Daily 4 ranks among the West Virginia Lottery’s most accessible draw games, giving you a chance to play every single day of the week. With various play styles and prize levels that change based on how you wager, Daily 4 is a game of chance that puts flexibility front and center. Whether you’re visiting your local retailer or playing online through iPLAY, here’s everything you need to know about how Daily 4 works.
What is Daily 4?
Daily 4 is a four-digit draw game available through the West Virginia Lottery. True to its name, the game runs daily, with drawings held every evening at 6:59 PM ET.
You pick a four-digit number between 0000 and 9999 and decide how you want to play those digits. Your chosen play style determines your winning possibilities and potential prize amounts.
With a top prize of $5,000 for a $1 Exact Order bet, Daily 4 gives you regular opportunities to try your chances by hoping to match digits in specific arrangements.
How to play Daily 4
Getting started with Daily 4 involves these straightforward steps:
- Pick your four digits
Choose any four-digit number between 0000 and 9999. You can select your own numbers or opt for a Quick Pick if you’d rather have the system generate a random combination for you.
- Choose your play style
Daily 4 offers several ways to play, each with its own unique rules and prize structure:
- Exact order (Straight): Your four digits must match the winning numbers in precisely the same sequence.
- Any order (Box): Your four digits need to match the winning numbers, but the sequence doesn’t matter.
- Exact + any: A split bet—part of your wager goes toward an exact order play, and part toward any order.
- Combo: This covers all possible exact order arrangements of your chosen digits. It costs more but gives you multiple paths to a potential win.
Your potential payout varies based on which play style you select and how your numbers match up with the draw results.
- Set your wager amount
You can play for as little as $0.50 or up to $1.00 per wager. Your bet amount directly affects the prize. For instance, a $1 exact order win pays $5,000, while a $0.50 bet pays $2,500.
- Pick how many draws to enter
You can enter just the upcoming draw or select multiple consecutive draws using the same number and play style if you wish.
Where to play
You can play Daily 4:
- In person at any licensed WV Lottery retailer
- Online through the iPLAY platform
For in-person play, you’ll fill out a play slip to select your numbers and play style. Through iPLAY, everything’s digital, making it easy to track your tickets, draws, and any wins.
