Single ticket: This is exactly how the name suggests. This ticket is valid for a single draw only. If the numbers match, you win. If they don’t, you will have to buy another ticket to play again.
Multi-draw: This type of ticket allows you to play one ticket for multiple draws. The number of draws is usually between 4-12. The prices vary according to the draws you choose. A multi-draw ticket allows you to increase your chances of winning at a lower price.
Subscription: A subscription is similar to the multi-draw with a variation. It does not have an end date. You can keep placing the same ticket for draws until you cancel your subscription.
