Balloon Pop

How to play · Balloon Pop

One balloon per ticket. Pop it to see the result that ticket already holds.

How it works

  1. Pick how many tickets you want. Each one is a real ticket number in Tech Vault Instant Wins.
  2. Pay from your NextLife Competitions wallet. There is no checkout page.
  3. Pop the balloon, or press Reveal result. Popping it faster or slower changes nothing.
  4. Reveal each ticket when you are ready. Nothing is revealed for you, and you can come back to a ticket later.

How you win

If a ticket holds an instant-win prize, the result shows the prize straight away. Site credit is added to your wallet at once. For other prizes our team emails you to arrange it; cash prizes are paid within 14 days of your claim.

Odds, before you enter

Instant-win odds: 684 winning ticket numbers across 10,000 available ticket numbers. Overall chance of an instant win: approximately 1 in 14.6 per ticket.
