Mini Powerball: 10% Prizes on the $440 Million Powerball Draw
Mini Powerball uses the very same draw as the US Powerball but pays exactly 10% of each Powerball prize. With the Powerball jackpot at US$440 million on Saturday, 3 October 2026, the Mini Powerball jackpot stands at US$44 million. Here is how the game works on LottoPark.
The Powerball jackpot has reached US$440 million for Saturday, 3 October 2026. That puts the Mini Powerball jackpot at US$44 million – exactly one tenth. Mini Powerball is a LottoPark game built on the official Powerball draw, designed for players who want to follow the same numbers with smaller prize amounts.
How Does Mini Powerball Work?
The rules are identical to Powerball. On each line you pick:
- 5 main numbers from 1 to 69,
- 1 Powerball from 1 to 26.
Your lines take part in the same Monday, Wednesday and Saturday drawing at 10:59 p.m. Eastern Time, and the winning numbers are exactly the ones drawn for Powerball. The only difference is the prize level: every Mini Powerball prize is 10% of the Powerball prize for the same match. At LottoPark the minimum order for Mini Powerball is 10 lines.

A Quick Example From the Latest Draw
The Powerball numbers on Wednesday, 30 September 2026 were 4, 6, 23, 33, 44 and Powerball 13 – and these were also the Mini Powerball winning numbers. A line matching four white balls and the Powerball would have won US$50,000 in Powerball and US$5,000 in Mini Powerball. A line matching only the Powerball would have paid US$4 and US$0.40 respectively. Same numbers, same result – just a different prize scale.
Are the Odds the Same?
Yes. Because both games use one draw, the chances are identical: 1 in 292,201,338 for the top prize and 9 prize tiers in total. What changes is the scale of each prize, not the probability of winning it.
How the Mini Powerball Jackpot Grows
The Mini Powerball jackpot is tied directly to Powerball. When Powerball resets to its starting value of US$20 million, Mini Powerball starts at US$2 million. Every time the Powerball estimate rises, the Mini Powerball jackpot rises by one tenth of that increase. Since the Powerball jackpot was last won on 12 August 2026, the Mini Powerball jackpot has grown from about US$2 million to US$44 million.
Who Is Mini Powerball For?
- Players who like Powerball's format but prefer a game with a smaller headline prize.
- Group and system players who want to cover more lines in a single order.
- Anyone following the Powerball run who wants the same excitement every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.
A US$44 million top prize is still larger than many national lottery jackpots around the world, so the game is far from "mini" in absolute terms.
How Are Mini Powerball Prizes Paid?
Prizes up to US$2,500 won at LottoPark are credited to your account automatically. Larger prizes are paid out individually with the help of the customer support team.
