If you win the Mega Millions jackpot, you will have to decide between two payment options:
- Annuity option: provides an immediate payout followed by 29 annual payments, each increasing by 5% to help keep the purse above inflation.
- Cash option: you can also choose a lump sum payment, which is the entire jackpot paid in one lump sum, from which taxes are deducted immediately, causing the amount to be significantly reduced.
