Western Max tickets cost CAD 2.00 each, giving players a chance to win a fixed jackpot of CAD 2 million. Eight further prize tiers ranging from a Free Play to CA$ 100,000 are up for grabs and on top of that each ticket is entered into 14 additional draws that take place simultaneously giving a further chance to win or share a CAD 1 million prize.

Players can add Extra to their Western Max ticket, which costs an additional CAD 1.00 to play, giving the chance to win CAD 250,000 by matching your randomly generated 7 digit number to that which is drawn. 

Players can enter up to 25 draws at once through Advance Play. When purchasing their Western Max ticket, players may also input the same numbers into the Lotto Max game. 

How to Play Western Max 

You may play online, using the mobile app or at a Loto-Québec retailer where you can select your own numbers or choose one or more options randomly generated by the Loto-Québec computer. 

The strategy is simple: choose a 7 digit combination from 1 to 50 or opt for a Quick Pick. Along with your selection you also get 2 additional Quick Picks and to win, you must obtain three, four, five, six or ideally seven Western Max winning numbers which match the numbers drawn that evening. The "+B" symbol next to the bonus number indicates that it applies only to categories 6/7+B through 5/7+B; 4/7+B; and 3/7+ B.

Play Western Max Responsibly

Playing the Western Max Lottery is a great way to have some fun and potentially win big bucks. However, it’s important to play responsibly so that you don’t end up ruining your finances or your life. Here are a few tips for playing the Western Max Lottery responsibly:

  1. Only gamble what you can afford to lose. This is especially important if you’re trying to rebuild your credit or save money for a specific goal.
  2. Don’t spend more time gambling than you can afford. Gambling should be a fun pastime, not a full-time job! Set strict limits on how much time and money you’re willing to spend on it each week or month.
  3. Stick to lotteries that you know how to play. If you don’t understand the rules of a game, it’s best not to play it – especially if there is money on the line!
