Participating in the Daily Lotto in South Africa was a straightforward process. In-store, customers could obtain a betslip from any lottery store, select five numbers between 1 and 36 or opt for a Quick Pick, and pay R3 per ticket, with a maximum entry of R150. Players could choose to enter up to 10 consecutive draws, or select a single draw.

Upon purchasing, players were required to sign their tickets in case they needed to claim a prize. If a ticket was lost, the signed ticket could only be used by the person who signed it.

For those playing online, the process was equally simple. Players needed to set up a lottery account and make a deposit to pay for their tickets. They could choose five numbers between 1 and 36 or select the 'Quick Pick' option for a randomly generated set of numbers. Players could participate in multiple boards and determine whether to enter a single draw or multiple draws.

Once they had finalized their selections, they could confirm and pay for their entry. The Daily Lotto draws occurred shortly after 9pm every evening, and ticket sales were available until 8:30pm.
