Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Where can I watch the actual drawing?

The Colorado Lottery posts drawing videos on their official YouTube channel and website. Drawings are also broadcast on local TV stations.

2. What is "Power Play" and "Plus"—are they worth it?

  • Power Play (Powerball) costs $1 extra and multiplies non-jackpot wins by 2×, 3×, 4×, 5×, or 10× (10× only when jackpot is under $150M).
  • Plus (Lotto+) costs $1 extra and gives a separate drawing with fixed prizes—no splitting!
    Both add more ways to win for a small cost. Many players add them routinely.

3. Can I check results on my phone?

Yes! Download the official Colorado Lottery app (iOS/Android) to scan tickets, see results, and get jackpot alerts.

4. What if I lost my ticket?

Unfortunately, no ticket = no claim. The Lottery cannot pay out without the physical (or digital) ticket. Always sign and secure your tickets right after purchase.

5. Where does the money go if no one wins?

Unclaimed prizes return to the Lottery Prize Fund to boost future jackpots, fund special promotions, and support Colorado parks, recreation, open space, and schools (via Great Outdoors Colorado).
