A Powerball ticket purchased through the West Virginia Lottery’s iPlay app won $100,000, with the Power Play option doubling the ticket’s base prize.
According to WVNS, citing the West Virginia Lottery, the ticket matched four numbers plus the Powerball. It marks the third Powerball prize worth at least $50,000 won through the Lottery’s iLottery app.
Power Play doubled the $50,000 prize
The winning ticket qualified for a $50,000 prize before Power Play increased the payout to $100,000. The optional feature applies a randomly drawn multiplier to non-jackpot prizes.
A standard Powerball ticket costs $2, while a ticket with Power Play costs $3. In this case, the additional option doubled the prize; the reported win was not a jackpot-winning ticket.
Powerball players select five numbers from 1 through 69 and one Powerball number from 1 through 26.
The winner must complete the claim at Lottery headquarters
The $100,000 winner can begin the claim process through their iPlay account, according to the report. They must then complete the process at West Virginia Lottery headquarters.
The app allows digital ticket purchases after users download it from Google Play or the App Store and create an account. The reported purchase deadline is 9:59 p.m. on drawing days.
Oct. 26 jackpot was estimated at $687 million
Separately, the Powerball jackpot was estimated at approximately $687 million, with a $294.7 million cash value, for the Monday, Oct. 26, 2026, drawing.
That drawing was the 31st in the current jackpot run. WVNS described the advertised prize as the second-largest Powerball jackpot available to win in 2026 at that point, with six jackpot wins recorded since the start of the year.
Those figures refer to the Oct. 26 drawing, rather than a confirmed jackpot amount for a subsequent drawing.
