How to Play Mega Millions?
It pays $2 for each Mega Millions line. Five numbers from 1 to 70 (drawn with white balls) and one number from 1 to 25 (the golden Mega Ball) must be selected from two independent number pools.
The Quick Pick/Easy Pick option is also available. If your bet includes all six of the winning numbers, you win the jackpot!
The jackpot for the next drawing is calculated based on the total number of tickets sold in the previous drawing.
Mega Millions offers nine different chances to win, from the jackpot to a return on your ticket price. This can be accomplished by adding extra game options, such as Power Play, which raises the price of the ticket to $3.
If the ball you pick is the winning one, your payout will be multiplied by the number of times that ball appears, up to a maximum of ten times. Alternate game modes can be selected for an additional fee.
Tickets purchased online are more expensive than those purchased at a physical location, but purchasers benefit from being able to take part in the event from anywhere in the world.
