PLAY MATKA ONLINE
How could we forget about one of India's most popular betting games?
Despite the popular misconception, it is not illegal to play matka online.
Matka originated during the British Raj and has gone through some changes over time.
The rules to play Matka online at Lottoland are in line with the general rules of the modern game which is still very popular across India. First you choose 3 numbers between 0 and 9. These 3 numbers are then added up and the second digit of the number which is produced is written next to the original 3 numbers, leaving 4 numbers. You then need to bet on the likelihood of this number sequence being chosen from the pot. In the olden days, the numbers were put into an actual matka earthen pot, although originally, bets were taken on the opening and closing rates of the New York Cotton Exchange and the Bombay Cotton Exchange.
Lottoland's Jhatka Matka uses modern technology to generate the numbers at random, this Random and insured Number Generator (RinG™) is regulated by EU insurance legislation.

The lottery is a universal game and luck knows no border! My adventurous spirit has led to me living in three continents, opening my eyes to the world. Lottoland gives you the chance to explore a world of lotteries at your fingertips. I wish to share some of the greatest lotto stories with you and hope to inspire you. As a history buff, I find it fascinating that the ancient Greeks were betting on the Olympics and that the first recorded lottery dates back to 15th century Milan. Virtutis Fortuna Comes.
