Emirates Draw announced a new raffle as it marked its first anniversary. This time, participation is much easier, with millions of dirhams up for grabs.

The game — called Emirates Draw EASY6 — requires participants to purchase a pencil for only Dh15. The new format offers higher chances of winning as entrants have to select six numbers out of a pool of only 39, which is considered among the lowest worldwide.

Promising a grand prize of Dh10 million in the main draw, the initiative supports Emirates Draw’s flagship social responsibility programme aiming to restore the coral reefs of the UAE.

The EASY6 draws will be held every Friday at 9pm UAE time, with the first episode to be broadcast live on September 30.

Paul Chader, head of marketing at Emirates Draw, expects the new game to appeal to a significant segment of the fast-growing draws audience.

“Progressing from one to two weekly games meets our players’ expectations as Emirates Draw EASY6 is poised to cater for a wider number of participants with exponentially higher opportunities to win at a lower entry price," he said.

How to play?

Participants get the option to enter the weekly Friday draw by purchasing an Dh15 pencil on www.emiratesdraw.com or through the app, available on both Android and Apple stores.

After registering online at www.emiratesdraw.com or the mobile app, participants select their preferred six-digit numbers out of a pool of 39 balls, or have the system choose their numbers at random via the ‘Quick-Pick’ button.

Participants can buy tickets for up to five consecutive weeks (five drawings) in advance by selecting the “Multiple Upcoming Draws” button.

Because of its multi-prizes feature, every ticket enters participants into two draws:

>> A raffle draw where six lucky participants are guaranteed to win Dh15,000 each;

>> The main draw that features four prize categories starting at Dh5, and going up to a grand prize of Dh10 million when all six numbers are matched.

Here’s why EASY6 claims to be simple

Matched numbers do not need to be in any specific order and the number of balls to select from stands at no more than 39, which is considered among the lowest worldwide.

Participants who match three out of six numbers win Dh5 each, while those who match four out of six numbers share a prize of Dh15,000, and those matching five out of six numbers share Dh150,000.

Finally, those who match all six numbers share the Dh10 million Grand Prize.
