New Mega Millions® Game Debuts April 5

New game enhancements mean larger million dollar wins in Minnesota

ROSEVILLE, Minn. (April 4, 2025) — Mega Millions® is stepping up its game this week with bigger wins with a built-in multiplier feature and higher starting jackpots. The last drawing under the current matrix and prize structure is Friday, April 4. Beginning Saturday, April 5, Minnesota players will be able to play for:

Built-in multiplier – Every play on a ticket automatically includes a built-in multiplier (2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X) so there will be bigger wins in Minnesota at all non-jackpot prize levels. Prizes in the new game will range from $10 to $10 million vs. the $2 to $1 million in the current game.
No more break-even prizes – Prizes start at $10 — double the cost of the $5 ticket.
Higher starting jackpots – Following a jackpot win, the starting jackpot will reset to $50 million instead of the current $20 million.
Improved overall odds – Overall odds to win any prize will improve to 1 in 23 from 1 in 24 due to the removal of one gold Mega Ball from the game.
Improved odds to win the jackpot – Odds to win the jackpot will improve to 1 in 290,472,336 from 1 in 302,575,350.

With higher value prizes embedded throughout every tier of the game, tickets for the new Mega Millions game will increase from $2 to $5 per play. A full prize matrix is available here.

“Higher average jackpots with faster rolls will help create more excitement here in Minnesota,” said Adam Prock, Minnesota Lottery Executive Director. “Players can win up to $10 million before they hit the jackpot, which means we’ll have more potential millionaires right here in Minnesota!”

Minnesota began selling Mega Millions in January of 2010. The game has created many new millionaires in Minnesota since then, including 19 $1 million winners and one $2 million winner. Minnesota had its first and only jackpot winner in April of 2022. A lucky couple won a $110 million jackpot and selected the $66.9 million cash option. Their winning ticket was purchased at a Holiday Stationstore in Ramsey.

“Beyond big jackpots, players told us they want bigger non-jackpot prizes and that’s exactly what this new game delivers,” said Joshua Johnston, Lead Director of the Mega Millions Consortium. “Players who had won $2 in the old game will now take home $10, $15, $20, $25 or $50 under this game. Those who had won $500 under the old rules will now take home $1,000; $1,500; $2,000; $2,500 or $5,000 in this new game. Non-jackpot prizes at every level are going up by 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X. That’s the kind of value the new Mega Millions will deliver to our players at every single drawing.”

As part of the new game introduction, the “Megaplier” add on feature that was available for an additional $1 will be retired and replaced with the built-in multiplier.

Unless someone wins the jackpot on the April 4, 2025 drawing, the jackpot from the current game will roll into the new game and continue to grow with ticket sales from the new game. Players who have a winning ticket that was issued for a drawing prior to the game change and who claim their prize within the one-year deadline, will be paid based on the prize matrix in effect during the time of the drawing for their ticket, regardless of when the prize is claimed.

About Mega Millions

Mega Millions is a national game with tickets sold in 45 states, Washington, D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Drawings are conducted at 11 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesdays and Fridays in Atlanta, Georgia. Lottery profits support a wide variety of good causes and are allocated differently in each jurisdiction.

March is Problem Gambling Awareness Month

Contact:
Susan Sheridan Tucker
sstucker@mnapg.org
612-424-8595 x1

Roseville, Minn. (March 3, 2025) - The Minnesota Alliance for Problem Gambling (MNAPG) and the Minnesota Lottery in partnership with the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) is proud to recognize March as Problem Gambling Awareness Month (PGAM).

This year’s theme, “Seeking Understanding,” focuses on increasing awareness of problem gambling as a serious but often misunderstood mental health condition. The campaign seeks to foster greater awareness and empathy, break down barriers to treatment, and provide support for individuals and families impacted by gambling-related harm.

Problem gambling, defined as gambling behaviors that disrupt or damage personal, family, or professional lives, affects millions of Americans. Nationally, approximately 2.5 million U.S. adults meet the criteria for a severe gambling problem, with an additional 5-8 million individuals experiencing mild to moderate gambling problems. In Minnesota 250,000 adults and 6,000 high school students indicate problems with gambling.

The annual observance of Problem Gambling Awareness Month provides an essential platform for organizations across the country to highlight the availability of resources that support problem gambling prevention, education, treatment, and recovery.

