How to Play
- Each play costs $1 for each draw.

You may also ask for an Easy Pick or mark the "EP" box on one or both sections of the play slip and let the Lottery terminal randomly select your numbers for you. You may bet up to 5 plays on a play slip.
- Check the play slip for accuracy and present to a Lottery Retailer for processing. Important: It is the player's responsibility to check the tickets for accuracy prior to leaving the retail location. Please sign your ticket immediately to show ownership.

- Players who mark the Megaplier® box pay an extra $1 for each and every play and/or additional draw, and those who win a prize, except the Jackpot, will receive an amount equal to the prize multiplied by the Megaplier® number selected at a drawing conducted at the time of the regular Mega Millions® drawing. The Megaplier® number will be chosen from a field of 21 numbers according to the following frequency: 12 number 4s, 7 number 3s and 2 number 2s. For example, if you win $250,000 on Mega Millions® and the Megaplier® number drawn is 4, you would win $1,000,000 ($250,000 x 4) if you purchased the Megaplier® feature.
