What to do if you win<\/p>\n

Ticket holders can see immediately if they have won<\/a> if they purchased a ticket through MyLotto. Prizes of $1000 or less are automatically credited to the account.<\/p>\n

For prizes exceeding $1000, winners must complete an online prize claim form.<\/p>\n

Winners with physical tickets must still visit a Lotto retailer to claim their prize.<\/p>\n

For the Powerball jackpot to be claimed, a ticket holder must get all six Lotto numbers correct as well as the added Powerball number.<\/p>\n
