CHOOSE YOUR JACKPOT PAYOUT
  • When you win a Powerball® jackpot, you have 60 days from the time you present your claim at CT Lottery Headquarters to decide whether you want your prize as an "Annuity" or "Cash Lump Sum" payout.

  • Select the "Annuity" option, and receive your jackpot prize in 30 payments over 29 years. Pick the "Cash Lump Sum" payout, and you will receive your prize in a one-time payment. If you do not make a choice, you will automatically receive the "Annuity" payout option.

HOW LATE CAN I BUY A TICKET?
Lottery retailers are expected to make tickets available to customers during their hours of operation. Powerball® sales close at 11:00pm on non-drawing days. On drawing days, sales close at 10:00pm.

Lottery terminals can be activated for sales after the drawing numbers have been validated and made official into the on-line system. Between the hours of 11:00pm and 6:00am each night (later on Powerball® nights), all lottery terminals are "taken down" for reporting purposes. During those hours, lottery tickets cannot be issued and Lottery tickets cannot be sold.
CAN I BUY POWERBALL® TICKETS ONLINE OR BY MAIL?
No. Federal legislation prohibits lotteries from selling tickets by mail or on the Internet. Click here to learn how to protect yourself from scams.
