MANILA, Philippines – Is the PCSO lotto ticket available online? This might be the frequent question of bettors and enthusiasts nowadays as COVID-19 pandemic keeps us to stay at home and forcing some tasks to shift to the 'new normal'.
The answer is NO, but in the recent budget hearing in the House of Representatives, Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) Vice Chairperson and General Manager Royina Garma said they are currently reviewing plans for other betting systems that would address the COVID-19 situation.
“There is a possibility of using mobile apps and other systems of betting so that we will have other alternatives," Garma divulged.
How to buy lotto tickets?
PCSO lotto tickets are available via authorized lotto outlets nationwide. Buying of tickets is from 7:00 am until 8:00 pm only. Major draws daily is scheduled at 9:00 pm.
PCSO has rolled back price of major lotto tickets to PHP20 per combination (inclusive of 20% Documentary Stamp Tax or DST).
Reminder: You must be at least 18 years old to buy lotto ticket or claim your winnings. Players have the sole responsibility for checking the accuracy of the data printed on your ticket(s) including bet type, bet amount, the draw date you want to enter and the numbers you want to play.
Schedule of PCSO lotto draws
Operations of all jackpot bearing games and digit games 2D (EZ2) and 3D (Swertres) resumed in areas under general community quarantine (GCQ) and modified general community quarantine (MGCQ) according to the guidelines of the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID).
How to play PCSO lotto in current system
A. For the five major games – Ultra Lotto 6/58, Grand Lotto 6/55, Super Lotto 6/49, Mega Lotto 6/45, Lotto 6/42 – the following game rules apply:
1. Select your six (6) number-combination, from 1 to maximum number per lotto game (e.g. 58 for 6/58 and 55 for 6/55).
You may also choose your combination via Lucky Pick, in which computer will randomly generate your six numbers.
2. You can even play your selected numbers up to six consecutive draws in advance by marking the preferred number of draws in DRAW column on the playslip. If an error is made, mark the VOID box to indicate that the board is cancelled.
3. If you want to increase your chance of winning, you may go with the System Play or System bet.
In System 5-Roll, a bettor picks only five numbers and—for the sixth digit—pairs these off with each of the remaining numbers (e.g. 50 for 6/55 and 53 for 6/58).
On the other hand, a System 7 bet pertains to a selection of seven numbers where a total of 7 possible combinations could be drawn.
For example, if you chose 7 digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, the number of possible 6-digit combination is 7.

Lucky Pick is also available in the Rambolito System Play, but the option of repeating digits is not applicable.
