Whether to cut losses or to secure your winnings, you will want to know everything about Lotto247’s withdrawal processes - hence, this article.
I will admit - there are different reasons that lead to a player wanting to withdraw funds.
Perhaps, you want to cut your losses. Respect.
Perhaps, you won a few prizes and want to play defense. Respect.
Perhaps, you won the jackpot, still ecstatic, but still in your wits and needs the step-by-step process on exactly how to withdraw your winnings.
Whatever your reasons may be, and I hope it's the 3rd on the list above, I took the liberty to put together everything you need to know about withdrawals - how to withdraw, different options and methods, wait time, minimum amount, and everything else that I think could help.

Withdrawal Limits
Taxation
Are your winnings taxable? Depends.
It depends on the lottery and where it originates. Some countries tax lottery winnings, some don't. Local indian taxes don't apply.
Now, while I don't have a list of countries that would demand taxes out of your winnings, feel free to email info@lotto247.com about whether taxation applies to your winnings, or not.
Minimum Amount
Of course, sky's the limit as to how much you can win from Lotto247 and its lotteries. However, there's a limit as to the lowest possible win that you can request a withdrawal for - including that trigger when they call to congratulate you that you won.

Wait Time
Even if Lotto247 has 500,000 customers they deal with, your winnings are guaranteed - no matter how big or small. In fact, in Lotto247's first 5 years, they've awarded over USD 3 Million. Your winnings are guaranteed. There's no doubt about that.
There is, however, a time factor on when you'll receive it when you request a withdrawal depending on the amount of withdrawal, you will need to wait for at least 2 weeks; and, for large withdrawals, give them 4 weeks to complete the process.
Withdrawal Options: Lump-sum Payout Option Vs Annuity Pay-out Option
Let’s imagine - you won the jackpot. You won big. What now?
Depending on the lottery you won the jackpot on, you are likely to have at least one option for a payout - the lump-sum payout where you get the whole jackpot amount in one big bang!
However, some lotteries do offer the annuity pay-out option. Which begs the question - what on earth is an annuity pay-out option?
There are 3 items that will help me illustrate the annuity pay-out option:
- You’ll receive a percentage of your winnings upfront.
- You’ll receive yearly payments in a predetermined number of years.
- The yearly payment increments by 4% each year which makes your final payout the biggest you’ll receive.
For a complete list of lotteries and their withdrawal options please see below.
