Mega Millions is an U.S. popular lottery game can be played in 44 participating states as a shared jackpot game. It holds the record highest jackpot in United States lottery history. Mega Millions drawings are held 2 times a week every Tuesday and Friday night at 7:59 PM Pacific Time. Each play costs $1. In some states, players can choose to pay 1 extra dollar to purchase the Megaplier, which multiplies the original prizes 2 to 5 times except grand prize. The minimum Mega Millions grand prize starts at $40 million. The annuity option is paid in 30 equal yearly payments. Winners can choose one time lump-sum cash payout option instead.
Contrary to other Mega Millions participants, all the 9 prize levels of California Mega Millions are parimutuel, instead of non-jackpot prize having a set amount. This results in different amounts of prize for equivalent winners sold in the state of California when compared to those sold in other 43 states. One example is, the 2nd Mega Millions prizes is a million dollar could pay the winner over $1000,000 due to the pari-mutuel payout system of California lottery. For the same reason, California state lottery doesn't offer Megaplier like other Mega Millions states.
