If you’ve been unable to win the jackpot, you can choose a prize of up to $2 million. If you’re not lucky enough to win the jackpot, you can still win a prize of up to $1 million with the Megaplier feature. There are two ways to play the Megamillions lottery. You can choose your numbers yourself or purchase tickets at retail stores and use a Megaplier. The jackpot prize is worth $310 million. The other way to play is by purchasing a ticket with a Megaplier option. This feature increases your chances of winning non-jackpot prizes by one, two, three, or four times.
If you do win the jackpot, you can choose to receive payments in annual installments, rather than cash. You can choose to receive your payouts by credit card or by check. You can play with a Megaplier for an additional $1. There are different prize payouts for each non-jackpot ticket. You can check the prize amounts below to determine if you’re a winner. The next MegaMillions drawing will take place on the following Tuesday or Friday at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time. You may purchase your ticket until ten minutes before the draw starts.

In order to win the jackpot, you’ll need to match five numbers with the Mega Ball. The jackpot is worth $473 million, which is the largest amount available in one drawing.
