One of the oldest, if not the oldest lotteries in the world is the North German State Lottery, better known as NKL from the German Nordwestdeutsche Klassenlotterie. Believe it or not, the North German Lottery goes back to the year 1612 and has been running in its current form since 1947.
The German government insures and endorses the NKL, so payment is always guaranteed. This fact alone makes this one of the world's most secure lottery systems.
In all, there are a total of 2.1 million prizes that range in award size from 140 to 16 million euros. The NKL sets all prize awards in advance, allowing you to choose your play plan with confidence.
Your purchased ticket numbers are played every single day, year round. The NKL guarantees that the maximum prize of 16 million Euros will be won at least once each series to a maximum of twelve times each year.
The NKL we will be happy to tailor your ticket order to meet your budgetary needs. You are also permitted to enter the lottery system at any time even though the series run from April to September and October to March provided tickets are available, although it's recommended to begin play at the start of the series as otherwise you have to back-pay the draws you have missed. This is necessary as otherwise the prize awards could not be guaranteed. This can only be accomplished if every ticket in the game has been paid for every class. However, you're free to cancel your subscription at anytime that suits you, there's no requirement to take part in a whole 6-month series.
