How do I check if my lottery ticket won?

Pick your game, Powerball or Mega Millions, using the game buttons. Type the 5 numbers and bonus ball from your ticket into the entry boxes, then hit Check My Numbers. Matched balls are highlighted and your prize tier is shown.

What information do I need to check my ticket?

You only need the numbers printed on your own ticket: the 5 numbers plus the bonus ball. The tool automatically compares them against our latest verified drawing and shows your matches, your prize tier, and the drawing date.

Does the ticket checker include Power Play or the multiplier?

No, the checker shows base prize amounts only. If you added Powerball Power Play for $1 extra, or your Mega Millions ticket carries a multiplier, your non-jackpot prize could be multiplied. Always confirm any win and the final prize with your official state lottery.
