This Time, You Can Enter InstaPlay Tickets For A Chance To Win More Prizes

This time, InstaPlay games are in the spotlight in a promotion that gives you the chance to enter tickets for a chance to win more prizes -- A LOT more in prizes. To be specific, the InstaPlay promotion that began this morning has a total of $228,000 in prizes on the line!

We’re applying the “max bet” concept in this Play It Again® promotion, meaning that the size of the prize you could win increases with the purchase price of the ticket you enter.

There are five categories in the promotion based on the ticket price point involved:

• $20 tickets are eligible for a $20,000 prize.
• $10 tickets are eligible for a $10,000 prize.
• $5 tickets are eligible for a $5,000 prize.
• $2 tickets are eligible for a $2,000 prize.
• $1 tickets are eligible for a $1,000 prize.

The promotion will have two drawings. They’ll be held on Feb. 3 and Feb. 24, with 15 cash prizes awarded in each. That works out to 3 prizes per category in both drawings.

So, in the Feb. 3 drawing, there will be 3 winners of a $20,000 prize, 3 winners of a $10,000 prize, 3 winners of a $5,000 prize, 3 winners of a $2,000 prize and 3 winners of a $1,000 prize. That same thing will happen in the Feb. 24 drawing.

Only recent InstaPlay tickets can be entered. Any nonwinning InstaPlay ticket purchased on or after Jan. 3 of this year is eligible for entry into the promotion. And remember that you’ll need to be a member of the lottery’s free VIP Club to enter.

You can enter tickets for the first drawing until the morning of Feb. 1, and then entries will start over for the second drawing, with its entry period open until the morning of Feb. 22. Entries will not carry over from one drawing to the next.

You can win a prize in each category you enter. (Yes, the odds of that happening are long, but we’ve seen players win multiple prizes before in our drawings.)

Good luck, thank you for playing, and we hope you have fun with this moment in the sun for our InstaPlay games!

Hello. The comment you made comes from folks in a lot of different areas -- rural, urban, big town, small town, east/west, etc. It's something we address in the FAQs on our website because it seems to be a myth that's based upon the area you're from, no matter where that is. We think the root of the situation is that people will never be truly satisfied unless they're the ones who win the jackpot! In reality, people can and do win lottery prizes every day. And just to clarify, here is a link to the map page for the fourth drawing in the Warehouse Dash promotion. None of the winners were from the Des Moines area. They were from numerous other communities around the state. https://www.ialottery.com/Images/Promotions/2021/WarehouseDash/WarehouseDashMap_Draw4.jpg

Ok I am not getting this situation at all but I would like to know why all the "instant" play tickets that have been won are all around Des Moines area, all these second chance drawings, always winners around Des Moines, like your trying to keep the money around the lottery headquarters. This last second chance drawing you map it and it sure as heck is all in des moines area, just amazes me how these second chance drawings and all your instant games oh, yeah your pop up games how all the winners choosen are all in and around Des moines area.
