Notable Kansas Lottery Wins

Kansas has produced multiple significant lottery winners since 1987. The state's participation in both Powerball (as a founding member since 1992) and Mega Millions has given players access to some of the largest jackpots ever offered. Several Kansas players have claimed prizes exceeding $100 million in multi-state games.

Powerball and Mega Millions Winners

Kansas's biggest lottery wins have come from the multi-state games. As a founding Powerball state, Kansas has had decades of chances at massive jackpots. Notable prizes include multiple Powerball jackpots and large Mega Millions wins. For strategy resources, see our Powerball Guide and Mega Millions Guide.

Super Kansas Cash Winners

Super Kansas Cash produces winners of its rolling jackpot on a regular basis due to its more favorable odds compared to multi-state games. With jackpot odds of roughly 1 in 6.25 million, the game creates a steady stream of six-figure winners. The jackpot starts at $100,000 and can grow substantially between wins.

Claiming Prizes in Kansas

Kansas lottery prizes must be claimed within 365 days of the drawing date. Prizes up to $599 can be claimed at any licensed lottery retailer. Prizes of $600 or more require a claim form and can be submitted at the Kansas Lottery office in Topeka or by mail. Prizes over $5,000 are subject to automatic tax withholding.

Taxes on Kansas Lottery Winnings

Kansas has a 5.58% state tax on lottery winnings. Federal withholding of 24% applies to prizes over $5,000, bringing the combined withholding to 29.58% for larger prizes. Use our Jackpot Tax Calculator to model the difference between lump sum and annuity for any prize amount.
