Should you find yourself holding the winning ticket, note that while any Florida Lottery retailer can verify your win, claiming the top prize requires a visit to one of the Florida Lottery District Offices. For further assistance or information, winners are encouraged to explore the lottery’s website, use the free mobile app, or contact the Customer Service Department directly at (850) 487-7787.

FANTASY 5 is known for its exciting format, allowing players to win by matching all five numbers drawn in any order. Additionally, there are opportunities to win cash prizes or a free Quick Pick ticket for matching two to four numbers from the draw. Unclaimed top prizes contribute to a roll-down mechanism, benefiting players who match 4-of-5 or 3-of-5 numbers.
