** Prize amounts will vary depending on sales levels and number of winners.
Jackpots are paid in 26 annual payments, or a player may choose the Cash Value payment in one lump sum.
If a winner chooses the Cash Value of their jackpot prize he can claim it within 60 days of the Lottery's payment approval date. The payment option chosen will apply to all claimants in a multiple ownership claim.
Cash Option claimed can be received as an amount equal to the net proceeds of the sale of bonds purchased to fund the 26 annual payments for that prize. This will be a single lump sum payment and is estimated at 45% to 55% of the jackpot amount.
If you choose the annual payments option, you'll receive the SuperLotto Plus jackpot in 26 graduated annual payments.
For example, if the announced jackpot is $7 million, and you choose the annual payment option, you would receive $175,000 as the first payment (2.5% of jackpot amount). These payments would gradually increase each year until the final payment of $357,000.
