Power Play
For an additional $1 per play, add Power Play to multiply your winnings. With every drawing, a Power Play number will be drawn. The Power Play number drawn is between 2-5, or when jackpots are $150 million or less, the 10X Power Play multiplier is also available to be drawn. If you have purchased Power Play and you win with your Powerball numbers, your prize amount (excluding the jackpot* and the Match 5 prize**) will be multiplied by the Power Play number drawn. Win $2 million** with Match 5 of 5 Power Play prize!
Total ticket cost is the total amount wagered multiplied by the number of drawings selected.
