Copia de Copia de Daily ONCE Coupon today: result of Thursday, July 9 and winning number

ONCE raffles and gambling games are supported by a dual regulatory framework: on one hand, the general gaming regime in Spain (which sets the basic framework); on the other, a set of specific rules that recognize the uniqueness of ONCE and regulate the coupon, instant lottery, and active gaming. Additionally, ONCE's own regulations approved by the Administration and published in the BOE are added. Below is a summary of the key pieces of this framework.

1. General gaming framework applicable to ONCE

Although not exclusive to ONCE, its games fall within the general state gaming regulation, in particular:

• Royal Decree-Law 16/1977, of February 25, which regulates the criminal, administrative, and tax aspects of games of chance, betting, and wagers, partially in force according to the BOE (text in BOE).
• Law 13/2011, of May 27, on gaming regulation, which partially repeals provisions of Law 46/1985 and Royal Decree-Law 16/1977 itself and establishes the modern state-wide gaming framework (Law 13/2011).

These rules set general principles (authorizations, administrative control, sanctioning regime, consumer protection, etc.) that also apply to ONCE lotteries insofar as they are state-wide.

2. Basic legal regime of ONCE and its authorization to operate games

The legal status of ONCE and the basis of its gaming authorizations are mainly found in:

• Royal Decree 358/1991, of March 15, which reorganizes the National Organization of Spanish Blind People (R.D. 358/1991). It defines ONCE as a Public Law Corporation of a social nature and states that it is governed by its own specific regulations and that it enjoys a set of public authorizations in gaming matters to finance its social purposes. The decree itself foresees that modifications to the coupon regime and other ONCE games requiring prior authorization must be submitted to the Council of Ministers.
• This royal decree has been updated, among others, by Royal Decree 1200/1999, Royal Decree 1359/2005, and Royal Decree 394/2011, maintaining the idea that ONCE has a unique gaming regime under state protection.
• Certain State General Budget Laws consolidate and frame this regime, highlighting:
  • Law 50/1984, of December 30, State General Budget Law for 1985 (PGE 1985).
  • Law 46/1985, of December 27, State General Budget Law for 1986, partially modified and later affected by Law 13/2011 (PGE 1986).
• Order SCB/1240/2019, of December 18, publishes the consolidated text of the ONCE Statutes, where its internal organization and the connection between social activity and game operation are developed (ONCE Statutes).

3. Specific regulations on ONCE gaming products

3.1. Traditional coupon and other historical products

The ONCE coupon has been regulated through resolutions publishing draw programs and specific regulations. An early example is the Resolution of June 5, 1992, of the Undersecretariat of Social Affairs, which publicizes the ONCE coupon draw program (1992 draw program), explicitly citing Royal Decree 358/1991 as the enabling framework.

In 2006, much of this sectoral regulation was unified with the Resolution of July 27, 2006, of the State Secretariat for Social Services, Families, and Disability, which orders the publication of the Consolidated Texts of the Regulations governing the different ONCE game modalities and products (consolidated regulations). This resolution has been partially repealed and updated later but marks a milestone in systematizing ONCE's internal gaming regime.

3.2. “ONCE Active Game” modality

Active games (for example, combination bets like “Triplex”) are regulated by a specific regulation:

• Resolution of August 23, 2016, of the State Secretariat for Social Services and Equality, which publishes the Regulation governing the products of the lottery modality called “ONCE Active Game” and implements the “ONCE Triplex” product (active game regulation).
• This regulation has been subsequently modified, among others, by the Resolution of March 31, 2020, which reviews the Regulation and publicizes the termination and implementation of several products of that modality (2020 active game modification).

3.3. Instant ticket lottery (“scratch cards”)

ONCE's instant lottery has its own regulation and very recent successive modifications:

• Resolution of April 4, 2023, of the State Secretariat for Social Rights, which publishes the approval of a new Regulation governing the products of the lottery modality called “ONCE Instant Ticket Lottery” (2023 instant lottery regulation), corrected by the Resolution of April 26, 2023 (error correction).
• This regulation has undergone multiple modifications due to the implementation or termination of specific products, among others:
  • Resolution of April 4, 2023, which introduces a first modification and publicizes new products (modification 4/4/2023).
  • Resolution of November 27, 2023, which again modifies the Regulation and publicizes the implementation, launch, and termination of several products (modification 27/11/2023).
  • Subsequent chains of modifications in 2024–2026, such as the Resolution of February 1, 2024 (modification 1/2/2024) and the Resolution of January 29, 2026, which updates the Regulation and product appendices again (modification 29/1/2026).

