Mega Millions is a consortium of 44 state lotteries. It holds the record biggest jackpot in U.S. lottery history. Approximately 50% of the Mega Millions sales goes back to the players in prize winnings. Roughly 15% goes to commission of retailers and lottery operating costs. Approximately 35% total sales is used in government services, education and charities in the member states. Mega Millions drawings occur 2 times a week every Tuesday and Friday at 7:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Mega Millions lottery uses a 5/70+1/25 matrix to randomly pick winning numbers. Each play costs $1. In some states, players can choose to pay $1 extra to buy the Megaplier, which multiplies the original prizes 2 to 5 times but not jackpot. The odds of winning any prizes is about 1 to 14. The odds of matching all six Mega Millions numbers are 1 to 302,575,350. The minimum Mega Millions advertised jackpot starts at 40 million dollar. Its annuity option is paid in 30 equal yearly installments. Winners can select one-time lump-sum cash payout instead.
Unlike other Mega Millions participants, all the nine prize levels of California Mega Millions are parimutuel, instead of non-jackpot prize having a set value. This leads to different amounts of prize for equivalent winning tickets sold in the state of California when compared to those sold in other Mega Millions states. For instance, the 2nd Mega Millions prizes is $1,000,000 could pay the winner over $1000,000 due to the pari-mutuel payout system of California lottery.
