LOTTO Jackpot Soars to $734,000

Natural State Jackpot Continues to Climb, Hits $610,000 for Friday Draw

Jan. 30, 2026

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Arkansas lottery players could end the month with a big win from the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery’s (ASL) in-state draw games.

Saturday night’s LOTTO jackpot is $734,000. Played and won only in Arkansas, LOTTO was designed to give players a chance to win bigger prizes. The game has seen five jackpot winners since its launch in 2022, as well as a total of $12,025,168 paid out from the ASL Claim Center.

LOTTO drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $2 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 8:59 p.m. on draw nights.

Six numbers between 1 and 40 and a Bonus Number are drawn. A player must match the first six numbers drawn, in any order, to win the jackpot. Players who match three or more numbers, with or without the Bonus Number, can win prizes up to $25,000.

Once the LOTTO jackpot is won, it will reset to $250,000.

The Natural State Jackpot (NSJ) is $610,000 for tonight’s drawing. Since its transition to daily draws in April 2024, NSJ has had 20 jackpot winners, including a $550,000 winner from Hackett.

NSJ drawings are held daily at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $1 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 7:59 p.m. To win the jackpot, a player must match all five numbers drawn.

Until Feb. 28, players can purchase LOTTO and NSJ tickets as part of ASL’s limited-time 5-Buck Bundle promotion. Players can ask for the 5-Buck Bundle at any in-person lottery retailer and receive a $3 Powerball® ticket with Power Play, a $2 LOTTO ticket, and a free NSJ ticket for just $5. All tickets must be quick picks.

Players can also order LOTTO and NSJ tickets through licensed lottery retailer apps from ASL’s Play on the Go partners.
