¿Quién merece ser millonario? (English translation: Who deserves to be a millionaire?) is a Chilean game show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, shown on the Chilean television network Canal 13. The show was initially hosted by Don Francisco from 2006 to 2008, then by Sergio Lagos from 2008 to 2010. ¿Quién merece ser millonario? was broadcast from 2006 to 2010.

The main goal of the game is to win 120 million Chilean pesos by answering 15 multiple-choice questions correctly. There are four lifelines: "Fifty-Fifty" (50 y 50), "Phone a Friend" (llamado telefónico), "Ask The Audience" (La Votación del Público) and "Switch the Question" (previously "Three Of The Audience" (los 3 del público), where a contestant can ask three people from audience who claim that they know the correct answer). When a contestant got the fifth question correct, he/she will leave with a minimum of CL$250,000. When a contestant got the tenth question correct, he/she left with at least CL$3,200,000. There are only 6 contestants in the preliminary "Fastest Finger First" round.
