Following a historic Mega Millions win last week, the Powerball is now on top again, offering the biggest draw game jackpot for multi-state lottery games.

You can purchase your tickets online or at a retail location in Michigan. We recommend online purchases because you can use an exclusive welcome bonus.

, and the Michigan Lottery will give you a 50% deposit match bonus worth up to $100. Use the promo code MLIVE when you join to get the bonus offer.

The Michigan Lottery bonus is a 50% deposit match up to $100 maximum. To get the bonus, . You’ll also need to provide some personal details when you sign up.

But what, exactly, does the deposit match mean? It’s relatively simple. The very first deposit you make after you sign up for an account will be matched by half in bonus credits. For example, the following deposit amounts would yield the corresponding bonus credits. Keep in mind that $100 is the maximum.

  • $10 deposit = $5 bonus credit
  • $70 deposit = $35 bonus credit
  • $100 deposit = $50 bonus credit
  • $200 deposit = $100 bonus credit
  • $350 deposit = $100 bonus credit

Simply divide the amount of your deposit by two, and you’ll get that much in bonus credit. Any deposits over $200 will get you a $100 bonus credit. Use the credit to play Michigan Lottery games, including Powerball.

The most important thing to note is that only your first deposit gets the match. Any subsequent deposits won’t get you a bonus credit.

When you play Powerball, you’re required to pick 6 numbers:

  • 5 white ball numbers between 1 and 69
  • One red Powerball number between 1 and 26

You can’t repeat numbers on the same “line” or game. However, you can purchase multiple lines at once if you choose. You can pick numbers manually or have the site pick them for you. You can also purchase tickets for multiple drawings.

Matching all five white balls and the Powerball wins you the jackpot.

Each line costs $2, and you can add Power Play for $1 each. Power play multiplies any non-jackpot wins by up to 5x.

Powerball drawings occur on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 11 p.m. ET. You can purchase tickets up to 15 minutes before a given drawing takes place.
