‘Dupla’ is ONCE’s new active game debuting today, combining social responsibility with commercial viability. The innovative experience features two distinct emotional moments: discovering the prize upon purchase and awaiting the draw results. In 2025, ONCE created 2,800 employment contracts for sellers, all individuals with disabilities.
With this new lottery, ONCE aims to maintain its social investment, to which it dedicates all resources, while bringing greater hope through prizes. In 2025, ONCE distributed over €1.640 billion in prizes throughout Spain.
The new product was presented today in 17 events across all autonomous communities, led by Director General Ángel Sánchez and Deputy General Director of Gaming Patricio Cárceles, who participated in Valencia and Cádiz presentations.
All events featured the first draw at 10:00 hours, with participation from ONCE gaming representatives, vendors, and vendresses.
“Today is important for ONCE. We take another step in innovation, connecting with people, and fulfilling our primary commitment: our social mission,” Sánchez stated.
“Beyond social work, we aim to distribute hope through prizes for our clients, whom we consider collaborators in our social mission,” Cárceles emphasized.
Both leaders thanked citizens for trusting ONCE’s multiplying power of solidarity and noted Spain’s fortune in distributing €1.640 billion through over 21,200 vendors. They announced that 2025 saw 3,000 contracts signed for these professionals, all persons with disabilities, highlighting ONCE’s quality employment generation.
‘Dupla’: One Game, Two Emotions
‘Dupla’ is a simple game that surprises. It offers innovative gaming with two distinct excitement moments: first, at purchase when players discover their potential prize after selecting a number 1 to 15; second, during the draw. Matching numbers wins the boleto’s displayed prize, with consolation prizes for adjacent numbers.
For just one euro, the game offers prizes ranging from consolation refunds to €500 maximum, including amounts of €5, €7, €10, €15, €20, €25, €50, €100, or €500. Each number’s prize is randomly determined at purchase, independent of selection. As a frequent-prize game, approximately one of five boletos wins something.
Draws occur five times daily: 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 17:00, and 21:15 hours.
‘Dupla’s first draw occurred today at 10:00. All draws stream live at www.juegosonce.es. Purchase ‘Dupla’ from over 21,200 ONCE vendors, www.juegosonce.es, or ONCE partner establishments.
Vendors: Sentinels of Hope
Multiple vendors participated in presentations, expressing enthusiasm for ‘Dupla’ helping them “bring joy to my clients,” as emphasized by Izabel Cristina and Beatriz from A Coruña and Madrid events. Both noted: “It’s not about selling, but sharing time with clients.”
