EuroMillions results: Winning numbers, prize breakdown and £34m rollover for Friday 12 September 2025

The numbers and who won what

The EuroMillions results for Friday, 12 September 2025, delivered a rollover. The winning numbers were 5, 10, 23, 31, and 37, with Lucky Stars 3 and 11. It was draw number 1,876, run by The National Lottery (operator Allwyn) using draw machine 15 and ball set 19. The headline jackpot on the night was £25,768,241.

No ticket matched all five main numbers and both Lucky Stars, so the top prize will climb again for Tuesday’s draw. That sets up an estimated £34 million jackpot, which usually drives a spike in lines sold and syndicates getting involved.

There were still strong returns below the top tier. Two tickets matched five main numbers plus one Lucky Star, each worth £333,007.50. Five players matched all five main numbers without a Lucky Star and banked £31,131.70 each. Another 49 tickets hit four main numbers plus both Lucky Stars for £989.40 apiece.

In the lower tiers, wins were widespread. Across all participating countries, the game paid out to more than 1.9 million entries. At the entry-level prize point, 1,136,356 players matched two main numbers and collected £3.70 each. Small wins like these make up the bulk of payments every draw and are a reminder that most prizes aren’t life-changing, but they do keep a lot of players in the game.

In the UK, one player became an instant millionaire thanks to the Millionaire Maker raffle. The winning code was XVSM02393, which is worth £1,000,000 to the ticket holder. If that’s your code, keep your ticket safe and start the claims process now.

Quick refresher: Millionaire Maker is a UK-only add-on to EuroMillions. Every UK line you buy is automatically given a unique code, and at least one code is drawn per EuroMillions game to win £1 million. Sometimes there are special events with multiple £1m winners; Friday’s draw was a standard one with a single top prize code.

There were extra results in Ireland too. The Ireland Only Raffle awarded multiple €5,000 prizes to matching codes. The EuroMillions Plus numbers were 1, 3, 11, 12, and 40. There were no top-tier Plus winners, but 71 players matched four numbers for €2,000 each, according to the Irish operator. EuroMillions Plus is a separate draw that gives Irish players extra chances at fixed prizes.

How to check, claim, and what’s next

Think you’ve won? Check your lines carefully against Friday’s results. Digital players will see wins credited to their accounts, subject to verification. If you bought a paper ticket, compare the numbers, sign the back if you haven’t already, and store it somewhere safe and dry. You can claim smaller wins at most retailers; larger wins need to go through The National Lottery’s official claims team.

There’s a deadline. For this draw, prizes must be claimed by 11 December 2025. Miss that date and the money goes to National Lottery-funded projects. If you suspect you’ve lost a winning ticket, contact the operator right away. They can advise what’s possible, but timing is key.

Here’s a simple checklist if your numbers have come up:

• Confirm the date and draw: Friday, 12 September 2025, draw number 1,876.
• Match your numbers: 5, 10, 23, 31, 37 and Lucky Stars 3, 11.
• If you’re the Millionaire Maker code XVSM02393, prepare proof and start your claim.
• For paper tickets, sign the back and photograph both sides as a backup.
• Contact the National Lottery for guidance on claiming larger prizes.

Tuesday’s rollover is expected to hit about £34 million. EuroMillions jackpots are set in euros and converted for local markets, and they can roll over repeatedly until they hit the cap set by the game operator. When rollovers build, so do the crowds—office pools and family syndicates tend to expand their stakes, and queues get longer close to cutoff time.

Odds are always the reality check. The probability of winning the EuroMillions jackpot (five main numbers plus both Lucky Stars) is 1 in 139,838,160. Matching five numbers and one Lucky Star is 1 in 6,991,908; five numbers without a Star is 1 in 3,107,515. At the other end, matching two main numbers—Friday’s most common win—lands roughly once in every 22 entries. Those figures explain why rollovers are common and why lots of smaller prizes are paid every night.

For the curious, draw logistics are tightly controlled. Each EuroMillions game uses pre-approved draw machines and ball sets. Independent adjudicators observe the process, and multiple checks happen before and after the draw to lock in the results. Friday’s identifiers—machine 15, ball set 19—are part of that audit trail.

If you’re playing on Tuesday, a couple of practical tips: Buy early to avoid website rushes and store closures near the sales deadline. Double-check your lines for number repeats you don’t intend. If you’re in a syndicate, agree on who buys the tickets, how shares are recorded, and how to handle claims. Clear records prevent awkward conversations later.

It’s also worth a word on scams. The National Lottery will never ask you to pay a fee to release a prize, and you can’t win a raffle you didn’t enter. If someone contacts you about a “EuroMillions prize” out of the blue, treat it as suspicious and check through official channels before you respond.

Finally, play within your limits. Set a budget and stick to it. EuroMillions is entertainment, not a strategy to make money. If it stops being fun, step back.
