Arkansas Player Wins $250.8 Million Powerball Jackpot with Ticket Ordered Using Jackpocket App

Little rock, Ark.

For the second time in less than three months, an Arkansas Scholarship Lottery (ASL) player has won the Powerball® jackpot.

Monday night’s jackpot-winning ticket was ordered in Arkansas via the Jackpocket mobile app. The winning numbers were 2, 17, 18, 38 and 62, and the Powerball number was 20.

The $250.8 million jackpot marks the largest prize ever won from a ticket ordered through Jackpocket’s mobile app. The Jackpocket retail location, Winners Corner, is located at 6801 W. 12th St. in Little Rock.

“We’re thrilled for our customer in Arkansas and amazed that just their second order placed with Jackpocket resulted in a life-changing $250.8 million jackpot — setting a new Jackpocket record,” said Pete Sullivan, SVP, Lottery at DraftKings. “This historic win underscores our commitment to delivering a best-in-class, secure, and seamless lottery experience for our customers.”

The Arkansas Scholarship Lottery partners with Jackpocket to offer more convenient ways to play lottery games. In-state players can order draw game tickets using the mobile app or purchase in person at a licensed ASL retailer.

Alongside Jackpocket, ASL officials also celebrate the momentous jackpot win. The $250.8 million jackpot is the second-largest lottery prize awarded in the state, following the $1.817 billion Powerball win in December 2025.

“We are excited to make Arkansas lottery history with another Powerball jackpot win in just over two months,” said ASL Executive Director Sharon Strong. “As with our other lottery prizes, the benefits of this win are multi-layered. From raising funds for in-state student scholarships to supporting our retailers and contributing to the state’s economy, we look forward to seeing this positive impact spread across Arkansas communities.”

Proceeds from Powerball and other lottery ticket sales contribute to ASL’s mission of funding student scholarships in Arkansas. Additionally, 3.9% of the overall winnings will be withheld for state taxes. The retailer who sold the winning ticket will receive a $50,000 commission.
