Will the EuroMillions winnings record soon be broken? While the jackpot of 240 million euros, which constitutes a record in the history of the European lottery, has just been beaten on Friday December 8, it is not impossible that it will be exceeded in the months to come.
If the jackpot of 240 million euros put into play on Friday by EuroMillions was nevertheless capped by the most famous European lotteries, its regulations offer the possibility to all players to win even more money.
From now on, the megajackpot will be able to reach 250 million euros thanks to the lucky winner of 240 million euros. Indeed, in February 2020, the EuroMillions regulations were modified to increase the “1st tier cap”, increasing it from 190 to 250 million euros. This charter provides for an increase of 10 million euros each time a new level is reached.
“This is the sixth and final level”
“The amount of the jackpot can rise up to the maximum ceiling of 250 million euros, this is the sixth and final level. Since March 2020, five ceilings of 200, 210, 220, 230 then a final one of 240 million euros have been reached,” specifies the specialist site Tirage Gagnant.
For example, in July 2022, a Briton won the jackpot of 230 million euros, which was then the maximum ceiling, and therefore made it possible to unlock this limit to bring it to 240 million euros. Now unlocked, the new level now amounts to 250 million euros and will not be able to go beyond, unless EuroMillions modifies its regulations again.
After this Friday’s record win, the European lottery jackpot will fall to 17 million euros on Tuesday, December 12, but it risks reaching the sum of 250 million euros in a few weeks if no lucky person wins. jackpot put into play every Tuesday and every Friday in the meantime.
