How to play Mega Millions?

There are several ways to win the Mega Millions drawing, but it’s important to know that each set of numbers costs $2. Each ticket contains five numbers and one “Mega Ball” number.

Players can also purchase a “Megaplier” feature for $1 per bet, which officials say can multiply non-jackpot winnings by up to five times.

How to win Mega Millions

There are nine different prize levels in the game, culminating in the jackpot, which is awarded to players who match all five numbers and the Mega Ball number.

If you match the five main numbers without the Mega Ball, you win a whopping $1 million. However, Megaplier players can increase this amount to as much as $5 million.

There is a prize of $2 for guessing the golden “Mega Ball” and a prize of $10 for guessing three correct regular numbers.
