If you’re feeling lucky in Arizona, the lottery has plenty of ways for you to test your fortune. From massive national jackpots to quick local draws, the Arizona Lottery offers a little something for every kind of player.
Big Names, Big Wins
When most people think of life-changing prizes, two games immediately come to mind: Powerball and Mega Millions. Arizona players have seen these jackpots climb into jaw-dropping territory, even making their way into the top 10 largest lottery wins in U.S. history. It’s the kind of excitement that keeps fans coming back, hoping the next big winner is holding an Arizona ticket.
But the fun doesn’t stop with the nationwide games. Arizona has its own exclusive line-up, including The Pick, Triple Twist, Fantasy 5, and Pick 3. These local draws give players more chances to win, often with better odds than the big national jackpots. On top of that, the state also offers Scratchers, Quick Draw, and Fast Play, giving you instant results if patience isn’t your thing.

Where the Money Goes
It’s not just about winning; it’s also about giving back. The Arizona Lottery plays a major role in supporting the state. Funds from ticket sales go toward education, health and human services, environmental conservation, and even economic development. So, even if you don’t strike it rich, your ticket still helps the community.
Claiming Your Prize
If you’ve hit the jackpot—or even just scored a smaller win—here’s what you need to know:
-
Prizes up to $100: Cash them in at any lottery retailer.
-
Prizes up to $599: Many retailers can also handle these, so you don’t have to go far.
-
Over $599: You’ll need to submit your claim either by mail or in person at an Arizona Lottery office.
By mail: Send in a claim form, your winning ticket, and a copy of a government-issued ID.
In person: Sign the back of your ticket, complete a claim form, and bring both along with your ID to an official office.
Arizona Lottery offices are located in Phoenix, Tucson, Kingman, and even Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport, each with their own limits on prize amounts. The Phoenix and Tucson offices can handle any amount, while Sky Harbor and Kingman can redeem wins up to $49,999.
Where to Buy Tickets
Buying tickets is easy. You can grab them while filling up at a gas station, shopping at the grocery store, or stopping by a convenience store. Some airport terminals also have ticket sales if you’re traveling and feeling spontaneous.
For those who prefer to play from the comfort of home, the Jackpocket app makes it possible to order tickets online. Available in Arizona and several other states, it lets you choose your game, pick numbers, see your ticket, and even claim winnings—all from your phone or computer.
