In the first two months of 2024, bets placed in Santa Catarina on Caixa Lotteries yielded just over R$30.9 million to players, including all modalities.
More than half of this value comes from a single game: Lotofácil. With draws every day paying million-dollar prizes, the modality paid out R$16.5 million, more than the “darling” Mega-Sena.
With no winner from Santa Catarina out of the six dozen in 2024, Mega-Sena paid “only” R$8 million this year.
In just one contest in 2024, for example, the mega prize was R$205 million, won by a bet from Recife (PE).
