The short version

Power Play is on sale in Wisconsin; Double Play is not, so a Wisconsin ticket tops out at $3 a line. At the jackpot standing after the November 6, 2026 draw, one $5 ticket bought in Wisconsin is worth $1.75 — 35 cents on the dollar once Wisconsin's 7.65% withholding comes off the jackpot, against $1.81 before it. A single winner of the $529 million jackpot who takes the cash keeps about $124.1 million in Wisconsin after the whole federal bill and Wisconsin's 7.65% withholding (every state). Mega Millions after taxes in Wisconsin: lump sum vs annuity.

Minimum age

Wisconsin Lottery's own rule. Five jurisdictions set it higher: four at 21 and one at 19.

What a Wisconsin ticket is worth right now

The advertised jackpot is $529 million. The cash value is about $224 million, because the headline is a 30-year annuity and nobody takes it. At that jackpot our sales model puts the chance of having to share a win at enough that a winning ticket is worth 89% of the prize on average rather than all of it. Then Wisconsin withholds 7.65% — about $17 million of that cash value — and the federal 24% comes off on top of that. What a Wisconsin winner keeps after tax, beside every other state.

The withholding only comes off the jackpot term here, not off the whole figure. Nearly all of a ticket's non-jackpot value sits in the $4.00 and $7.00 tiers, which no state withholds on; taxing those too would push the number down in a way that happens to flatter our own conclusion, so we do not. The draw-by-draw chart behind this is on the Mega Millions page.

Hot and cold over the whole run

The drawing is national, so the frequencies are too — there is no Wisconsin hot number, only a Mega Millions one. Over the 942 draws since the game began drawing five numbers from 1 to 70, 10 has come up most (88 times against 67 expected) and 69 has waited longest, 59 draws.

10 has come up most often, 88 times. Each number averages about 67 over 942 draws, and whichever number happens to lead normally finishes around 19 ahead. 10 is 21 ahead, so this is an ordinary spread rather than a streak. 65 has come up least, 53 times.

Wisconsin's own draw games

Mega Millions is the same everywhere. These are not — Wisconsin Lottery runs them, and we hold 52,719 of their draws, the oldest from June 20, 1992.

Wisconsin Mega Millions questions

Can you buy Power Play in Wisconsin?
Yes. It costs $1 a play on top of the $2 ticket and multiplies every prize below the jackpot by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 — the 10 only when the advertised jackpot is $150 million or less. We price that extra dollar at about 46 cents at a large jackpot and 50 cents when the 10× ball is in the drum.
Is Double Play available in Wisconsin?
No. 30 of the 48 Powerball lotteries offer Double Play and Wisconsin is not one of them, so a Wisconsin ticket tops out at $3 a line. powerball.com publishes the list, and says more lotteries may add it later.
How much tax does Wisconsin take from a Mega Millions win?
Wisconsin withholds 7.65%, on top of the 24% held back federally. On the cash value of the jackpot as it stands now that is about $17 million to the state alone. Withholding is not the final bill — what you actually owe is settled when you file. Run your own number through the calculator.
Are Mega Millions prizes in Wisconsin the same as the national prize chart?
Yes. Every prize below the jackpot is a set cash amount in Wisconsin, exactly as the national chart prints it. Only California pays pari-mutuel instead.
How old do you have to be to play Mega Millions in Wisconsin?
18. Wisconsin Lottery sets it, and a winning ticket has to be claimed in the jurisdiction where it was bought.
Where were the Wisconsin Mega Millions numbers drawn?
In Tallahassee, Florida, like every Mega Millions drawing — one drawing serves all 47 jurisdictions. The numbers on this page are the same numbers as everywhere else; what the page adds is what they are worth to a Wisconsin ticket. The national analysis is here.
