number) to cinquina (all five numbers). Draws happen three times per week. International players outside the US can purchase tickets through theLotter. US residents cannot purchase international lottery tickets online due to federal regulations.
How to Play Italy Lotto (Lottomatica)
Choose 1 to 5 numbers from 1 to 90 and select which wheel(s) to bet on (or 'Tutte' for all wheels). Bet types include: estratto (1 number), ambo (2 numbers), terno (3 numbers), quaterna (4 numbers), and cinquina (5 numbers). Higher combinations pay more but are harder to hit. Five numbers are drawn from each of the 10 regional wheels plus the national wheel.
