Always check your ticket before leaving the store.

Missouri doesn't currently allow online lottery purchases. You'll need to visit an authorized retailer in person to buy Pick 4 tickets. This keeps all purchases secure and ensures proper age verification. Some players use courier services from other states, but you must be physically present in that state to purchase. For now, buying at retail locations remains the only legal option for Missouri residents.

Odds in Pick 4 depend on which play type you choose. Straight play (exact order) has odds of 1 in 10,000, while Box play (any order) offers better odds depending on your number combination. Want better odds? Choose Box or Front/Back Pair. Want bigger prizes? Go with Straight or Combo. The beauty of Pick 4 is you control the risk-reward balance.

Pick 4 has 22 main play types: Straight (Exact Order), Box 4-Way (Any Order), Box 6-Way (Any Order), Box 12-Way (Any Order), Box 24-Way (Any Order), Straight/Box 4-Way – Exact Order, Straight/Box 4-Way – Any Order, Straight/Box 6-Way – Exact Order, Straight/Box 6-Way – Any Order, Straight/Box 12-Way – Exact Order, Straight/Box 12-Way – Any Order, Straight/Box 24-Way – Exact Order, Straight/Box 24-Way – Any Order, Front 3, Back 3, Front Pair, Middle Pair, Back Pair, Combo 4-Way ($4), Combo 6-Way ($6), Combo 12-Way ($12), Combo 24-Way ($24). Each works differently. Straight means exact order, pick 1-2-3, and only 1-2-3 wins. Odds: 1 in 10,000. Box matches any order, 1-2-3 wins as 3-2-1, 2-1-3, etc. Better odds, smaller prize. Combo plays every possible order as separate Straight bets for maximum coverage, higher cost. You can mix multiple play types on one ticket. Many players do a small Box wager plus a larger Straight bet on their favorite number.

Wild Ball is an optional add-on that costs an extra $1.00 per play. It multiplies your non-jackpot winnings by 2x to 10x. The multiplier number is drawn separately right after the main drawing. Here's the catch: it doesn't multiply the jackpot. But for lower prize tiers, Wild Ball can significantly boost your winnings, potentially multiplying them by up to 10x. That's a significant boost. You decide whether to add Wild Ball when buying your ticket. Can't add it later.

Pick 4 is exclusive to Missouri. You'll need to be physically present in Missouri to buy tickets, either at a retail location or through a licensed courier service while you're in-state.
