Guaranteed Prizes
Played recently?
To celebrate the launch, we looked back at eligible play from the previous five weeks. Existing players who completed an eligible set of 5 without winning a drawing prize may already have a Guaranteed Prize waiting. Check your winnings page to see whether you received one.
It’s your lucky day—guaranteed
You play the lottery when you feel lucky.
With Megapot, every eligible set of 5 tickets now ends with a prize.
Megapot tickets win approximately 1 in 4 times on average. But even with great odds, some players hit an unlucky streak.
That is where Guaranteed Prizes come in:
If at least one of your 5 tickets wins in the drawing, you receive your normal drawing prize.
If none of the 5 tickets wins, you receive a Guaranteed Prize worth up to $5,000 USD.
Either way, your eligible set of 5 wins something.
How Guaranteed Prizes work
Buy 5 or more tickets
Buy at least 5 eligible tickets in a single order on megapot.io.
Your tickets can be for the same drawing or spread across multiple drawings through an autoplay order of at least 5 tickets.
Each ticket still has its normal chance to win Megapot’s drawing prizes.
Eligibility
To qualify for a guaranteed prize, a ticket must meet both of the following conditions:
The ticket must be part of an order of 5 tickets or more, purchased directly on megapot.io. This includes:
Standard ticket orders: one-time purchases of 5+ tickets in a single transaction.
Autosub orders: recurring/subscription purchases where each recurring order is for 5+ tickets.
Purchased through an eligible channel. Only tickets bought directly through megapot.io count toward eligibility. Tickets purchased through third-party integrations, embedded widgets, or other frontends are not eligible unless otherwise stated.
Orders of fewer than 5 tickets, whether one-time or recurring, are not eligible for the guaranteed prize, regardless of total tickets accumulated across multiple smaller orders.
Note: Eligibility is evaluated per order, not per wallet or per drawing. Buying two separate orders of 3 tickets each does not qualify, even though the combined total is 6 tickets.
Win a drawing prize—or receive a Guaranteed Prize
After the drawing, we check each complete set of 5 tickets:
If one or more tickets in the set wins, you receive the normal drawing prize.
If none wins, you receive a Guaranteed Prize.
For larger orders, each set of 5 is checked separately:
5
1
10
2
15
3
20
4
This means one set could contain a drawing winner while another set from the same order receives a Guaranteed Prize.
What can I win?
Guaranteed Prizes may include free tickets and cash prizes up to $5,000 USD.
Eligible cash prizes can also be converted into Free Tickets.
Guaranteed Prizes with Autoplay
Autoplay lets you qualify even when your order buys fewer than 5 tickets per drawing.
Tickets purchased through the same eligible Autoplay order can build toward a complete set of 5 across multiple drawings.
For example, when your Autoplay order buys 2 tickets per drawing:
Drawing 1 adds 2 tickets.
Drawing 2 brings the total to 4.
The first ticket in Drawing 3 completes the set of 5.
The sixth ticket begins your next set.
After every fifth ticket has played, we check whether any of them won a drawing prize. If none did, you receive a Guaranteed Prize.
When an Autoplay order buys 5 or more tickets in one drawing, its complete sets of 5 are checked after that drawing.
Claiming your Guaranteed Prize
Guaranteed Prizes appear on your winnings page within a few minutes of the applicable drawing finishing. From there, you can view and claim your available rewards.

You receive the normal drawing prize. That set does not also receive a Guaranteed Prize.
Other sets of 5 from the same order are checked separately.
What happens if none of my 5 tickets wins?
You receive a Guaranteed Prize worth up to $5,000 USD.
What if I buy 8 tickets?
5 tickets form one complete set. The remaining three tickets do not form another set.

The remaining three tickets from a one-time purchase do not carry over to another purchase.
Can I combine separate purchases?
No. Separate one-time purchases cannot be combined.
Tickets purchased through the same eligible Autoplay order can accumulate across drawings until they form a complete set of 5.
Do gifted or promotional tickets qualify?
No. Gifted, incentive, and promotional tickets do not qualify for Guaranteed Prizes.
Do tickets purchased somewhere else qualify?
No. Guaranteed Prizes are only available for eligible tickets purchased on megapot.io.
Tickets purchased through another platform, a third-party integration, or directly through the smart contract do not qualify.
Can all 5 tickets use the same numbers?
No. Each ticket in an eligible set of 5 must have a unique number combination.
Can I receive both a drawing prize and a Guaranteed Prize?
You can receive both from the same overall order when they come from different sets of 5.
For example, with 10 tickets:
The first set of 5 might contain a drawing winner.
The second set might receive a Guaranteed Prize because none of its tickets won.
A single set of 5 cannot receive both winnings and a Guaranteed Prize.

For an Autoplay set spread across multiple drawings, it appears after every 5 tickets have played.
Can Guaranteed Prizes expire?

Do Guaranteed Prizes earn referral rewards?
No. When someone you referred receives a Guaranteed Prize, their prize does not generate a referral fee.
