Jackpot.com is making it easier than ever for customers to grab their shot at massive jackpots with Mega Millions®.

As lottery enthusiasts prepare for these changes, Jackpot.com is ensuring seamless access to Mega Millions^® tickets through its user-friendly platform. With just a few clicks on their mobile phone, tablet, or computer, players can securely order official state lottery tickets without needing to visit a physical retailer.

"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," said Akshay Khanna, CEO and Co-Founder of Jackpot.com. "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."

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," said Khanna. "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."
