The next Lotofácil contest is scheduled for Friday, May 9, 2025, with an estimated prize of R$ 1.8 million. This prize reflects the continued popularity of the lottery, which has been a staple of Brazilian gaming since its inception in 2003.
Players can choose between several betting methods, including the traditional selection of numbers or the "Surpresinha" option, where the system randomly selects numbers for them. Another popular choice is the "Teimosinha," which allows players to use the same set of numbers for multiple consecutive draws.
The minimum bet for Lotofácil is R$ 3, which covers a single selection of 15 numbers. The odds of winning the top prize with this minimal bet stand at approximately 1 in 3,268,760.
