Shorter odds are not automatically better value — shorter-odds games pay smaller top prizes. Cost per unit of chance (price × odds) is the cleanest single comparison.

Tax on winnings in Netherlands

The Netherlands levies gaming tax (kansspelbelasting) on lottery prizes above €449 — the rate rose from 30.5% to 34.2% in 2025 and to 37.8% from 1 January 2026. For licensed Dutch operators the tax is withheld at source, so winners receive the net prize; wins of €449 or less are exempt.
