At all times, Lotto NZ encourages their customers to play a little, dream a lot.

"We know high jackpots can be exciting but remember – it only takes one ticket to win," says a Lotto NZ spokesperson.

"With 100 per cent of Lotto NZ's profits supporting thousands of great causes each year, every time you play one of Lotto NZ's games, you're a Kiwi helping other Kiwis."
