This page walks you through how digital lottery works on 8400 — from the number formats available and how to read draw results, to buying tickets using MYR from your phone.
In 4D lottery format, players choose a four-digit number between 0000 and 9999. If the chosen number matches any of the winning numbers announced during the draw, the player qualifies for a prize under the corresponding winning category.
Prizes are divided into several tiers: First Prize (exact match), Second Prize, Third Prize, Special Prize, and Consolation. Each tier carries a different multiplier — First Prize has the highest multiplier because it has the lowest probability of winning.
A simple example: If you purchase a ticket with the number 3847 for RM 2 and it wins First Prize with a 3,500× multiplier, your gross return would be RM 7,000. This is a purely illustrative example to help you understand how multipliers work — it is not a guarantee of actual results.
| Category | Example Multiplier | Description |
|---|---|---|
| First Prize | ~3,500× | Exact number match |
| Second Prize | ~2,000× | Second number in the winners list |
| Third Prize | ~1,000× | Third number in the winners list |
| Special Prize | ~180× | 10 additional special numbers |
| Consolation | ~60× | 10 additional consolation numbers |
Multipliers shown are for general illustration only. Exact values depend on the platform and bet type. Check the lottery page for the latest information.
The most popular format in Malaysia. Pick 4 digits from 0000–9999. Draws are typically held three times a week — Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Lock in your chosen numbers for multiple draw sessions at once — no need to re-enter them every time a new draw opens.
For many urban users from Kuala Lumpur and Selangor, Wednesday night is the regular time to check 4D lottery results.

In states like Kedah, Penang, and Perak, the Saturday draw is one of the most anticipated events of the week.
