FAQs

Powerball Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about playing Powerball in USA

How do you play Powerball?

Playing Powerball is straightforward. You'll pick 5 numbers from 1 to 69, then add one Powerball from 1 to 26. Can't decide? Go with Quick Pick and let the terminal choose random numbers for you. Drawings happen Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 22:59:00 ET, and you win by matching numbers to the drawn results. The more you match, the bigger your prize. Match all 5 plus the Powerball, and you've hit the jackpot.

How do I buy Powerball tickets?

Visit any authorized USA Lottery retailer, most convenience stores, gas stations, and grocery stores sell tickets. Tell the clerk you want Powerball, or use a self-service terminal if available. You can pick your own numbers or ask for Quick Pick. Tickets cost $2.00 per play, plus $1.00 if you add Power Play to multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to 10x, or add Double Play for $1 and use the same Powerball numbers in a second draw with fixed prizes up to $10 million. Make sure to buy before the sales cutoff, which is 22:00:00 ET on drawing days. Always check your ticket before leaving the store.

How much does a Powerball ticket cost?

A standard Powerball ticket costs $2.00 per play. Add Power Play for an extra $1.00, bringing your total to $3.00 per play. Power Play multiplies non-jackpot prizes by up to 10x. You can also Add Double Play for $1 and use the same Powerball numbers in a second draw with fixed prizes up to $10 million. Want more chances? Buy multiple plays on one ticket. Most retailers accept cash and debit cards. The minimum purchase is one play.

When are Powerball drawings?

Powerball drawings happen Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 22:59:00 ET. That gives you 3 chances to win each week. Ticket sales close at 22:00:00 ET on drawing nights. If you buy a multi-draw ticket, it'll play the same numbers for consecutive drawings. You can purchase tickets for up to multiple future drawings at once. This is great if you've got lucky numbers you play consistently.

What are the odds of winning Powerball?

The odds of hitting the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292,201,338. That's tough, sure, but you've got 9 ways to win. Matching just the bonus ball offers much better odds at 1 in 38.32.

What is Power Play in Powerball?

Power Play is an optional add-on that costs an extra $1.00 per play. It multiplies your non-jackpot winnings by 2x to 10x. The multiplier number is drawn separately right after the main drawing. Here's the catch: it doesn't multiply the jackpot. But for lower prize tiers, Power Play can significantly boost your winnings, potentially multiplying them by up to 10x. That's a significant boost. You decide whether to add Power Play when buying your ticket. Can't add it later.

Can I play Powerball if I don't live in USA?

Powerball is exclusive to USA. You'll need to be physically present in USA to buy tickets, either at a retail location or through a licensed courier service while you're in-state.

This is a state-specific game with its own unique rules and prize structure. Other states have similar games but different names and formats. Browse all USA lottery games to see what's available.
