How to Play

  • Pick up a MEGA MILLIONS® play slip at your favorite West Virginia Lottery Retailer.
  • Each slip has 5 PLAYS (A-E). You may play up to 5 MEGA MILLIONS® plays on each slip. Each PLAY costs $2. Tickets must be purchased by 9:59 p.m., ET, every Tuesday and Friday.
  • Begin with play A. In the top section, mark 5 different numbers from 1 to 70. (DO NOT use red ink.)
  • In the bottom section mark one number from 1 to 25 representing your MEGA BALL® number.
  • You may have the computer randomly select your numbers for you by marking the QUICK PICK circle(s) (QP).
  • You may play your number selections for more than one drawing. Mark the appropriate “Multi-Draw” box for 2, 4, 8, 10, 12 or 24 consecutive drawings.
  • MEGAPLIER Option: This option can increase your winning prize up to FIVE times (Jackpot Prize not eligible). MEGAPLIER costs an additional $1 per MEGA MILLIONS® play. Mark the MEGAPLIER circle on your play slip to select this option for ALL plays on your play slip.
  • NEW!  JUST THE JACKPOT is an option for players who want to play for the jackpot prize only.  Designed for maximum value, you get 2 plays for $3 (Quick Pick, Jackpot ONLY, and excludes Megaplier option)!
