Super Lotto 638 (威力彩) is a Taiwan Lottery game with two number zones: pick 6 numbers from 1 to 38 in Zone 1 and 1 number from 1 to 8 in Zone 2. Draws are held every Monday and Thursday. The first and second prizes are rolling pools.
How to play
- Zone 1: choose 6 numbers from 01 to 38
- Zone 2: choose 1 number from 01 to 08
- Each entry costs NT$ 100
Zone 2 is a separate set of balls, so it can show the same number as Zone 1 (for example 06 in Zone 1 and 06 in Zone 2). The two zones are checked separately.
Entry types
- Quick Pick: the system picks both zones
- Self Pick: you choose both zones
- Package: choose extra numbers in either zone and the system combines them into several entries; the cost grows with the number of entries
Draw schedule
Every Monday and Thursday at 20:30 Taiwan time. Results appear on our Super Lotto results page after each draw.
