For winnings between $501 and $100,000, players must mail their signed ticket, a completed claim form, and a government-issued photo ID to the South Carolina Education Lottery Claims Center. Larger winnings exceeding $100,000 require claims to be made in person at the South Carolina Education Lottery Headquarters, where documentation including the winning ticket, claim form, ID, and Social Security card must be presented. An Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) option is available for larger prizes, allowing for direct deposit of winnings.

Participants select six numbers: five white balls ranging from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball ranging from 1 to 26. Players can opt for a “Power Play” for an additional $1, which increases non-jackpot prize winnings by up to 10 times.
Powerball drawings take place on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday evenings, and if there are no winners, the jackpot continues to increase, enticing more players to join in. For those preferring a digital experience, the Jackpocket app offers a convenient platform for playing the lottery electronically, available in various U.S. states.
