How to Play Powerball

For those looking to try their luck, a Powerball ticket costs $2. You can purchase tickets in-store or online in participating states. Consider adding the Power Play option for just $1 extra. This feature can multiply non-jackpot prizes by 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, or even 10x! However, the 10x multiplier is only available when the advertised jackpot annuity is $150 million or less.

Double Play: A Second Chance to Win

Want another shot at winning? Add the Double Play feature for an additional $1 per play. This enters your numbers into a second drawing immediately following the regular Powerball drawing, offering a chance to win prizes up to $10,000,000. Keep in mind that the Power Play multiplier does not apply to prizes won in the Double Play drawing.