Throughout March the Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling will host various activities to educate the community and spark meaningful conversations around problem gambling. Planned events include:

Increase public awareness through a new public service announcement “The Elephant in the Room”
Present at Anoka Ramsey County Community College on March 6
Host an open house at Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling offices at 1935 County Road B2 West in Roseville on March 20 at 1-3 p.m.
Exhibit and present at the Minnesota Social Service Association Annual Conference on March 28

“During March, we highlight specific issues relating to problem gambling - the need for health professionals to screen for this addiction, informing the public of free services available to those affected and promote safer gambling messages as excitement builds for the annual college basketball tournament,” said Susan Sheridan Tucker of Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling. “Many Minnesotans still lack an understanding of problem gambling and the impact it has on family and friends. For every one gambler with an issue, 8-10 others are negatively impacted. Drawing attention to this addiction in March particularly around a well-loved national sporting event helps to increase awareness.”

“We’re proud to partner with the Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling to raise awareness about problem gambling,” said Minnesota Lottery Executive Director Adam Prock. “We want to make sure that if you, a family member or friend need help, there are gambling resources available through the Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling funded by the Minnesota Department of Human Services. Treatment is available free of charge for qualifying individuals, and their families, throughout Minnesota.”

Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling encourages local media and community organizations to join this important conversation by sharing information and highlighting available resources.

For more information about problem gambling and how to increase awareness of problem gambling, visit www.ncpgambling.org/FAQs and www.mnapg.org.

If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, call or text the Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling at 1-800-333-HOPE (4673) or text “HOPE” to 53342. Help is available 24/7/365 – it is free and confidential.

Two $1 Million Raffle Prizes Claimed on First Business Day after Winning Numbers Reveal

Roseville, Minn. (Jan. 3, 2025) – The two $1 million winners in the Minnesota Millionaire Raffle claimed their prizes on Jan. 2.

While both prizes were claimed anonymously, the winners did agree to share part of their stories.

The $1 million winning ticket purchased at Bill’s Superette #11 in Nowthen was claimed by a first-time Raffle player. “My grandma told me to play, and she always has good advice,” he said. While he was working in the area, he and his co-workers stopped at the store to get some Raffle tickets before they sold out. “I was the last one in line!” he said. The first-time Raffle player discovered his big win on New Year’s Day and one of the first calls he made was to his grandma. “She thought I was pulling her leg!” he said. He’s looking forward to “paying off his mortgage, investing and seeing what happens with the rest.”

The $1 million winning ticket that was sold at Casey’s General Store in Tracy was also claimed. The winner said he went to Casey’s last November to redeem a $30 winner from Progressive Print-N-Play, but when he noticed there was less than twenty-five percent of tickets remaining in the Raffle, he bought three $10 Raffle tickets instead. He checked his ticket on the lottery app on New Year’s Day. “I was curious how the app would handle this, and it did not disappoint,” he said, after receiving the $1 million winner message. He summed up his win, saying, “This is perfect.”

“Our lottery team and retailers are thrilled for the two $1 million winners who claimed their prizes from the Minnesota Millionaire Raffle,” said Adam Prock, lottery executive director. “It’s a great way to kick off the new year. We look forward to offering fun games for players and continuing to raise money for programs that positively impact the lives of Minnesotans.”

More than 15,000 additional winning numbers were also announced on New Year’s Day, including five $100,000 prizes, five $50,000 prizes and five $25,000 prizes. A complete list of winning numbers can be found at mnlottery.com.

One-third of all 15,677 Raffle prizes have already been claimed so far, including two $100,000 prizes, one $50,000 prize and two $25,000 prizes.

A total of 800,000 Minnesota Millionaire Raffle tickets went on sale Oct. 22, 2024, and sold out in a record 15 days on Nov. 5, 2024. This was the fastest sellout ever in the Minnesota Lottery’s history.

The Minnesota Millionaire Raffle which began in 2006 has become an annual tradition for many Minnesotans. Learn more from players about why they enjoy this popular game only played in Minnesota: MN Raffle Winners: 19 Stories for 19 Years - The Minnesota Lottery.

The Minnesota Alliance for Problem Gambling and the Minnesota Lottery Join 2024 Gift Responsibly Campaign to Raise Awareness of Youth Gambling Risks

Campaign seeks to amplify how early exposure of gambling can increase one’s likelihood of a gambling addiction

Gift Responsibly. Lottery tickets aren't child's play.

Susan Sheridan Tucker

612-424-8595 x1

ROSEVILLE, Minn. (Nov. 27, 2024) —  The Minnesota Alliance for Problem Gambling (MNAPG) and the Minnesota Lottery announce their continued participation in the 2024 Gift Responsibly Campaign, an international responsible gambling campaign to raise awareness about the risks of underage lottery use. The campaign, organized by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) and the International Center for Youth Gambling Problems and High-Risk Behaviors at McGill University, unites lotteries and community organizations from across the nation and world. During November and December, MNAPG and the Minnesota Lottery will promote the campaign through public service announcements, social media content and press outreach.

