How to Play Mega Millions Megaplier

Mega Millions Megaplier multiplies the fun of the Mega Millions PA Lottery game, and may multiply your prize! Mark the Megaplier option on the Mega Millions playslip. This will select the Megaplier for all plays on the playslip, and double the cost of the ticket. Before the Mega Millions numbers are drawn, a number between 2 and 5 will be drawn. This is the Megaplier number. If you win a Lottery prize on your Mega Millions ticket (other than the jackpot), you'll receive the Lottery prize amount multiplied by the Megaplier number. Check Lottery results to see how many numbers you match.

Mega Millions is a multi-state lottery game. The set prize amounts listed here are based on the expected number of winning plays sharing in the prize pool. In some cases, these prizes may be paid on a pari-mutuel basis and will be lower than these published prize levels. Refer to the official game rules for a detailed explanation of the pari-mutuel payment. The jackpot prize will be divided equally among all winning plays which correctly match five white balls plus the gold Mega Ball that is drawn. Jackpot winners have 60 days after claiming that prize to choose how to be paid. The jackpot can be awarded as a 30-payment graduated annuity (5% escalation per payment), or in one lump-sum cash payment. By purchasing a Mega Millions ticket, the player agrees to abide by the published Pennsylvania Lottery Rules and Regulations. In the event of a discrepancy, the published Rules and Regulations shall prevail.
