Jackpot.com, a leading online lottery courier service, is making it easier than ever for customers to grab their shot at massive jackpots as Mega Millions rolls out its biggest changes yet this April. With improved odds, bigger jackpots more frequently, larger starting jackpots, faster growing jackpots, a built-in multiplier feature on every play, and wins that are always bigger than the ticket price, the game is set to deliver more excitement than ever. To support the new and improved game features, tickets will cost $5. As always, Jackpot.com ensures a secure, seamless way to order lottery tickets, so players never miss a chance to win big.

“Mega Millions is one of the most exciting and widely played lottery games in the U.S., and these changes are expected to generate even more enthusiasm among players. Our mission at Jackpot.com is to make the lottery more accessible and convenient while prioritizing responsible gaming. We are ready to support our customers as they experience the new Mega Millions format,” said Akshay Khanna, CEO and Co-Founder of Jackpot.com.

All updates to the game will debut following the final drawing of the current game format, which takes place on April 4. From that point on, the game will tout larger winnings within every non-jackpot tier, improved overall odds of winning, bigger starting jackpots, and faster-growing jackpots. The first drawing to feature these game enhancements comes on Tuesday, April 8 at 11 p.m. Eastern.

“This is the first time the game has been changed since the current game matrix was implemented in 2017, so we expect a great deal of interest when this new format goes into effect following the April 4 drawing. We anticipate an increase in early ticket purchases as players are drawn to the excitement of rapidly escalating prizes, especially the chance to win bigger non-jackpot prizes made possible by the increase in ticket price,” said Khanna.

Today, Jackpot .com, the website and app that allows lottery players to safely and securely order official state lottery tickets and scratchers from their mobile phones, desktops and tablets, announced the launch of its services in Arizona. With this latest offering, Arizonians can now purchase and play their favorite lottery games from anywhere.

Lottery players in Arizona can now instantly buy tickets for their favorite nationwide games such as Mega Millions and Powerball, as well as the popular local game, The Pick draw.   The innovative platform purchases tickets on behalf of its customers from an official state lottery retailer, displaying a scan of their ticket and transferring winnings under $600 in real-time to their account. For prizes greater than $600, Jackpot.com securely delivers the ticket to the winning player to collect their winnings from the Arizona Lottery.

Arizona residents will also have access to Scratchers – the digital scratch ticket offering focused on expediting the convenience and the processing times of scratcher games. Jackpot.com has launched with four of the most popular scratchers in Arizona, including Lady Luck, $230 Million Cash Explosion, Instant Millions, 500x Fortune and more. Customers simply have to “scratch” their device screen with their finger or mouse to reveal their scanned ticket and potential winnings. Jackpot.com delivers the industry’s fastest online lottery scratch card experience and has also completed a comprehensive business process review by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), which ensures its method for ordering and processing lottery scratch tickets is accurate and functions as expected for both Jackpot.com and the player.

Every year, the Arizona Lottery gives back hundreds of millions of dollars from ticket sales to a variety of programs and organizations striving to make an impact in higher education, health and human services, environmental conservation, and economic and business development. This fiscal year, the Arizona Lottery achieved $1.52 billion in sales, a historic milestone since the state lottery’s inception in 1981, and contributed $314.89 million to its primary beneficiaries with approximately $217,000 also going to the State of Arizona’s General Fund.

“We could not be more excited to launch in Arizona and offer the people of The Grand Canyon State a more convenient way to play the lottery,” said CEO and co-founder, Akshay Khanna. “With Jackpot, Arizonians will be able to purchase lottery tickets and scratchers from wherever they want on their mobile devices. By improving access, we’re happy to help Arizonians contribute to the great causes that are supported by the Arizona Lottery.”
