HOW TO PLAY
Tickets are priced at US 2 and you can win by matching any 3-5 main draw numbers. You can win a prize if you match the Powerball. The payouts are anywhere from zero to all five main draw numbers.
The jackpot is the most lucrative in the world. To win it, you must match all five main draw numbers as well as the Powerball. This is unlike other lotteries that offer a second chance at winning or a 'bonusball'. Powerball makes it just as important (and perhaps more) as any other number on your ticket.
This is your chance to boost any prizes other than the jackpot and costs only US $1 per ticket. Power Play is drawn by a random generator (RNG). One selection is made out of a pool with 42 balls. Each ball has a multiplier value: 24 marked 2x and 13 marked 3x. Three marked 4x, three marked 5x, two marked 4x, and three marked 5x. A single 10x multiplier is also added to the draw if it is below US 150 million.
If you win the non-jackpot prize and choose the Power Play option, your prize will increase according to the multiple drawn. It can go up to a remarkable 10x. Only exception is if you match five numbers. In that case, the prize will be increased to US $2 million.
Rule Changes
Powerball game rules were changed on October 4, 2015. The October 7th draw was affected by the changes. These changes decreased the chances that you will win the jackpot, but increased your chances of winning other prizes. The table below shows. The Powerball jackpot grew faster and more than before the October 7th 2015 draw.
State Variations
Each state has its own rules and regulations. The time it takes to claim your prize could vary depending on where your ticket was purchased. The closing time for ticket sales varies from one state to the next. Officially, the closing time for ticket sales can vary between states. It could be as long as an hour before the draw takes places. California's prize payouts are parimutuel. This means that the prize amount will depend on the number and sales of tickets (this excludes the national jackpot, which is the same). To make it clear, game play in each state is the exact same.
Online play is the best way to make sure you don't miss the cut-off deadline for ticket sales. It is less likely you will miss the expiration dates for any claims. Additionally, the messenger service will notify your by email or phone if you have won.
Play Online

Canadians can take part in the Powerball lottery online using an online lottery site - an innovative phenomenon that allows players to play many different lottery games from their home country.
