The booster fund is available to contribute to the jackpot, for example to boost the initial jackpot in a sequence of growing jackpots.
5 balls plus the 2 lucky stars must be matched to claim the jackpot - giving a 1 in 116 million chance of winning, as opposed to 14 million to 1 for the 6/49 Lotto draw (a 6 from 49 game) .
The overall odds of winning a prize are 1:13. The exact value of prizes depends on how many tickets are sold and how many people match the same quantity of numbers as you.
