Firstly, let's take a look at the key features of each:

Easy 6

The Easy 6 is a lottery game where players choose 6 numbers from 1 to 49. The numbers are drawn randomly, and players win if they match all 6 numbers. The jackpot prize is AED 15,000,000.

There are also other ways to win prizes in Easy 6, even if you don't match all 6 numbers. For example, if you match 5 numbers, you win AED 1,000. And if you match 4 numbers, you win AED 50.

Mega 7

The Mega 7 is a lottery game where players choose 7 numbers from 1 to 49. The numbers are drawn randomly, and players win if they match all 7 numbers. The jackpot prize is AED 100,000,000.
