It’s the start of a new week and US MegaMillions fever is palpable all over the USA after it had rolled over again last Saturday - currently standing at an incredible R14.3 billion that could be won this week!
The US MegaMillions has had some of the world's biggest payouts ever and currently holds the record for the biggest single lottery win when a very lucky punter won an unbelievable US$877.8 million in October 2018.
But, did you know that you too can be part of the US MegaMillions excitement using the Lottoland SA platform to place your bet on the outcome of this American super lottery? You don’t have to be overseas to place your bet - South Africans can use the Lottoland SA to place their fixed odds bets right here, 24/7, from your smart device or desktop computer on the outcome of the US MegaMillions, as well as many of the other biggest lotteries in the world. In fact, players in South African have access to more than 30 other international and local lotteries on Lottoland SA. The entire process is digital, and you will be contacted automatically by Lottoland SA when you have won.
A standard US MegaMillions game starts at R70 and draws take place twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays. To place a bet, just pick 5 numbers from 1 to 70 plus a Megaball number from 1 to 25. You need to match all 5 numbers plus the Megaball to win the tier 1 prize, but US MegaMillions also pays out nine divisions of prizes. The additional MegaPlier option can increase winnings from the second division by 2x, 3x, 4x, or even 5x - for just R20 extra per game! If you correctly predict the outcome of the US MegaMillions win, you’ll be paid out the same as you would have if you entered the official draw in the USA.
