Any player taking part in the MegaMillions lottery can choose to use Megaplier by paying an additional $1. This option multiplies any non-jackpot prize winnings 2, 3, 4, or even 5 times, depending on the Megaplier number drawn.
After the main draw has taken place, a new number (Ball) ranging from 2 to 5, is drawn from a third pool. The winner of a non-jackpot prize, who has opted for Megaplier, will multiply his winnings by the number drawn of this third pool.