At this gift-giving time of year, lottery scratch off tickets are a popular and easy gift to slip into a present or stocking. Holiday lottery tickets are designed to be festive, with bright colors and create fun and competition among family members who receive them. Research shows that the earlier a person’s participation or exposure to gambling in childhood, the more likely they are to develop a gambling problem later in life. Gambling addictions run in families and can often co-occur with other addictions such as alcohol, substance misuse and/or gaming addiction. Often these items are given to a child by an adult who is unaware of the associated risks.

“Many adults might not know the risks of gifting a scratch-off or lottery ticket to children or allowing them to play,” said Susan Sheridan Tucker, MNAPG Executive Director and NCPG Board of Directors President. “Yet it’s a risky activity for kids and teens. Approximately 10-14 percent of adolescents are at-risk for developing a problem with gambling. In Minnesota that translates to over 6,000 high school students, according to the 2022 Minnesota Student Survey.”

“We’re proud to partner with the Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling to raise awareness on the risks of youth gambling,” said Adam Prock, Minnesota Lottery Executive Director. “The message is simple — lottery tickets are not appropriate gifts for children. Lottery products are designed specifically for adults. We encourage Minnesota adults who do play to make and model safe, responsible choices.”

“The potential long-term risks associated with underage gambling exposure cannot be understated,” said Keith Whyte, NCPG Executive Director. “I commend MNAPG and the Minnesota Lottery for their commitment to raising awareness about the risks of youth gambling. Now, more than ever, we must continue to insist that lottery tickets are never appropriate gifts for children.”

Minnesotans can learn more about the Gift Responsibly campaign on MNAPG.org, where they can find information about warning signs and tips for addressing youth gambling. School groups, businesses and local organizations can also build their knowledge of gambling addiction and at-risk gambling by requesting a presentation or receiving a variety of resources available, including MNAPG’s high school toolkit on problem gambling and gaming, all at no cost.

Minnesota Lottery Reaches $4 Billion Milestone of Delivering Funds to Programs That Positively Impact the Lives of Minnesotans

ROSEVILLE, Minn. (Oct. 30, 2024) — The Minnesota Lottery delivered a big win for Minnesotans during its latest fiscal year (July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024) by reaching a milestone of $4 billion returned to the state that helps expand outdoor recreational activities, support local agriculture, restore wildlife habitats and protect water quality across the state.

In fiscal year 2024 a record payout — $196.5 million — was returned to lottery beneficiaries to protect Minnesota’s environment and natural resources and support vital state services serving each of Minnesota’s 87 counties.

“After more than 30 years in operation, the future remains bright for the Minnesota Lottery,” said Adam Prock, Minnesota Lottery Executive Director. “Thanks to the hard work of our staff, the dedication of our retail partners, and the commitment of our players, we have been able to send more than $4 billion back to the state to support projects and programs that benefit all Minnesotans.”

In fiscal year 2024 players cashed in on $476.4 million in prizes. Lottery sales reached $775.7 million, the third highest total in the lottery’s 34-year history, with scratch games taking the lead at $524.9 million. Five record-setting jackpot runs fueled Minnesota’s highest lotto game sales to date.

A higher profit margin on lotto tickets contributed to a record return of $196.5 million for Minnesota’s important beneficiaries:

$101.7 million to the General Fund, which supports education, public safety and health and human services.
$93.3 million toward programs dedicated to the protection and preservation of Minnesota’s environment and natural resources:
- Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund, $50.7 million
- Game and Fish Fund, $20.5 million
- Natural Resources Fund, $22.1 million
$1.5 million for programs to help prevent and treat problem gambling.

The lottery’s success wouldn’t be possible without more than 3,000 hard-working retail partners located throughout Minnesota. Retailers earned $51.1 million in commissions and incentives, an average of $16,950 per business.

Other highlights of the fiscal year include the launch of the lottery’s first ever mobile convenience app which allows players to conveniently scan the back of their tickets to see if they’ve won a prize, enter 2nd Chance drawings, and create digital play slips.

Minnesota also had back-to-back Lotto America jackpot winners in fiscal year 2024: a Minnesota man claimed a $3.73 million jackpot in March and a Minnesota mom of two claimed a $3.1 million jackpot the following month in April. Minnesota’s own Gopher 5 jackpot game had its largest winner to date – a $2,045,590 jackpot that was won in Baxter.

