It holds the record largest jackpot of $656 million in United States lottery history. Each play costs $1.

The odds of matching 6 Mega Millions numbers are 1 to 302,575,350. The minimum Mega Millions advertised jackpot starts at $40,000,000. Its annuity option is paid in 30 equal yearly payments. Winners can choose one time lump sum cash payout instead.
Unlike other Mega Millions participants, all the 9 prize levels of California Mega Millions are pari-mutuel, as opposed to non-jackpot prize having a set value.
