Shuffle believes its brand-new SHFL Lottery model will reshape the future of crypto-based lotteries.

The Wait is Over - the SHFL Lottery is Here!

After numerous tweets from Shuffle.com founder Noah Drummett and several rounds of beta testing, the new and exciting SHFL Lottery is here.

Lotteries are the most-played gaming product on the planet, but Shuffle insists that crypto and online gambling lotteries have always underachieved, that is, until now.

What makes the SHFL Lottery so ground-breaking is that it’s completely free. It is powered by Shuffle’s native crypto token, SHFL, which players use to buy tickets and stake.

All the while you have SHFL staked, your ticket(s) will be entered into the SHFL Lottery draw. You can, at any time, unstake your SHFL, in essence, getting your money back.

How to Play the Shuffle (SHFL) Lottery

Entry into the weekly SHFL Lottery on Shuffle.com is easy. Although it is free, there is a requirement to stake SHFL tokens. Follow these steps to get started.

Create a Shuffle.com Account

Players who are not registered must create an account. While registering, you can also redeem our new and exclusive Shuffle.com promo code if you want to claim the 100% up to $1,000 welcome bonus

Get SHFL Tokens

Currently, the only means of entry for the Shuffle Lottery is with SHFL tokens. There are three options for players to get hold of this cryptocurrency; they are:

Crypto Exchange: Buy SHFL directly from XT.com or Uniswap
Moonpay: Shuffle provides an option on its platform for players to buy SHFL with a credit or debit card through Moonpay or Swapped
Convert: Also on Shuffle.com is an SHFL convert feature. This ‘converts’ the crypto you hold, such as BTC, for SHFL

Play the SHFL Lottery

Click SHFL Lottery from the menu on Shuffle, and tap on Play Lottery. Select the number of tickets you want to purchase. One ticket costs 50 SHFL.

Pick Your Lucky Numbers

This lottery uses the Powerball format. Therefore, you must select five numbers between 1 and 55, and one Powerball number between 1 and 18. There is an auto-fill option if you want to take a lucky dip on your answers.

Stake SHFL

Finally, click Stake SHFL. This will enter your lottery ticket numbers into the draw. You can unstake your SHFL whenever you desire. This will remove your tickets from the next lottery draw.

Prize Distribution

With the lottery offering an RTP of 100%, the entire prize pool will be shared among eligible winning ticket holders. Here’s a breakdown of how the pot is distributed and the numbers you need to match.

Place/Position	Prize (% of Total Pool)	Numbers/Balls Matched
Jackpot	40%	5 main numbers + 1 Powerball
2nd	14%	5 main numbers
3rd	8%	4 main numbers + 1 Powerball
4th	8%	4 main numbers
5th	6%	3 main numbers + 1 Powerball
6th	5%	3 main numbers
7th	4%	2 main numbers + 1 Powerball
8th	7%	1 main number + 1 Powerball

All winning ticket holders receive an equal percentage payout in accordance with the table above. For example:

If the total prize pool is $1,000,0000.
That means the prize pool for matching 3 main numbers is $50,000 (5%)
If there are 100 winning tickets that match 3 main numbers, the payout for each ticket is $500.

SHFL Lottery FAQs

How much SHFL do you need to play the Shuffle.com Lottery?

One SHFL Lottery ticket costs 50 SHFL. However, these coins are merely staked. You can unstake them again at any time and sell for USD or any other currency.

Is the SHFL really free?

Yes, it is, but you must stake at least 50 SHFL for a ticket. While the price of all cryptocurrencies fluctuates, currently, 1 SHFL is around $0.50. Therefore, you need to stake $25 worth of SHFL.
