The Mega Millions jackpot is worth millions of dollars. If you have been thinking about entering this lottery, this might be a good time to do so. There are three different ways to participate in the lottery.

Buy physical tickets

The first way to take part in the Mega Millions lottery would be to walk to a vendor and buy a ticket. The problem here is that physical tickets to this US lottery are only sold in the United States. So, if you are not living in the US it is almost impossible to purchase a physical ticket.

Get online lottery tickets

The second option, particularly if you are not living in the US, is to buy your lottery ticket online. Thankfully, there are lots of online lottery sites that sell tickets to top international lotteries, including Mega Millions.

If you choose to go this route, be sure to buy your lottery tickets from a trusted site.

Bet on the outcome

Mega Millions is a high-stakes lottery and some players get a bit nervous about entering that lottery. For such players, there is the option of betting on the outcome of the lottery. That means that even if you match the drawn numbers, you will only win a fraction of the jackpot. 

It is a far cry from entering the lottery, but some people are comfortable with that option. If you choose to buy your lottery ticket online, check to see if you are entering the lottery or betting on the outcome. Either one is fine, at the end of the day it is a matter of choice.
