HOW TO CALCULATE WINNINGS

Winnings on fixed odds are easiest to calculate when the maximum number of lines obtainable have been secured. Just multiply the amount staked by the odd for the coupon that week.

However if in a permutation game, you get at least the minimum selection required, to determine your winnings, first you must know the lines of your selection, then your winning lines which is defined by the numbers you get correctly in your selection. You can then calculate your winning as follows:

1. 1. Multiply your winning lines by the amount staked per line
2. 2. Multiply what you get in
3. 3. Above by the odd for the game that week

For example: If you make a permutation of 3 from 6, the total number of lines is 20. If your total investment on the coupon is N500, that means the coupon was staked at N25 per line. If out of the 6 games, 5 are correct, your winning line is 10. If the odd for the game that week is 40, then your winning will be:

1. 1. 10 multiplied by 25 = 250
2. 2. 250 multiplied by 40 =10,000
