Lottery Singapore is the only legal lottery operator in Singapore. It was incorporated in 1968 to curb illegal gambling in the country. Today, it has a wide portfolio of games including 4-D, Toto, and Singapore Sweep.
4D lottery (four digits) is one of the most popular forms of lotteries in Singapore. It offers a more flexible bet structure that can impact the prizes.
In this lottery type, players select six numbers from 1 to 49. They must match at least three of them to win the prize. The price is $1, GST included.
Toto is also a form of lottery that players can purchase for a minimum price of $3. This lottery is similar to 4D, but it has more number selection options. It is available only at Singapore Pools outlets and national authorized retailers.
It is drawn on the first Wednesday of every month and has a jackpot prize of at least $2.3 million. Moreover, players can also win $6 for matching the final two digits of their ticket numbers.
The official website of Singapore Pools is updated regularly with results and you can set up email alerts to be notified after each draw. You can also watch live broadcasts of Singapore Pools draws at certain designated outlets.
According to the results of a study, a S$10,000 increase in unearned income via lottery wins improves the self-reported health status of household members in Singapore. However, the coefficient on lottery wins is small and statistically insignificantly different from zero, thereby providing evidence that lottery winnings are not necessary for improved well-being.
