How do you use the 4D prize calculator?
The 4D prize calculator above shows what your ticket would win at every prize tier. Choose the operator (all three give the same answer), Big or Small, a straight bet or iBox, then enter your four-digit number and your stake in RM. For an iBox, the calculator counts how many orderings your number has and uses the matching per-RM1 row from the tables below. A number with four identical digits, such as 8888, cannot be boxed.
What does a RM1 Big or Small 4D bet pay?
A RM1 4D bet pays a fixed prize for each tier, the same at Magnum, Sports Toto and Da Ma Cai:
| Prize tier | Numbers per draw | Big (per RM1) | Small (per RM1) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | 1 | RM2,500 | RM3,500 |
| 2nd | 1 | RM1,000 | RM2,000 |
| 3rd | 1 | RM500 | RM1,000 |
| Special / Starter | 10 | RM180 | Nothing |
| Consolation | 10 | RM60 | Nothing |

How much does a 4D iBox win per RM1?
A 4D iBox pays the straight prize divided down by the number of orderings your number has. Big iBox, per RM1:
| Orderings | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | Special | Consolation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 24 (e.g. 1928) | RM105 | RM42 | RM21 | RM8 | RM3 |
| 12 (e.g. 1128) | RM209 | RM84 | RM42 | RM15 | RM5 |
| 6 (e.g. 1991) | RM417 | RM167 | RM84 | RM30 | RM10 |
| 4 (e.g. 1999) | RM625 | RM250 | RM125 | RM45 | RM15 |
Small iBox, per RM1 (no Special or Consolation):
| Orderings | 1st | 2nd | 3rd |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24 | RM146 | RM84 | RM42 |
| 12 | RM292 | RM167 | RM84 |
| 6 | RM584 | RM334 | RM167 |
| 4 | RM875 | RM500 | RM250 |

How much do bigger stakes win?
4D prizes grow in step with the stake, since every figure is per RM1 per number per bet type4. Common “X Big X Small” combinations, our arithmetic from the table above:
| Bet | Cost | 1st prize | 2nd prize | 3rd prize | Special | Consolation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Big 1 Small | RM2 | RM6,000 | RM3,000 | RM1,500 | RM180 | RM60 |
| 2 Big 2 Small | RM4 | RM12,000 | RM6,000 | RM3,000 | RM360 | RM120 |
| 5 Big 5 Small | RM10 | RM30,000 | RM15,000 | RM7,500 | RM900 | RM300 |
| 10 Big 10 Small | RM20 | RM60,000 | RM30,000 | RM15,000 | RM1,800 | RM600 |
Larger wins change where you claim. Magnum outlets pay up to RM49,9995 and Da Ma Cai outlets up to RM50,0006; above that you go to an operator office. How to play 4D lists each claim limit.
Do Magnum, Sports Toto and Da Ma Cai pay the same 4D prizes?
Yes, the three operators publish the same Big, Small and iBox figures. We read Magnum’s figures from the prize script behind its own calculator1, Da Ma Cai’s from its How to Play page, and Sports Toto’s from its prize-structure table on 28 October 20263. The names differ: Da Ma Cai calls Special prizes Starter, and each operator has its own name for iBox. The operator comparison shows where they differ.
Are jackpot games in this 4D prize table?
Jackpot games are not in this 4D prize table, because they pay different, partly variable prizes and the calculator leaves them out. Magnum’s 4D Jackpot costs RM2 per play and pays fixed RM168, RM68 and RM28 for its lower tiers7, while the jackpot amounts themselves vary. Da Ma Cai’s 1+3D Jackpot costs RM2 per pair of numbers2, and its Super 1+3D uses its own, higher fixed prizes8.
Is it worth checking the prize before you play?
Knowing the prize before you play helps you see how a stake turns into a payout, not how likely a win is. The figures above say nothing about your chances. See Big vs Small for how the two bets compare, the 4D lottery guide for the basics, and our responsible gambling page if you want to set limits.
