Winners must personally present the winning ticket, along with two valid forms of identification, at the PCSO’s main office in Mandaluyong City. The prize is tax-free, but the winner is advised to consult with financial experts on how to manage the newfound wealth wisely.

The PCSO has reiterated its reminder to the public to buy lottery tickets only from authorized outlets and to be cautious of scams. The agency has emphasized that all winning numbers and prize amounts are officially announced through their official channels, including their website, social media pages, and televised draws.
The PCSO also took the opportunity to remind the public that proceeds from lottery games are not just for the winners. A significant portion of the funds generated from ticket sales goes to charitable programs, medical assistance, and other government projects that benefit underprivileged Filipinos. This is part of the agency’s mission to raise funds for health programs, medical assistance, and services, especially for those in need.
As the new week begins, lottery enthusiasts across the country are already gearing up for the next draw, hoping that they might be the next lucky winner to strike it big.
