How to Play Set for Life
Set for Life is the UK's only annuity lottery — instead of a lump sum, the top prize pays a monthly income. Here's how to play.
Choosing your numbers
Pick five main numbers from 1 to 47 and one Life Ball from 1 to 10. Each line costs £1.50, and a Lucky Dip is available for random numbers.
Draw days
Draws are held every Monday and Thursday at around 8pm, with a 7:30pm cut-off. The top prize is £10,000 a month for 30 years.
How the prizes work
The two highest tiers pay monthly instalments rather than a lump sum. For every tier and the odds, see Set for Life odds, and for the full schedule, the full lottery draw schedule.
