How to Play
Just follow the steps below to start playing. Players must be age 18 or above to participate. Want some ideas for your numbers? Check out Mega Millions Smartpicks for the top hot and cold numbers.
- Pick five white ball numbers from 1 to 70, and a gold Mega Ball number from 1 to 24. It costs $5 to play. To get started faster, just mark the Quick Pick (QP) box and the lottery computer will generate your numbers (you can select Quick Pick for just the white balls, just the Mega Ball, or both).
- To play your numbers up to 10 times in a row, mark how many draws to enter in the "Multi-Draw" area.
- Choose cash or annuity. If you score the top prize, you can opt for the full amount as an annuity (one initial payment followed by 29 annual installments that increase in value), or the smaller cash option (a single lump sum payment of the amount in the prize pool).
- Purchase your tickets before the draw break at 9:45 pm CT on game nights - ticket sales are paused until after the draw. The draw itself is held at 10:00 pm.
- Are you a MegaMillions winner? Match all six numbers to take home the jackpot. Visit this page after the draw to check your numbers.
Multiplier
Megaplier is an outdated add-on that has since been replaced by the Multiplier. The Multiplier increases the value of any non-jackpot prize you win and is automatically assigned to a ticket you purchase.
If you hit a prize below the jackpot, its value will be multiplied by the Multiplier number. For example, if 10X is drawn, the $2 million second prize becomes $10 million.
Did you know that Megaplier started in the Lone Star State? It proved so popular that all jurisdictions except California offered it. It was replaced with the Multiplier April 5, 2025.
Prizes and Odds of Winning
