CLIVE, Iowa — Less than one week remains for someone to claim a $50,000 Powerball® prize won in Bettendorf, and the Iowa Lottery is reminding players to double-check their tickets.
The $50,000-winning ticket was purchased at Kwik Star, 2283 53rd Ave. in Bettendorf. The prize will expire on Jan. 27 if it is not claimed by the deadline.
The ticket matched four white balls and the Powerball to win the $50,000 prize in the July 29 drawing. The winning numbers that night were: 11-27-30-33-44 and Powerball 16.
The prize can be claimed at any Iowa Lottery office. Prize-claim hours at lottery offices are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday-Friday, with offices closed on state holidays.
Anyone with questions about how to claim an Iowa Lottery prize is welcome to contact the lottery at 515-725-7900 or wmaster@ialottery.com.
Players in Iowa have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim Powerball prizes. If a prize expiration date falls on a weekend or holiday when lottery offices are closed, the winner has until the close of business on the next business day to turn in the ticket.
In the last fiscal year (FY 2024), nearly $5 million in lotto and InstaPlay prizes expired in Iowa without being claimed.
The money from lottery prizes that expire in Iowa without being claimed goes into the lottery's prize pools for future games and promotions, so it will be used to pay prizes, just not those prizes that have expired.
