Prizes
There are 12 sraitheanna duaise sa Phota Óir Euro agus is ionann iad do na tíortha rannpháirteacha go léir. Ní mór duit ar a laghad dhá phríomhuimhir agus uimhir Euro amháin nó príomhuimhir amháin agus dhá uimhir Euro a mheaitseáil chun duais a bhuachan. The jackpot is claimed by matching all seven numbers drawn.

The Booster Fund is used to ensure that the minimum jackpot amount of €10 million can always be paid out. If the Booster Fund exceeds €20 million, any extra money is added to the prize pool for the next draw.
The jackpot starts at €10 million and if it is not won it rolls over to the following draw. It will continue to do so until someone wins it or it reaches the jackpot cap of €90 million. If it is still not won after reaching this amount, any additional funds from ticket sales are added to the prize tier below, which is also capped at €90 million.
