One simple click has turned into a life-changing moment for an online player in County Kildare, who has won the €1,000,000 top prize in the Daily Million draw.  
After matching all six numbers plus the bonus in the 2pm Saturday, June 14 draw, this player becomes the latest to join Ireland’s growing list of National Lottery millionaires. 
 
The Daily Million player purchased their normal play ticket online on Friday, June 13 and the winning numbers were: 2, 9, 12, 16, 28, 29 and 25.  
 
This is the fourth Daily Million jackpot awarded in 2025 and the twelfth millionaire created by the National Lottery so far this year. 
 
Emma Monaghan, National Lottery spokesperson said “A Daily Million player has woken up as Ireland’s newest millionaire today after scooping the top prize of €1,000,000 in Saturday’s 2pm draw. The Kildare winner has been added to the roll call of big wins for this year, taking the spot of 12th National Lottery millionaire for 2025. We’re now urging all of our online players to check their accounts today to see if they hold the winning numbers, and to contact the National Lottery Claims team as soon as possible!” 
 
The National Lottery has confirmed that a notification and an email has been sent to the online player in Kildare.
The top prize winner is advised to make contact with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize in Lottery Headquarters. 
 
Nearly 30 cent in every €1 spent on National Lottery games goes back to Good Causes in the areas of sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage and the Irish Language.
In total, more than €6.5 billion has been raised for Good Causes since the National Lottery was established 37 years ago. In 2024 alone, €239.3 million was raised for local Good Causes in communities across Ireland.
