How To Play

Leave it all up to luck and ask for a Powerball quick pick or choose your own numbers. Pick five numbers from 1–69 and one Powerball number from 1–26. 

There are nine ways to win, starting with $4 for matching just the Powerball. Match the first five numbers plus the Powerball to win the jackpot.

Jackpots start at $20 million and keep growing until someone wins. Jackpot winners may choose to receive their prize as an annuity, paid in 30 graduated payments over 29 years, or a lump-sum payment.

The cost is $2 per play. For an additional $1 per play, the Power Play® feature can multiply non-jackpot prizes by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 times! The multiplier number is randomly selected just before each drawing. The 10X multiplier is only in play when the advertised jackpot annuity is $150 million or less. The Match 5 prize with Power Play is always $2 million.

Multi-draw Tickets: You can purchase a ticket good for up to 14 draws at your favorite retailer. If you choose to play more than one draw, your ticket will include a drawing date range instead of a single drawing date.
