Where to Find Your Millionaire Maker Code
Your Millionaire Maker code is printed on your EuroMillions ticket directly beneath your chosen numbers if you bought it in a shop — and shown in your National Lottery account (and confirmation email) if you played online. It’s four letters followed by five numbers, something like HJWR12345, and it’s your automatic entry to the £1 million raffle.
On a paper ticket
Look below the rows of numbers you picked: each line of EuroMillions numbers has its own separate code printed beside or beneath it. If you bought three lines, you hold three codes — three raffle entries for the same draw. The code begins with one of a set letters such as H, J, M, T, V, X or Z, and no two tickets anywhere in the country share the same one.
Playing online or in the app
Sign in and open your ticket under your games or transaction history — the code sits alongside your numbers, and it also appears in your purchase confirmation email. Online players have the easiest ride of all: if your code wins, the National Lottery notifies you through your account, so a winning code can’t quietly slip past.
What you can’t do with it
You can’t choose or change the code — it’s generated randomly at purchase, and the sequence itself carries no meaning. A code full of “lucky” letters has exactly the same chance as any other, because the draw simply picks one sold code at random. Buy draws in advance and your codes stay in play for each draw you’ve purchased.
Why it’s worth finding
One UK code is guaranteed to win £1 million every Tuesday and Friday — and winners regularly emerge weeks later, having checked their numbers but never their code. The two-second glance below your numbers is the most valuable habit in EuroMillions.