4. Summary

Overall, ONCE gambling games are governed by: the general state gaming framework (Royal Decree-Law 16/1977 and Law 13/2011), the unique ONCE regime as a public law corporation (Royal Decree 358/1991 and Statutes published by Order SCB/1240/2019), and a specific product regulation (coupon, active game, instant lottery) articulated in regulations and periodic resolutions published in the BOE that continuously adjust the conditions of the draws and different games.

ONCE prizes, including those over 500,000 euros, are governed by a combination of state gaming and tax regulations and the organization's specific regulations. Legally, there is no “special regime” solely for exceeding 500,000 euros, but in practice, these amounts are collected at specialized centers, require full identification of the winner, and are subject to the special tax on lottery prizes. Key points are: very short expiration period (30 calendar days for the Coupon), obligation to present the original ticket or valid electronic identification, identity verification, and application of the corresponding tax withholding.

1. Applicable basic regulations

The general framework for gaming and state lotteries is contained in Law 13/2011 on gaming regulation, amended by Law 23/2022. For ONCE, the most relevant specific regulations are:

• ONCE Coupon Regulation, approved by the Resolution of April 4, 2023 (Coupon Regulation).
• “ONCE Active Game” Regulation (Eurojackpot, Super Once, etc.), also approved on April 4, 2023 (Active Game Regulation).

ONCE prize taxation is regulated in Law 16/2012, which introduces the special tax on prizes from certain lotteries and bets (thirty-third additional provision of the IRPF Law).

2. Winner identification and prohibitions

ONCE regulations establish that, when the prize is subject to special tax, the entity:

• Must require full identification of the recipient before paying the prize, to apply the corresponding tax withholding (expressly indicated in the Coupon Regulation).
• In the case of Internet tickets, the client must have documentary identity verification to withdraw the awarded funds.

The Active Game Regulation also details that it is prohibited to both play and claim prizes for:

• Minors under 18 years old.
• Persons legally incapacitated or by judicial resolution.
• Persons linked to ONCE in gaming matters and other groups established by regulation.

In practice, for a very large prize (such as one over 500,000 euros), the following is required:

• Official identity document (DNI, NIE, or valid passport).
• Additional documentation if the prize is shared (identification of all co-holders).

3. Place and method of collecting large prizes

The Coupon Regulation distinguishes between payment at sales points and central structures. Small prizes can be paid directly by authorized sales agents or points, but large prizes are paid:

• At ONCE Centers or collaborating entities contracted by the organization.

For example, the appendix for the “Weekend Coupon” product details that the first payment of a 360,000 € prize is made at an ONCE Center or collaborating entity, with delivery of a document justifying the right to future annuities and prior application of tax withholding. This scheme illustrates the management of very large prizes: centralized collection, formal documentation, and installment payments in some products.

4. Expiration and claim deadlines

The strictest aspect is the deadline to present the ticket for payment. Article 40 of the Coupon Regulation establishes that:

• The right to claim the winning coupon expires 30 calendar days from the day after the draw.
• If the last day is Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, it is extended to the next working day (Saturday is not considered working for these purposes).
• After this period, “the right to receive prizes lapses.”

For Internet tickets, the prize is credited to the virtual account, but effective withdrawal requires proper identity documentation.

In case of conflict, interested parties can file a claim before the ONCE Director General within one month from the expiration deadline, with subsequent appeal (articles 41 and 42 of the Coupon Regulation and article 25 of the Active Game Regulation).

5. Withholding and taxes on large prizes

According to Law 16/2012, prizes from ONCE-authorized gaming modalities are subject to a special tax when exceeding a minimum exemption. The thirty-third additional provision establishes that:

• Prizes with a total amount equal to or less than 2,500 euros are exempt.
• If the prize exceeds that amount, only the part exceeding 2,500 euros is taxed.
• The special tax rate is 20% on the taxable base (the non-exempt part).
• ONCE must apply a withholding or payment on account of that 20%, which is final for the taxpayer.
• For shared prizes, the exemption, taxable base, and withholding are prorated among co-holders.

Thus, for a prize over 500,000 euros, ONCE will withhold 20% on everything exceeding 2,500 euros and pay the net amount to the winner, once identified and within the established deadlines and channels.

Besides the Daily Coupon, ONCE markets a wide range of games: the Friday Cuponazo, the Weekend Sueldazo, extraordinary Coupon draws (Christmas, Summer, Father's Day, Mother's Day, 11/11), active games like Mi Día and Super 11, and Instant Lottery (scratch cards). In recent years, the basic prize structure has remained stable, with occasional adjustments in prize percentages and the configuration of extraordinary draws, as reflected in resolutions published in the BOE. The main trend has been to strengthen prizes in the form of periodic “salaries” and maintain large million-euro jackpots in special draws. Below is a summary of the main products and how their prizes have evolved.

