About Powerball
ALL ABOUT POWERBALL
The Powerball jackpot starts at $20 million and grows until it's won, often reaching hundreds of millions of dollars. To play, you choose five numbers from 1–69 plus one Powerball number from 1–26. Match all six numbers to win the jackpot!
Odds and Payouts
There are nine prize tiers, starting from $4 for matching just the Powerball to the jackpot for matching all five white balls plus the Powerball. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292,201,338, making it one of the toughest but most rewarding lottery games.
Draw Times
Powerball drawings take place three times a week — every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET.
Power Play Option
For an additional $1 per play, you can add the Power Play feature. This multiplies non-jackpot prizes by 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, or even 10x, giving you more ways to boost your winnings.
