| How to Play Mega Millions |
|
|
Select 5 out of 56 numbers from the white balls (these can be drawn in any order to win). Then select 1 out of 46 numbers for the Mega Ball. |
|
|
You may use a playslip to select your numbers, or ask for an “EASY PICK “ from the clerk and the computer will select the numbers for you. If you make a mistake on the playslip, mark the “VOID” box and select your numbers on the next panel. |
|
|
Each play is $1, and each panel is a separate play. Add Megaplier for an extra $1 per play for your chance to multiply your winnings up to 4 times. |
|
Play more than one drawing by marking the “DRAWS” box on the playslip for 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 consecutive drawings, or just ask the clerk for a multidraw.
|
|
Tickets may be purchased until 8:59 p.m. the evening of the drawing. Drawings are held on Tuesday and Friday at 10:00 p.m. |
|
|
Jackpots start at $12 million. |
|
|
When a player wins a jackpot they have 60 days from the date of their claim to choose to receive a lump-sum payment or a 26 year annuity. All tickets must be claimed within 180 days of the winning draw date. |

*The match 5 prize (5 of 5 white balls) will be fixed at a minimum of 4X, thus guaranteeing a prize of $1 million for those who purchase the Megaplier option. |
