Overview
America’s PowerBall is responsible for more record high payouts than any other lottery in the world, with several exceeding half a billion dollars. The draw takes place three times a week on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evenings in the US, which equates to 04.00am on Tuesday, Thursday’s and Sunday’s this side of the pond. The biggest US PowerBall jackpot of all time was won by Gloria McKenzie from Zephyrillis, Florida, who scooped $590.5m in May 2013. A single line costs just €3.50. You can also select the PowerPlay option for an extra €1, giving you the chance to multiply non jackpot wins by up to 5x.
How do I pick my numbers?
Select five main numbers from a pool of 1-69 and a further ‘PowerBall’ number from 1-26. Should you wish to select the PowerPlay option, simply tick the box marked PowerPlay.
What is the PowerPlay option?
The PowerPlay feature allows you to boost the potential winnings on all non-jackpot prize tiers. Should you win prize tier 2, your winnings will be doubled. If you win at any other non-jackpot prize tier your winnings will be either x2, x3, x4 or x5 depending on the PowerPlay ball that is drawn. If the jackpot is below $150m (€124m) an additional x10 PowerPlay ball is added. It costs €1 to activate the PowerPlay feature.
How do I win the Jackpot?
The jackpot is won by matching all five main numbers and the PowerBall.
How much can I win?
This jackpot is completely uncapped, creating the potential for huge payouts! From time to time we run Boosted Jackpot’s (or Special Jackpot) which is an enhanced jackpot feature on selected lotto betting games. For a limited number of draws, we replace the standard jackpot with a much higher top prize.

Is the payout guaranteed? How do I know?
At Lottoland we can guarantee you will be paid out on your winnings - regardless of the jackpot amount.At Lottoland you bet on the outcome of the official draw. For all intents and purposes you will have the exact same customer experience as if you were playing the official lottery. The key difference is that we take your bet and we pay you if you win. We are able to achieve this in two ways.
For smaller prize tier payments we make the payment directly from the fund we have from the total ticket sales.
In order for us to make the larger prize tier payments we take out insurance policies to cover the eventuality of a Jackpot win or a substantial payout on the Lotto ticket. Part of the Lotto ticket price you pay goes towards the payment of this policy.

Lottery subscriptions will save you time and ensure that you never miss your chance to win that big jackpot. Just select the subscription option prior to purchasing your line to set up your running line/s. You can cancel your subscription at anytime.