Main ordinary draws

Cuponazo (Friday)

The Cuponazo is ONCE's big weekly draw. According to several recent pieces from Demócrata, it is held every Friday and offers a main prize of €6,000,000 to the winning number and series, with secondary prizes for the five digits without series and various endings, as explained in the article Cuponazo ONCE today. The calendar resolutions for the second and third quarters of 2025 in the BOE (second quarter 2025 and third quarter 2025) set for the Cuponazo:

• Issuance: €40,500,000 per draw, in 135 series of 100,000 numbers.
• Prize percentage: 54.6% of total issuance.
• Price: €3 per coupon.

In recent years, the formula of a large million-euro prize with the possibility of enhanced modalities (such as the Cuponazo “XXL”) that increase the first prize has been consolidated, although exact figures of these variants are not detailed in the consulted resolutions.

Weekend Sueldazo (Saturdays and Sundays)

The Sueldazo is the Saturday and Sunday draw. Demócrata repeatedly reports the current structure: a main prize of €300,000 cash plus €5,000 per month for 20 years, for the five digits and winning series, and four second prizes of €2,000 per month for 10 years. This configuration is mentioned, for example, in ONCE celebrates the Centenary of the Ardero de Barbate throughout Spain and in several weekend draw summaries. BOE resolutions on the Weekend Coupon (third quarter 2024 calendar and third quarter 2025) establish:

• Issuance: €11,000,000 per draw (55 series).
• Prize percentage: 46% of issuance.
• Price: €2 per coupon.

In recent years, the Sueldazo structure has remained very stable: reinforcing the idea of long-term “income,” without significant changes in amounts or payment years.

Active games: Mi Día and Super 11

The same BOE resolutions from 2024 and 2025 describe the ONCE Active Game modality, which includes:

• Mi Día: a date-type game, priced at €1 per combination with 60% of revenue allocated to fixed-amount prizes in eight categories (April 30, 2025 resolution).
• Super 11: a numerical combination game with seven types of combinations and prize revenue percentages ranging, depending on type, between 49.2% and 59.9% (July 16, 2024 resolution).

In these games, evolution focuses more on adjusting percentages and combinations than on setting a single large prize visible to the public, since specific amounts depend on revenue and number of winners.

Extraordinary Coupon draws

ONCE organizes several extraordinary draws within the “ONCE Coupon” modality, with increased issuance and prizes:

• Summer Extra: 2024 and 2025 resolutions set an issuance of €72 million for the August 15 draw (120 series of 100,000 numbers, price €6), with prize structure detailed in specific resolutions (2024 and 2025).
• Mother's Day Extra: extraordinary draw with issuance of €50 million on May 4, 2025, and price €5 per coupon (April 30, 2025 resolution).
• ONCE 11/11: regulated, for example, in the resolution on the November 11, 2024 extraordinary draw (ONCE 11/11 Draw), which foresees possible accumulation of up to €3,000,000 from unsold prizes towards other products or subsequent draws.

In recent years, evolution has aimed to maintain high issuances and introduce mechanisms for accumulating unsold prizes, allowing reinforcement of jackpots in future draws without abruptly changing the general design.

Instant lottery (scratch cards)

The ONCE Instant Ticket Lottery has undergone intense regulatory evolution, with several recent modifications published in the BOE. The 2024 and 2025 resolutions record the launch and termination of different scratch card families, with series usually allocating between 58.5% and 69.5% of their face value to prizes. For example, the June 14, 2024 resolution (2024 Instant Lottery modification) and the April 30, 2025 resolution (2025 modification) detail series with:

• Between 4 and 12 million tickets per series.
• Prize percentages from 63% to 69.5% of the series value.
• Typical prize probabilities of 1 winning ticket every 3–4 sold.

Here, evolution has consisted of diversifying products (different ticket prices and prize probabilities) and adjusting the prize percentage while keeping it high to remain competitive against other gambling games.

General trends in prize evolution

From official resolutions and Demócrata coverage, three clear trends in recent years can be extracted:

• Consolidation of prizes in the form of salaries (Sueldazo) and periodic incomes in other games, responding to demand for medium- and long-term economic stability.
• Maintenance of large unique cash prizes in extraordinary Coupon draws, with increasing issuances and mechanisms to accumulate unsold prizes to enhance appeal without indefinitely increasing risk.
• Greater sophistication of the Instant Lottery, with more products, different prize probabilities, and a range of return percentages to players often above 60% of the amount played.

No further information is available in the consulted sources about very specific changes (for example, the exact year current Sueldazo amounts were set), but the overall picture points to a stable offer in flagship products and dynamic changes in scratch cards and special draws.
