Compare before you play
Which game has the best odds?
Smaller games like Thunderball (1 in 8 million) or UK 49s have far better jackpot odds than Powerball (1 in 292 million) or Mega Millions (1 in 302 million). But those bigger games offer life-changing jackpots that roll over — a trade-off each player weighs differently.
The jackpot amount shown is only the headline prize. Consider also the overall odds of winning any prize, the ticket price, and how taxes apply in your location. There is no single "best" lottery — it depends on what you value.

Jackpot FAQ
Are the jackpot numbers live?
No. We provide typical/estimated figures for comparison. Live jackpots update by the game operator every draw. Check official lottery sites for the current number.
Why do some games show better odds?
Games with smaller number pools (Thunderball, UK 49s, Mega-Sena) naturally have better jackpot odds than games with huge pools (Powerball, Mega Millions). Larger pools let jackpots grow bigger before someone wins.
Is a higher jackpot "better"?
Higher jackpots can mean better expected value, but odds are fixed and independent of size. A 300-million-jackpot ticket is no more likely to win than a 20-million one — you just win more if you do.