ROSEVILLE, Minn. (April 30, 2024) — A Minnesota mom of two claimed a $3.1 million Lotto America jackpot on April 30.

The lucky mom bought one Lotto America ticket for the April 24 drawing using family birthdates that her mom had talked about during a recent video chat. The jackpot winner discovered that her family birthdates were even more special after she matched all six winning numbers (7-12-17-22-52 and the Star Ball of 3) to hit the jackpot.

“I’m so happy,” she said after discovering her win on April 29. “I couldn’t believe it — I’ve never seen so many zeros before!” When her husband arrived home that day, he said he thought something bad happened because she was crying so hard.

The jackpot winner says the first thing she’s going to do is buy a plane ticket to visit her mom, who lives in Southeast Asia. “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen her,” she explained. “I’m looking forward to flying back home. I’ve got a big family that I haven’t seen in more than a decade.” The jackpot winner was very emotional talking about her upcoming reunion and added that it’s important to, “Always listen to your mom!”

In Minnesota, jackpot winners are automatically anonymous. While the lucky jackpot winner claimed her prize anonymously, she agreed to share part of her story.

Cub Foods in Coon Rapids (South) is located at 2050 Northdale Blvd. The big win earned the business a $10,000 bonus.

This was the second Lotto America jackpot win in Minnesota so far this year. Just last month, a lucky Minnesota player claimed a $3.73 million Lotto America jackpot on a ticket he purchased at Cub Foods in Roseville for the March 4 drawing.

Lotto America is a multi-state game offered in 13 states. Tickets cost $1 and jackpots start at $2 million. Drawings are held Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays at 9:20 p.m. Tickets must be purchased by 9 p.m. on drawing days.

No Joke – Powerball jackpot reaches $1 billion on April Fools’ Day

Johnston, IA (Apr. 1, 2024) – The Powerball® jackpot has officially reached the one-billion-dollar mark! The Powerball jackpot is now estimated at $1 billion for tonight’s drawing. The jackpot has an estimated cash value of $483.8 million.

This is only the fifth advertised Powerball jackpot to reach $1 billion. The prize ranks as Powerball’s fifth-largest jackpot overall and the largest advertised jackpot, so far, this year.

“This is no April Fools’ Day joke, we have an advertised Powerball jackpot that’s hit $1 billion to kick off the month of April,” said Drew Svitko, Powerball Product Group Chair and Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director. “This is an exciting time to play Powerball. Whether you’re a frequent or new player, please remember to keep the game fun by playing responsibly. It only takes one ticket to win.”

Ticket sales cut-off times vary by jurisdiction, but typically occur 1-2 hours before the scheduled draw time of 10:50 p.m. EST.

If a player wins the jackpot in tonight’s drawing, they will have the choice between an annuitized prize worth an estimated $1 billion or a lump sum payment estimated at $483.8 million. Both prize options are before taxes. If the winner selects the annuity option, they will receive one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments that increase by 5-percent each year.

The Powerball jackpot was last won on Jan. 1, 2024, by a ticket in Michigan that won a prize worth $842.4 million. Since then, there have been 38 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner. Tonight’s drawing will be the 39th drawing in the jackpot run.

The Powerball jackpot last rolled Saturday night after no ticket matched all six numbers drawn – white balls 12, 13, 33, 50, 52 and red Powerball 23. The Power Play® multiplier was 3X.

Despite there being no jackpot winner, more than 2.3 million tickets won cash prizes in last night’s drawing. Four tickets matched all five white balls and won $1 million prizes. The $1 million-winning tickets were sold in Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. Nationwide, there were also 55 tickets that won $50,000 prizes and 11 tickets that won $150,000 prizes.

In the Double Play® drawing, a ticket in Michigan matched all five black balls drawn and won a $500,000 prize. The winning Double Play numbers were black balls 20, 29, 43, 57, 63 and Powerball 16. Double Play is an add-on feature that gives players in select jurisdictions another chance to match their Powerball numbers in a separate drawing with a top cash prize of $10 million. Players can add the Double Play feature to their Powerball ticket for an additional $1 per play. Double Play drawings are held after Powerball drawings every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.

Powerball tickets are $2 per play. Tickets are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. More than half of all proceeds from the sale of a Powerball ticket remain in the jurisdiction where the ticket was sold. Powerball drawings are broadcast live every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday from the Florida Lottery draw studio in Tallahassee. Powerball drawings are also live streamed on Powerball.com.

The overall odds of winning a prize are 1 in 24.9. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.

Minnesota man claims $3.73 million Lotto America jackpot

ROSEVILLE, Minn. (March 6, 2024) — A Minnesota man turned a $2 Lotto America win into a $3.73 million jackpot in the March 4 drawing.

