What Are Lottery Syndicates?

Quite simply lottery syndicates are groups of people who want a better chance to win the lottery jackpot.

The dictionary defines it like this:

syn·di·cate An association of people formed to engage in an enterprise or promote a common interest.

Boring! Now this is more like it:

A group of enlightened lottery players who know the huge benefit of swapping a share of the winnings for massively better chances of actually winning.

A lotto syndicate (also called groups or pools) is therefore a bunch of people who put their lottery money together. The head of the pool buys as many tickets as possible for the money collected. The winnings are then shared equally between the group.

You get an instant increase in your chances of winning - because you are now playing with more tickets than you would ever buy on your own. And at no extra cost.

The downside is having to share the winnings. But when even a smaller share of a jackpot win can change your life, it's not much of a downside!
