A Mega Millions ticket costs $2 per play. If you add the Megaplier option to your ticket, it will cost an extra $1.
Mega Millions was first launched as “The Big Game” in 1996 for $1 a ticket; however, following changes to its format in October 2017, standard Mega Millions entries now cost $2 when purchased from authorized US retailers.
What is the Mega Millions Ticket cost with the Megaplier?
Adding the Megaplier will cost just one dollar and raise your ticket total to $3.00. Still, this additional game feature could increase the second division prize up to $2-5 million, depending on which Megaplier was selected for that draw, and multiply all other prizes two or five times their initial amount.
What are the factors that affect Mega Millions ticket cost?
Not being in the US can affect the cost of playing Mega Millions lottery tickets since travelling there would likely not be necessary! Instead, playing online offers cheaper options than flying there – though your cost per lottery ticket might increase slightly compared to buying in person in America.
Just the Jackpot is only available in certain states, and for $3.00 players can purchase two Mega Millions tickets that only go toward winning the Jackpot, without the chance of any secondary prizes being won.
How much is a Mega Millions ticket when you play online?
Online ticket-buying services such as theLotter will add a service charge to the cost of tickets purchased online, while lottery services like Lottoland collect a commission when you win cash prizes, meaning the advertised price might not always reflect what is happening behind the scenes.
Betting lottery services might provide slightly cheaper tickets, though you do not play official lotto tickets during draws themselves; usually add about $2.00 extra onto original prices when purchasing Mega Millions tickets through betting services like this one.
