Urgent ticket appeal as location of 12th lotto millionaire of 2025 confirmed
Players in Kildare have been urged to check their tickets as soon as possible
A lucky Lotto player from Co Kildare became the 12th National Lottery millionaire of 2025 after winning the Daily Million top prize on Saturday.
The National Lottery confirmed on Sunday that the €1 million prize was claimed by an online player in Kildare, with one simple click turning into a life-changing moment.
The punter in question purchased their ticket online on Friday and matched all six numbers - 2, 9, 12, 16, 28, 29 and the bonus number - 25.
It was the 4th Daily Million jackpot awarded in 2025 and the 12th millionaire created by the National Lottery so far this year.
Emma Monaghan, National Lottery spokesperson, said: “A Daily Million player has woken up as Ireland’s newest millionaire today after scooping the top prize of €1,000,000 in Saturday’s 2pm draw. The Kildare winner has been added to the roll call of big wins for this year, taking the spot of 12th National Lottery millionaire for 2025.
"We’re now urging all of our online players to check their accounts today to see if they hold the winning numbers, and to contact the National Lottery Claims team as soon as possible!”
The National Lottery has confirmed that a notification and an email has been sent to the online player in Kildare.
The top prize winner is advised to make contact with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize in Lottery Headquarters.
Saturday’s Daily Million win means that three people have won amounts totalling €2 million from the National Lottery in the space of a week, with two consecutive winners of the top prize of €500,000 in the EuroMillions Plus draws on Tuesday and Friday night. Both winning tickets, the National Lottery revealed, were sold in Dublin.
And it could get even better for Irish punters next week, with a €250 million jackpot - the highest it can possibly be - rolling over to next Tuesday’s EuroMillions draw after it went unclaimed on Friday night.
Under EuroMillions community games rules, the jackpot can go no higher than the €250 million that has been in place for the last three draws but that jackpot can only remain capped for five successive draws.
If there is still no jackpot winner in the fifth draw then the full amount - the €250 Million and any excess Jackpot value - flows down to the next prize tier that there is/are a winner(s) and so it must be won.
Such a situation may come into play if there is no jackpot winner in the draw next Tuesday (June 17) and next Friday (June 20) so keep your eyes peeled.
The National Lottery has reminded players that tickets for Tuesday night’s draw can be purchased in-store, through the National Lottery app or at http://www.lottery.ie ahead of the 7.30pm cut-off time.
