About Thunderball

Thunderball is a UK National Lottery game run by Allwyn, drawn four times a week on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings. It has a fixed top prize of £500,000 rather than a rolling jackpot.

How to play Thunderball

A line costs £1. Pick five main numbers from 1 to 39 and one Thunderball from 1 to 14. Match all five plus the Thunderball to win £500,000. Every prize is fixed, from £3 for matching the Thunderball alone up to £5,000 for five main numbers.

Thunderball odds

The chance of the £500,000 top prize is 1 in 8,060,598. Because the Thunderball alone wins a prize, the odds of winning something on a line are about 1 in 12.
