    There are a total of nine ways to win a prize, from the jackpot up to $2.

    Players can choose six numbers from two separate groups of numbers: five different numbers from the white balls numbered 1-70 and one number from the golden balls numbered 1-25.

    • Five white balls + one gold ball = Jackpot.
    • Five white balls = $1 million.
    • Four white balls + one gold ball = $10,000.
    • Four white balls = $500.
    • Three white balls + one gold ball = $200.
    • Three white balls = $10.
    • Two white balls + one gold ball = $10.

    • One golden ball = $2.

    You can choose your lucky numbers yourself or select Easy Pick or Quick Pick and have the numbers drawn automatically. If you can’t choose, the Mega Millions website has a random number generator.

    What is the Megaplier?

    Most states offer the Megaplier feature, which doubles, triples, quadruples and multiplies non-jackpot prizes.

    It costs $1 extra per play.

    Before each regular Mega Millions drawing, the Megaplier is drawn. From a pool of 15 balls, five are marked “2X,” three are marked “4X,” and one is marked “5X.”