The lucky jackpot winner won $2 playing Lotto America during a recent trip to Cub Foods in Roseville so he decided to buy two more tickets. This time around, he won a lot more than he could have ever imagined when one of his tickets matched all six winning numbers to hit a $3.73 million jackpot.

“I was in disbelief,” he recalled after checking his ticket on mnlottery.com Tuesday morning. “I double checked the numbers, and then I texted my friend, and said, ‘Call me.’”

“I told them not to tell anybody, but you know how that goes,” he said with a laugh as he presented his winning ticket for payment at lottery headquarters in Roseville on March 5. He came back the next day to select the $1.78 million cash option and officially claimed the prize.

He said he’s looking forward to paying off his mortgage and being debt free. “I will probably buy a new car, too,” he said.

In Minnesota, jackpot winners are automatically anonymous. While the lucky jackpot winner claimed his prize anonymously, he agreed to share part of his story.

He went on to say that Lotto America is his game of choice. “If I play the lottery, it’s Lotto America,” he explained. “It’s cheaper — tickets are only a buck and I have a better chance to win.” The odds of winning the jackpot are still a long shot — approximately 1 in 25.9 million.

Cub Foods in Roseville, located at 2100 N. Snelling Ave, earned a $10,000 bonus for selling the jackpot-winning ticket.

This was the third time Minnesota had a jackpot winner since the game launched in 2017. The first Lotto America jackpot was won in Minnesota on March 14, 2018 — the $22.8 million winning ticket was purchased at a Holiday Stationstore in Roseau. The second Lotto America jackpot, worth $21.6 million, was sold at Holiday Stationstore #395 in Ramsey on July 10, 2019.

Lotto America is a multi-state game offered in 13 states. Tickets cost $1 and jackpots start at $2 million. Drawings are held Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays at 9:20 p.m. Tickets must be purchased by 9 p.m. on drawing days.

The Minnesota Alliance for Problem Gambling and the Minnesota Lottery Join 2023 Gift Responsibly Campaign to Raise Awareness of Youth Gambling Risks

Campaign seeks to amplify how early exposure of gambling can increase one’s likelihood of a gambling addiction

CONTACT:
Susan Sheridan Tucker
sstucker@mnapg.org
612-424-8595 x1

Roseville (NOV. 29, 2023) – The Minnesota Alliance for Problem Gambling and the Minnesota State Lottery today announced their continued participation in the 2023 Gift Responsibly Campaign, an international responsible gambling campaign to raise awareness about the risks of underage lottery use. The campaign, organized by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) and the International Center for Youth Gambling Problems and High-Risk Behaviors at McGill University, unites lotteries and community organizations from across the nation and world.

Research shows that the earlier a person’s participation or exposure to gambling is in childhood, the more likely they are to develop a gambling problem later in life. Gambling exposure during childhood is often through some kind of lottery product, such as lottery tickets or scratch offs. Often these items are given to a child by an adult who is unaware of the associated risks.

In Minnesota, gambling is surging among minors; the 2022 Minnesota Student Survey found that over 6,000 high schoolers indicated having issues with gambling and that online use has increased since 2019. All gambling in Minnesota is for individuals 18 and older.

During November and December, MNAPG and the Minnesota Lottery will promote the campaign through public service announcements, social media content and press outreach.“

Many adults might not consider the risks of gifting a scratch-off or lottery ticket to children or allowing them to play,” says MNAPG Executive Director and NCPG Board of Directors President Susan Sheridan Tucker. “Yet it’s a dangerous activity for kids and teens. Gambling revs up the brain’s reward hub and primes the body to seek greater thrills over time. Growing minds can’t fully weigh these risks and decisions.”

“We’re pleased to partner with the Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling to elevate the risks of youth gambling,” says Minnesota Lottery Executive Director Adam Prock. “Lottery products are designed specifically for adults. We encourage Minnesota adults who do play to make and model safe, responsible choices.”

“The potential long-term risks associated with underage gambling exposure cannot be understated,” said NCPG Executive Director Keith Whyte. “I commend MNAPG and the Minnesota Lottery for their commitment to raising awareness about the risks of youth gambling. Now, more than ever, we must continue to insist that lottery tickets are never appropriate gifts for children.”

Minnesotans can learn more about the Gift Responsibly campaign on MNAPG.org, where they can find information about warning signs and tips for addressing youth gambling. School groups, businesses and local organizations can also build their knowledge of gambling addiction and at-risk gambling by participating in MNAPG’s free Community Outreach presentations.
