Overview

  • The processing fee rose by €0.20 per slip at retail counters and by €0.10 online, with the change in force since early August.
  • A single Lotto 6aus49 tip now costs €2.00 in shops and €1.80 online in Saxony, while Eurojackpot is €2.80 in shops and €2.60 online.
  • The statutory stake per tip remains unchanged, as only the per-slip processing charge was adjusted.
  • Because the fee is levied once per ticket regardless of the number of tips, single-tip slips face the largest proportional increase.
  • Sachsenlotto says the adjustment is necessary to cover higher costs for technical operations, security, digitalization and service for its network.
