The prize can multiply by 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 10x!
- Double Play Option
For $1 extra on-top of the $2 classic Powerball ticket, you can choose the Double Play feature. Totalling to $3, this add-on allows you to play the same set of numbers in a special Double Play drawing after the main Powerball draw. The top prize you can win from the Double Play drawing is $10 million. It is only available in select jurisdictions.
- Power Play & Double Play Combined
Finally, you can add both the Power and Double Play features to the same ticket ($2 for Powerball ticket, extra $1 for Power Play, and an extra $1 for Double Play= $4 total). The only catch is that the Power Play does not apply to prizes that are won in the Double Play drawing.
