Mega Millions is a consortium involving 44 state lotteries. Mega Millions drawings occur every Tuesday and Friday at 7:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Mega Millions uses a 5/70 (white balls) + 1/25 (Mega Balls) matrix to randomly pick winning numbers. Each play costs $1. In some states, players can choose to spend $1 extra to buy the Megaplier, which multiplies the winnings 2 to 5 times except jackpot. The minimum Mega Millions grand prize is 40 million dollar. Its annuity option is paid in 30 equal yearly installments. Winners may choose one lump sum cash payout option instead.
Contrary to other Mega Millions participants, all the nine prize tiers of California Mega Millions are parimutuel, rather than non-jackpot prize having a fixed value. This causes different amounts of prize for equivalent winning tickets sold in the state of California when compared to those sold in other forty three Mega Millions states. One example is, the 2nd Mega Millions prizes is a million dollar could pay the winner more than a million dollar due to the pari-mutuel payout system of California lottery. For the same reason, CA state lottery doesn't offer Megaplier like other Mega Millions states.
