Crazy Lottos is a website that lets players all over the planet bet on the world's biggest lotteries. The site is operated by Timeless Tech N.V. of Nicosia Cyprus and is registered in E-Commerce Park, Vredenberg, Curacao.

The betting site is powered by one or more Spinola Gaming software solutions and operates on the bookmaker model of betting on lottery numbers... more on that distinction below.

Look at the bottom of the lottery pages for a live link to any Gaming Curacao sub-licenses held, or you should find any license number on the Rules and Terms page.

The site offers players the convenience of betting on lottery outcomes without the need to purchase physical tickets. Winners collect their money from placing bets on the results of US Powerball, Euro Millions, Super Lotto, and many more of the world's biggest lottery draws right on the website.

Who can play Crazy Lottos?

Players in Europe can bet on American Powerball games when the jackpots grow sky high, and players in Asia or Latin America can bet on the world's biggest jackpots - all in one place from the comfort of their homes, or on a mobile phone where ever they are.

One of our reviewers was able to go through the registration process from a location in the USA, but unfortunately, they didn't get an email or SMS message to complete the process.

We found that service is not available in Israel, Turkey, Spain, France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Netherlands, Hungary, Portugal, Denmark, or "in respect of interstate activity" in the United States of America.

That makes sense as sports betting is allowed by individual states in the US, but not state to state. Since this is based on the bookmaker model rather than being a lottery messenger service or an insurance pool it might not be legal for US players to participate.

If you are in the USA or one of the other countries mentioned above check out our lottery pages for tips and tricks on how and where you can play the numbers for the world's biggest lotteries!

What Crazy Lottos is and what it is not

It's not a lottery messenger service...

Some online lottery purveyors will simply mark up the price of a ticket and go buy one for you. They might scan the ticket, send you the numbers, and if it's a winner they'll collect your money and send it to you. If it's a jackpot winner, they send you the ticket and it might be up to you to go to the country it was purchased in and collect the money yourself. Each messenger service handles the process differently. Some go all the way for you, others just buy your tickets for you.

Sound too good to be true?

It's true.

We reported back in 2015 about a man in Iraq who had a lottery agent purchase a ticket for him in the United States. He won and collected over $6,400,000!

It's not a lottery insurance pool...

Well, we can't say that for certain, since jackpot prizes are most likely insured. We wouldn't really expect an online bookmaker to have €100 million at their disposal to cover your winning Mega Millions ticket, the big prizes are probably insured.

Spinola Gaming does offer a €250 million Jackpot Insurance product announced in early 2020, but we don't know for a fact that it is related.

In general, Crazy Lotto is definitely not an insurance pool or hedge fund betting against you hitting a lucky set of numbers.

Crazy Lotto is a Virtual Ticket Provider...

15.8 The Company is not a lottery operator and does not hold or provide lottery draws

On the front end, where players buy their tickets, it looks just like an official lottery ticket reseller.

Behind the scenes, it is something else altogether - more like a virtual lottery mirror.

You can buy a ticket with the winning numbers and another person half a world away, can choose the same numbers and your bet does not affect theirs at all.

You might be asking yourself...

Why is that?

Because you don't actually buy a lottery ticket. You buy a 'virtual ticket' and are betting on the results of the numbers that will be drawn - but - you are betting against the bookmaker odds, not against a state or national lottery.

When you predict the winning numbers you will be paid out just as if you were holding a winning ticket in your hand.

The company reserves the right to payout large jackpots in a lump sum or as an annuity.

an·nu·i·ty
/əˈn(y)o͞oədē/
noun
a fixed sum of money paid to someone each year

Can I increase my odds by buying more tickets?

Well, no, not really. The odds are written in mathematical stone. If you take advantage of free tickets or bonus batches, you will get more tickets for your money and that would increase your chances of winning overall.

You can increase the chances of winning a jackpot by buying more tickets whenever a discount is offered. Look for bundles and special offers.

Another way to increase the chance that you will win at least part of a jackpot is to join a syndicate. This is a lot like a family or office pool where more than one person participates in purchasing tickets.

• Syndicate Pro - The more tickets in your name, the more chances of winning
• Syndicate Con - You have to share the jackpot with other players

Here's an example...

A syndicate buys 100 tickets for US Powerball. Your share is 20 tickets. One ticket wins and all others lose (for easy math). The winning ticket is worth 100 million EUR. You would receive 20 shares of the winnings or 20,000,000.00

Basically, it boils down to sharing the cost of getting more chances to win and sharing the winnings equally with your group of players based on each player's contribution to the pool. Chances are multiplied and prizes are divided - but you have a better chance to take part in a jackpot prize!

Of course, you can simply buy your own tickets and keep your winnings.

Okay, how can I play?

You'll need to buy some virtual tickets!

Create an account
Visit the site and register an account. You'll create a unique user name and password, enter your SMS number and email address, and then provide more detailed identity information such as name, address, etc. This is required for all international money transfers under KYC (know your customer) and AML (anti-money laundering) regulations.

Make a deposit
Log into your account and visit the cashier. Depending on your location you may be able to use Visa, MasterCard, Skrill, Neteller, Yandex.Money, Qiwi, Bank transfer, etc., to add money to your account.

Once your account is funded, you can buy your virtual betting tickets.

Choose a lottery to bet on, choose your numbers, decide how many draws you want to enter, and purchase your ticket(s).

How do I know if I win?

You can go to the "Results" page to check the latest draw results. Look in your account for additional funds from your winning tickets.

How do I withdraw?

Go to the cashier section and click on "Withdrawal Request". All funds are issued in EUR, so standard third-party currency exchange rates may apply. Otherwise, there are no fees charged by Crazy Lottos for deposits or withdrawals.

The currently approved payout method is by bank wire. You should expect to see the funds in your bank account within 5-7 business days. Some banks are faster, but that's a good time frame to manage expectations.

A quick recap and more points

Crazy Lottos lets players bet on the outcomes of some of the world's biggest lottery jackpots. A bet doesn't buy a lottery ticket, it buys a virtual bet on the outcome of a lottery draw.

The prizes are the same as the prizes offered by the public lottery provider.

You can join a syndicate to participate in more chances to win part of a big jackpot.

Lottery Bundles can offer great discounts and an easy way to play different games.

Crazy Lottos doesn't charge a commission or take part in your winnings, they simply handle your betting transaction with a bookmaker.

Most deposits are instant but the lottery draw has to occur before you can win. Payouts should appear in your account momentarily after a draw and appear in your bank account about a week after your cash out is processed.

The Final Word

Crazy Lottos lets people all over the world bet on the biggest lotteries anywhere without ever needing to leave home to pick up a ticket or to cash out their winnings. Some of the biggest prizes in lottery draws are found in the offering from Euro Millions to Powerball.

Lotteries may not have the same odds as some casino games or the steady return on investment some sports prognosticators can realize, but they do offer the biggest life-changing prizes in the world.

The website is easy to get around on and it works with mobile devices as well as desktop or laptop computers. The registration interface could use a little updating, especially the calendar input for date of birth, but it's useable.

There is a Help section that covers most of the questions any new player might have, but it doesn't cover everything. You may have to contact customer service for some detailed answers.

The terms & conditions are very one-sided with a lot of "at our sole discretion" type of language but a chat with a representative should clear up any misunderstandings if you also get the response in writing.
