How to play Thunderball
Lottery FM does not sell tickets — this is how the game works wherever you buy one.
Thunderball requires selecting five numbers from 1 to 39 plus one Thunderball from 1 to 14. Tickets cost £1 per game. Draws occur Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Division 1 (all five numbers plus Thunderball) wins a fixed £500,000. Divisions 2–9 reward winners matching five numbers without Thunderball, four numbers with or without Thunderball, three numbers with or without Thunderball, two numbers with Thunderball, one number with Thunderball, and Thunderball only. Every prize, including the top prize, is a fixed cash amount paid in full to each winner — none of it is divided among multiple winners, and the same fixed amounts are on offer every draw whether or not they're won. Prizes are only capped, and rounded down, if a draw's total payout would exceed four times that draw's sales.

Thunderball — frequently asked questions
When are Thunderball draws held?Draws happen Tue · Fri · 8:00pm, Wed · Sat · 8:15pm London. Results are published on this site within minutes of the official draw closing.
What's the minimum jackpot?£500K (fixed) is a fixed prize, not a rolling jackpot — the licence states Thunderball prizes are fixed "in all categories," so "there are no rollovers in any Prize category." The only exception is a rare capping rule if a draw's total prizes would exceed four times that draw's sales.
How are the prize divisions calculated?Every prize tier is a fixed cash amount, including the £500,000 top prize — none of it is pooled or divided among multiple winners. Prizes are only capped, and rounded down, in the rare case a draw's total prizes would exceed four times that draw's sales.
Are the results on this page official?No. Numbers shown here are aggregated from public draw broadcasts and operator pages and should be treated as unofficial. Always reconcile your ticket against the operating lottery's own record before claiming any prize.
Can I check older draws?Yes — the past-draws list below loads up to 3,964 indexed Thunderball draws, or open any individual date for the full division payout breakdown.
