New Mass Lottery $50 Instant Ticket Features $25 Million Grand Prize

DORCHESTER, Mass. (May 13, 2025) – The Massachusetts State Lottery today is launching a new $50 instant “scratch” ticket, $25,000,000 Mega Money, featuring a grand prize of $25 million. The ticket is on sale now at Mass Lottery retailers across the state.

The $25,000,000 Mega Money ticket includes three $25 million prizes, four $2 million prizes, and 12 $1 million prizes. With an overall prize payout of 82.0 percent, $25,000,000 Mega Money matches the highest payout percentage of any game offered by the Mass Lottery. The odds of winning a prize in the new game are 1 in 4.10, and all winning tickets total $100 or more.

“With a massive top prize, no break-even prizes, and attractive Second Chance opportunities, the $25,000,000 Mega Money ticket gives customers a great value consistent with its price point,” said Mark William Bracken, Executive Director of the Mass Lottery.

The game features 10 Second Chance Drawings, allowing players to enter non-winning tickets for opportunities to win cash prizes ranging from $100 to $50,000. In each of the 10 drawings, 10 $50,000 prizes, 8 $1,000 prizes, 65 $500 prizes, and 250 $100 prizes will be awarded.

$25,000,000 Mega Money is a key number match style game, containing 10 “Winning Numbers” and 35 “Your Numbers.” If one or more of the “Your Numbers” match the “Winning Numbers,” the player wins the corresponding amount. There are also multiplier symbols ranging from 5X to 500X in the “Your Numbers” spots that multiply winning combinations. Three Bonus spots give players the opportunity to automatically win cash prizes.

The Mass Lottery launched its first $50 ticket, Billion Dollar Extravaganza, in February of 2023. In February of 2024, the Lottery launched its second $50 ticket, Lifetime Millions. As of today, two Lifetime Millions grand prizes of $1 million a year for life are still unclaimed. Both tickets are still available for purchase at Mass Lottery retail locations.
