Understanding Lottery Games

Please Note: FernHarbour Charity Lotto is an independent fundraising initiative. The games listed below (Lotto, Keno, Bullseye) are examples of popular national games operated by the NZ Lotteries Commission. We are not the operator of these games. We provide this information for educational purposes to explain different draw formats.

Lotto Style

In standard Lotto games, players select 6 numbers from a pool (e.g., 1-40). Prizes are awarded based on how many numbers match the official draw.

Keno Style

Keno is a rapid-draw game where players pick a set of numbers (usually 1-10) from a larger pool (e.g., 80). The payout depends on how many you pick and match.

Bullseye Style

A game where you select a 6-digit number. The closer your number is to the winning number drawn, the bigger the prize you win.
