How does the People’s Postcode Lottery work?

The People’s Postcode Lottery website explains how the competition works.

It says: “Every month, players in a postcode sector share £3.2 million or more.

“In this example, £1.6 million of this will be shared equally by tickets playing with the winning postcode, with the other £1.6 million being shared equally by tickets playing with the winning postcode sector.

“On the rare occasion where there are not enough winning tickets in the postcode sector, the area may be expanded to the postcode district.”

A minimum of 33% of each ticket goes to charity, and players have raised more than £1.3 billion for over 9,000 charities and good causes since 2005.
