The EuroMillions draw happened on Monday, May 13, and while no one hit the full jackpot, someone in the UK still walked away with a life-changing win — £1 million, to be exact. It’s from the UK Millionaire Maker raffle. The code? MCPZ71386. So if you bought a ticket for that day, it might be worth digging it out and giving it a proper check.
Let’s go over everything you need to know, just in case you’re holding onto a golden piece of paper and don’t even know it yet.
Winning Numbers for May 13 — Did You Match Any?
Alright, for those keeping track of the main draw numbers, here’s what was pulled on May 13:
-
Main numbers: 4, 21, 22, 34, 48
-
Lucky Stars: 3 and 11
Nobody actually won the full jackpot this time around, but there were still a bunch of people across Europe who matched parts of it and won pretty solid prizes. So even if you didn’t win the £1 million raffle, it’s worth checking if you got a chunk of the main prize pool.
Millionaire Maker Code – Here’s What You Need to Know
Each ticket purchased in the UK is automatically entered into what's known as the Millionaire Maker. It’s like a bonus raffle, and this time, it made someone a millionaire overnight. The winning code is MCPZ71386. If that’s on your ticket, you just got seriously lucky.
Here’s what you should do if your ticket has that code:
-
First, sign the back of it. That way, no one else can claim it.
-
Then call the National Lottery’s claim line.
-
Have your ID and bank info ready.
-
Try not to freak out. This is actually happening.
You have up to 180 days from the date of the draw to claim your prize.
Think You Might Be the Winner? Here’s a Quick Checklist
Still not sure if you could be the one? Let’s run through it:
-
You purchased your EuroMillions ticket within the UK.
-
It was for the May 13 draw.
-
Your ticket shows the Millionaire Maker code: MCPZ71386.
-
You haven’t already claimed the prize.
If all of that lines up, well… it’s time to seriously check that ticket. Don’t let this slip by.
Mistakes People Make That Could Cost Them Big
It’s kind of shocking how often people win something and never even know. Here are some common mistakes that mess things up:
-
Tossing the ticket without checking the raffle code
-
Only checking the main numbers, not the Millionaire Maker part
-
Waiting too long to claim
-
Not confirming ticket details properly
Double-check everything. And hey, try not to forget your ticket in your jacket pocket for weeks.
What If No One Claims the £1 Million Prize?
If no one steps up to claim the prize within 180 days, the money doesn’t just disappear. It gets used for community projects funded by the National Lottery. That’s great and all… but let’s be honest — you’d probably rather it be in your bank account than funding a park bench somewhere.
Next EuroMillions Draw Is Coming Up Fast
If you missed this one, don’t worry. The next EuroMillions draw is happening on Friday, May 17, and the jackpot is expected to be around £52 million. So yeah, that’s a pretty good reason to grab a ticket (or two).

-
