Are Lottario winnings taxed in Canada?
No. Lottery winnings are tax-free in Canada — you keep 100% of the prize. Income later earned from investing the winnings can be taxable.
How long do I have to claim a Lottario prize?
In most Canadian provinces you have 12 months from the draw date to claim. Confirm the deadline and process with OLG.
Can I stay anonymous if I win Lottario?
No. In Ontario, OLG publishes the name and municipality of prize winners — you cannot claim a major prize anonymously.
When is the Lottario cut-off?
Ticket sales close shortly before each Lottario draw on Saturday evening. Buy before the cut-off to be entered for that night's draw.
Does Lottizen sell Lottario tickets?
No. Lottizen is an independent information site — we track winning numbers and statistics only. Buy tickets from OLG or an authorized retailer.
