Lotto results Ireland: Kildare online player wins whopping €238,000

An online player in Kildare became the largest winner in Ireland on Tuesday night after matching five numbers and one lucky star in the midweek EuroMillions draw.

The Tuesday night winner won €238,541 after purchasing their ticket online at www.lottery.ie.

The National Lottery has confirmed that a notification to the user’s online account and a separate email has now been sent to the lucky Kildare ticket holder.

The winning numbers for Tuesday’s EuroMillions draw were: 08, 20, 26, 47, 48 and lucky stars 03, 08.

The online winner should make contact with the prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize.

A National Lottery spokesperson said: “In the space of two days, we have seen two online players win large prizes across two different games. On Tuesday night, a EuroMillions player in Kildare matched five numbers and one lucky star to win an incredible €238,541.

"The night before, it was a player in Dublin celebrating after winning the top prize of €500,000 in Monday’s 9pm Daily Million Plus draw.”

As there was no winner of the incredible €174,025,283 jackpot on offer in last night’s draw, Friday’s EuroMillions jackpot is now set to roll towards an estimated €195 million.

Nearly 30 cent in every €1 spent on all National Lottery games goes back to Good Causes in the areas of sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage, and the Irish Language.

In total more than €6 Billion has been raised for Good Causes since the National Lottery was established 34 years ago.

In 2021 alone, €289 million was raised for local Good Causes in communities across Ireland.
