Lotto America — how does it work?

Lotto America, for those unfamiliar, is a multi-state lottery game that debuted in 2017. The Multi-State Lottery Association operates the draw game, which is a revival of the original Lotto America, which was offered from 1988 to 1992.

Lotto America is available to play in 15 jurisdictions: Delaware, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, and West Virginia. The drawings take place every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 9:15 p.m. CT.

To play Lotto America, players pick five numbers from 1 to 52 and then pick a Star Ball number from 1 to 10. Each ticket costs $1 per play, and for an additional $1, players can add the All Star Bonus option, which is an add-on where a randomly drawn number can multiply non-jackpot winnings by 2, 3, 4, or 5 times.

There are nine prize categories in the Lotto America game, which ranges from $2 for matching the Star Ball up to the jackpot for matching all six of the winning numbers drawn. The jackpot starts at $2 million and grows with each drawing that doesn't have a jackpot winner.

Enjoy playing the lottery, and please remember to play responsibly.
