Jackpocket announced Wednesday that a Mega Millions ticket worth $3 million was ordered in Westchester County, New York using the Jackpocket lottery app. The third-party application provides consumers a way to order official state lottery tickets.

The Quick Pick ticket matched 5 of 5 white numbers drawn in the July 22 Mega Millions drawing, only missing the gold Mega Ball. By adding the $1 Megaplier to their ticket, the player multiplied their second-prize winnings by 3X to a guaranteed $3 million. 

Jackpocket Founder and CEO Pete Sullivan commented: "We can't wait to celebrate this NY winner and are so proud to facilitate this life-changing win for them. Jackpocket's mission is to make the lottery more accessible and convenient to play. As this historic Mega Millions crosses the $1 billion mark, it's easier than ever to play your favorite games from anywhere in New York."

New York saw another Jackpocket player win a $1 million Cash4Life prize on July 21 in Kings County. The back-to-back millionaires became the 5th and 6th New York lottery players to win prizes worth a million dollars or more using the app

So far, there have been over 350,000 Jackpocket winners in New York State who have claimed more than $60 million in prize money since the app's launch in 2021, according to data provided by the company.

Nationwide, over $160 million in lottery prizes has been won on Jackpocket by more than 1 million individual winners to date. In total, 18 individual Jackpocket players across the country have won prizes of $1 million or more.

Jackpocket is live in 12 states in the US, with the latest launch being in Montana earlier this month. Players in that state can now place ticket orders for lottery games including Powerball, Mega Millions, Lotto America, Lucky for Life, Montana Cash, and Big Sky Bonus on Jackpocket's mobile application.

The platform allows players to place ticket orders, view an image of their ticket, check lottery results, and even receive prizes up to $599 directly on the app. If players win more than $599, the winning ticket will be transferred to them for redemption at the Montana Lottery.
