More about Powerball

Powerball is the largest lottery game in America.

In April, Powerball celebrated its 33rd year in existence. The game is available in 45 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Players must match five white balls and a red Powerball to win. The game has some of the highest jackpots in history, including a record-breaking $2.1 billion, which was also won in California.

Tickets cost $2 per play. A Power Play option is available for an extra dollar, and it multiplies any winnings. For another $1, players can participate in a separate drawing called Double Play, which takes place directly after Powerball drawings.

Since its inception in 1992, Powerball has raised more than $36 billion for causes across the country. Matt Strawn, Iowa Lottery CEO and Powerball Product Group Chair, stated:

Powerball's impact can be found everywhere the game is sold. Powerball proceeds are improving the communities where our players live and work – whether it's support for veterans in Iowa, college scholarships in Tennessee, new trails and parks in Colorado, or low-cost prescription assistance for seniors in Pennsylvania.
