POWERBALL© is one of America’s most recognized draw games, letting players across multiple states—including West Virginia—take part in the draw for record-breaking jackpots. You can buy tickets in person or through the West Virginia Lottery’s secure online platform, giving you access to these nationally celebrated chance-based POWERBALL drawings.
What makes POWERBALL© special
Biggest jackpot awaits
POWERBALL© runs across 48 Lottery jurisdictions in the U.S. The game is famous for its massive jackpots, starting at $20 million and growing with each draw until someone matches all the winning numbers. Drawings happen three times weekly on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 11:00 PM Eastern Time, so you could have multiple chances each week.
Playing is straightforward. You’ll pick five numbers from one to 69, and one POWERBALL© number from one to 26. For an extra $1, you can add Power Play, which multiplies non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times depending on the multiplier drawn.
