How to Play the Mega Millions
To buy a ticket, you can either ask for a “Quick Pick” or an “Easy Pick,” where a computer will generate numbers randomly, or you can pick the numbers yourself. If you’re picking your own numbers, you will need to pick six Mega Millions numbers total: five numbers between 1-70 (the white balls) and the gold Mega Ball number, which is one number between 1-25.
In certain states, for an extra dollar, you may be able to add the “Megaplier,” which multiplies all non-grand prize winnings by a factor of two, three, four or five.
Where to Buy Lottery Tickets
Tickets can be purchased in person at gas stations, convenience stores, and grocery stores. Some airport terminals may also sell lottery tickets.
You can also order tickets online through an official digital lottery courier in select U.S. states and territories. The courier allows you to pick your lottery game and numbers, place your order, see your ticket, and collect your winnings, all using your phone or home computer.
