Bet on the Champions League at 888Starz to unlock tickets towards a draw for a growing €88,800 prize pool.

The UEFA Champions League is back, and in celebration of its return, 888Starz has launched the “Jackpot of the Year” promotion.

To take part, just bet on UCL games between the 8th of September 2026 and the 27th of January 2027. The more you bet, the more tickets you will earn, and in turn the greater your chances of winning.

The campaign begins with an €88,800 prize pool but it is set to grow with every qualifying bet that is placed, so who knows how high it may climb.

What is a Qualifying Bet?

A Qualifying Bet is a bet that meets the promotion’s eligibility requirements.

It must be a single bet with odds of 1.7 or higher on a Champions League event;
Or, an accumulator where every selection has odds of at least 1.5 and at least one selection is on a Champions League match.
Bets must use real funds and cannot be placed with Advancebet funds, bonus funds, or promo codes.
Bets settled at odds of 1.00 or sold bets are also excluded.
The minimum qualifying stake is €3.

As long as your bet meets all of the above criteria, you will be eligible for tickets towards the final prize draw.

Maximising Your Tickets

While the minimum qualifying bet may be just €3, you’ll find that you can earn far more tickets by increasing your bet size.

Bet Size (€)	Tickets Earned
3+	1
5+	3
10+	10
20+	25
40+	60
60+	90
100+	180
200+	380
400+	800
450+	1,000

Prizes as Percentages

Because we won’t know the final size of the prize pool, the rewards per position have been listed as a percentage of the final amount.

Prize	Number of Prizes
15%	1
10%	1
7%	1
5%	1
3.80%	1
2%	5
1%	10
0.49%	80

In total, there will be 100 players earning a prize from this campaign. The 1st place prize before any bets have been placed sits at €13,320, but this will surely climb significantly higher.
