Idaho Lottery Games
Founded in July 1989, the first Idaho Lottery draw took place the same month. The Idaho Lottery consists of 10 multi-jurisdictional and locally run games, including opportunities to win significant sums of money every day.
Proceeds from the Idaho Lottery help fund public educational programs and the construction of buildings. As part of its public education funding program, the Idaho Lottery directly funds schools for general use and for specific purposes such as buying books for school libraries. The Idaho Lottery also runs a Classroom Wishlist program, which enables teachers to submit their wishlist before the lottery chooses the best one for funding every month.
Powerball
Powerball is a world-famous lottery renowned for its long odds and often lucrative jackpots.
Powerball tickets cost $2.00, with players choosing five numbers between 1 and 69, plus a Powerball number between 1 and 26. Players can choose their numbers manually or go for a Quick Pick. A Power Play option is also available, costing $1.00 for the chance to multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times.
Mega Millions
Mega Millions is another world-renowned lottery that’s even harder to win than Powerball, but with a very similar format.
As with Powerball, tickets cost $2.00.
Players must choose five numbers between 1 and 70 and a Mega Ball number between 1 and 25, with a Quick Pick option also being available for those wishing to play with random selections. Mega Millions has an additional Megaplier option for $1.00 for the chance to multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times.
Lucky for Life
Lucky for Life is a popular lottery game played across 23 states and the District of Columbia, giving players the chance to win $1,000 a day (paid out as $365,000 annually) for the rest of their lives, or the option to take home a lump sum of $5.75 million.
Tickets cost $2.00, with players choosing five main numbers from 1 to 48 and a Lucky Ball number between 1 and 18. Quick Pick is also available for those who prefer to play with random selections.
Lotto America
Lotto America is a popular multi-jurisdictional game available in 13 states.
Entry costs $1.00, with players choosing five numbers from 1 to 52 and a Star Ball from 1 to 10, with Quick Picks also available for players who prefer to enter with random selections.
For an additional $1.00, players can add the All-Star Bonus Multiplier, which multiplies non-jackpot prizes by up to five times.
5 Star Draw
The Idaho Lottery’s 5 Star Draw is a straightforward lottery game. Entry costs $5.00 for two lines; however, players who buy five entries on the same ticket get the fifth entry for free, for a total ticket price of $20 for 10 entries.
Players must choose two sets of five numbers between 1 and 45, or can go for a Quick Pick to enter with randomly chosen selections.
Idaho Cash
Idaho Cash is an uncomplicated lottery game that uses the same format as 5 Star Draw, but with participation costing just $1.00 for two entries.
As with 5 Star Draw, players must choose two sets of five numbers between 1 and 45, or can go for a Quick Pick to enter with randomly chosen selections.
Unlike 5 Star Draw, however, there is no discount for purchasing multiple entries on the same ticket.
Weekly Grand
Weekly Grand is a popular lottery that is similar to Lucky for Life, albeit with smaller prizes. Entry costs $2.00.
Participants choose five numbers from 1 to 32, or can go for a Quick Pick to enter with randomly chosen numbers.
All non-winning Weekly Grand tickets can also be submitted through the Idaho Lottery website into a Second Chance Draw, for the opportunity to win $1000 a week for a year.
2by2
2by2 is a popular multi-jurisdictional lottery that is available in Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota and Wyoming. Entry costs just $1.00.
Participants choose two sets of two numbers between 1 and 26, with the jackpot being won by matching both sets of numbers during the draw. Players can choose the same numbers for both sets if they wish. Quick Pick is available for those who prefer to play with randomly chosen numbers.
Pick 4
Pick 4 has multiple entry options, with stakes costing $1.00, $2.00 or $5.00.
Players must choose four numbers from 0 to 9, and because each number is chosen independently, the same number can be chosen repeatedly if desired. Participants then choose whether to bet on matching numbers in the order drawn, in any order, or to split their chosen stake equally between both options.
Alternatively, players can bet their stake on matching the front, mid or back pairs of numbers.
For an additional $1.00, players can add the Sum It Up! game to their ticket for a chance to win extra prizes. Players win if the sum of the numbers drawn matches their own. For example, if a player chooses 1, 2, 3 and 4, but 4, 3, 2 and 1 are drawn, they will still win a prize. Sum It Up! prizes are paid out in addition to other wins, depending on the type of bet, but are not available for pairs bets.
Pick 3
Pick 3 has multiple entry options, with stakes costing $1.00 or $5.00.
Players must choose three numbers from 0 to 9, and because each number is chosen independently, the same number can be chosen repeatedly if desired. Participants then choose whether to bet on matching numbers in the order drawn, in any order, or to split their chosen stake equally between both options.
Alternatively, players can bet on matching the front or back pairs of numbers drawn.
For an additional $1.00, players can add the Sum It Up! game to their ticket for a chance to win extra prizes. Players win if the sum of the numbers drawn matches their own.

Sum It Up! prizes are paid out in addition to other wins, depending on the type of bet, but are not available for pairs bets.
