Mega Millions Payout Chart

The starting jackpot for the Mega Millions is at least $50 million and has a rollover increase of at least $5 million on each draw until a winning ticket is drawn. There is no cap on the jackpot, which means it can climb up to some amazing amounts! There are nine tiers of prizes, which means that apart from the massive jackpot, there is a great chance of winning one of the smaller prizes as well, depending on how many matching numbers are on your ticket.

There are great odds of winning one of the cash prizes at 1 in 23.07. If you win the jackpot you can opt for the one-time payment of a slightly smaller amount than the jackpot. You could also claim the prize over 29 years with a 5% increase on the annual payout to keep ahead of inflation. There is a wide variety of prizes on offer, from $5 for matching one drawn ball to the second tier prize of $1 million (or $10 million with the largest Multiplier). All of this makes the Mega Millions arguably one of the most exciting lotteries to play in the world!
