Iowa Lottery Mega Millions – IA Mega Millions

The Iowa Lottery is 1 of 42 US State & District Lotteries that offer the huge Mega Millions game – in this case the Iowa Mega Millions – as part of its overall portfolio of lottery games.

Mega Millions is a Multi-State USA Lottery that is run and operated by the Mega Millions Consortium – who administer and syndicate the game across the USA and is one of the largest lottery games in the world – having produced a massive record jackpot of an incredible US$ 390 Million. This huge world
record jackpot was shared between 2 Mega Millions winners from New Jersey and Georgia.

The very first Mega Millions draw took place on May 17th 2002 with 6
USA Lottery companies taking part who were all members of the Mega Millions Consortium.

The game had changed its name and format from the Big Game which had started on August 31st 1996. Upon this change – 2 further State Lotteries joined and many more were to follow.

Tickets for the Iowa Lottery Mega Millions were first sold on January 31st 2010 when the Multi State Lottery Association (MUSL) who run the Powerball game – of which the IA Lottery is a member – entered into a cross-selling agreement with the Mega Millions consortium – allowing the sales of Mega Millions in Powerball states and Powerball in Mega Millions states.

Iowa Mega Millions – How It Works…

The Iowa Lottery Mega Millions works in exactly the same way as the
Mega Millions works in all the States and Districts in the US that offer the game.

Jackpots start off at US$ 12 Million and ROLLOVER after each draw when the top prize is not won – making for some enormous jackpot figures.

6 numbers are drawn in total for the Iowa Mega Millions from 2 separate drawing machines – firstly 5 numbers from 56 white balls are drawn and then 1 number (the MEGAball) from 46 gold balls.

Draws for the Iowa Lottery Mega Millions take place twice every week on Tuesdays and Fridays at 10.00pm CST (11.00pm EST).

In addition to the 6 main Mega Millions numbers drawn – a further number is drawn – using a Random Number Generator…the MEGAPLIER number…

MEGAPLIER…

This separate MEGAPLIER number drawn will be either 2, 3 or 4 – and is there to give players of the Mega Millions Iowa a chance to increase their winnings on all levels of the prize structure apart from the Iowa MegaMillions jackpot itself.

With MEGAPLIER – you are able to multiply your winnings on these levels by 2x, 3x or 4x – greatly increasing the amount you can walk away with.

If a player matches the 5 main Mega Millions numbers playing with the MEGAPLIER add-on – and a MEGAPLIER number of 4 is drawn – the second tier prize of US$ 250,000 would be quadrupled and they could win US$ 1 Million.

Iowa Mega Millions – How to Play…

The aim when playing is to correctly select as many Mega Millions winning prize numbers as possible – and with 9 different ways in which you can win on the Iowa MegaMillions – you have a great chance of winning a prize.

There are principally – 4 ways in which you can play the IA Mega Millions


1. Pick 5 of your own main (white ball) numbers from 1 to 56 plus 1 Mega Ball (gold ball) number from 1 to 46.

2. Pick 5 of your own main (white ball) numbers from 1 to 56 and use the
Quick Pick option to let the computer choose your Mega Ball (gold ball) number for you from 1 to 46 – using a random number generator.

3. Use the Quick Pick option to let the computer pick your 5 main (white ball) numbers from 1 to 56 using a random number generator – and pick your own Mega Ball (gold ball) number from 1 to 46.

4. Use the Quick Pick option to let the computer choose both your 5 main

If your chosen IA Lottery Mega Millions numbers match the Mega Millions winning numbers on any of these prize levels – you immediately increase your winnings by either 2, 3 or 4 times – depending on what MEGAPLIER number was drawn.

If you play Mega Millions with MEGAPLIER and you are lucky enough to correctly select the 5 main Mega Millions numbers and a MEGAPLIER number of 4 is drawn – the second tier prize of US$ 250,000 will be quadrupled and you could walk away with US$ 1 Million.

An enhancement to the way the MEGAPLIER works took place on September 14th 2010.

This can increase your winnings even further when you play Mega Millions using the
MEGAPLIER option.

Now, if you match all 5 of the main Mega Millions numbers and play using the MEGAPLIER
option – you will win US$ 1 Million no matter what MEGAPLIER number has been drawn.
