Mega Millions’ jackpot starts at US$50,000,000 and the jackpot has on occasion rolled over to astronomical amounts. Mega Millions awarded a US$656 million jackpot in March 2012, a world record the lottery held for 4 years. One third of this huge prize was won by the 'Three Amigos', three lottery syndicate winners .

The Mega Millions world record stood until January 2016, when Powerball took over the crown as the lottery champion of the world with a US$1.586 billion jackpot.
