About the South African National Lottery

The National Lottery is operated by Sizekhaya Holdings (RF) (Pty) Ltd under the Fourth National Lottery Licence, issued in terms of the Lotteries Act, 1997. Sizekhaya took over from the previous operator on 1 June 2026 and is regulated by the National Lotteries Commission. Every draw is independently audited, and the results published on this page are sourced from the official National Lottery data feed. Always verify your numbers against your physical or electronic ticket before taking any action.

Lotto Results: How the Main Draw Works

Lotto is the longest-running and most widely played National Lottery game. Players pick six numbers from 1 to 52. Seven numbers are drawn in total: six main numbers and a Bonus Ball. The Bonus Ball is the seventh number drawn and it determines who wins Divisions 2, 4, 6, and 7. Lotto draws twice a week, every Wednesday and Saturday at 21:00.

A single Lotto board costs R5.00 including VAT. When you buy a Lotto ticket you can also add Lotto Plus 1 for R2.50 and Lotto 5 Max for a further R2.50. These add-on games use the same six numbers and enter them into their own separate draws that run immediately after the main Lotto draw. You need to play Lotto to enter Lotto Plus 1, and you need both Lotto and Lotto Plus 1 before you can add Lotto 5 Max.

Lotto Prize Divisions

There are eight ways to win a Lotto prize. You need to match at least two main numbers plus the Bonus Ball to qualify for the lowest division. The top three divisions are pari-mutuel, meaning the prize amount depends on how many tickets were sold and how many people are sharing that division on the night. Divisions 4 through 8 pay fixed guaranteed amounts every draw regardless of how many winners there are.

What Happens When Nobody Wins the Jackpot?

If Division 1 is not won, the jackpot rolls over to the next draw and keeps building until someone claims it. The largest Lotto jackpots in South African history have grown through long rollover streaks. If Division 2 goes unclaimed, its pool drops down to Division 3. If Division 3 also has no winners, that amount is added to Division 1 in the following draw.

Lotto 5 Max has a slightly different end-of-month rule. If the jackpot has not been won by the last draw of the calendar month, it cascades down through Division 2 and Division 3 before any amount rolls forward to the next draw. The rollover count and estimated next jackpot for each game are shown in the results widget at the top of this page.

Daily Lotto Results: Every Night at 21:00

Daily Lotto draws every single night at 21:00, making it the most frequent source of latest lotto results on this page. It is a simpler game than the main Lotto draw: five numbers from a pool of 36, no Bonus Ball, and a ticket price of just R3.00 including VAT. Because it runs nightly, the jackpots do not build to the same size as Lotto or PowerBall, but the odds of winning any prize are considerably shorter.

On nights with low ticket sales the prize pool is smaller, but the payout per winner can be generous if few people share a division. The Daily Lotto summary card above shows the most recent draw result, total ticket sales, and the prize pool for that draw.

PowerBall Results: South Africa's Biggest Jackpots

PowerBall is where South Africa's largest National Lottery jackpots are found. It is a double-matrix game: five main numbers from 1 to 50, plus one PowerBall number from a separate range of 1 to 16. Both parts of the combination need to match the draw result to win Division 1. PowerBall draws on Tuesday and Friday evenings at 21:00, and because the odds of hitting the jackpot are longer than in Lotto, the top prize tends to roll over more often and reach much higher values.

A PowerBall board costs R10.00 including VAT. PowerBall Xtra is an optional add-on for R5.00 that enters the same combination into a parallel draw with its own prize pool. You have to play PowerBall first before you can add PowerBall Xtra.

Unclaimed PowerBall jackpots roll over draw to draw the same way Lotto does. PowerBall Xtra applies the same end-of-month cascade rule as Lotto 5 Max: in the final draw of the month, an unclaimed jackpot cascades through the lower divisions before any remaining amount rolls forward.

How to Buy a National Lottery Ticket

All six games are available at authorised National Lottery retailers across South Africa and online at nationallottery.co.za or via the official National Lottery app. At a retailer you fill in a paper coupon, tell the cashier your numbers, or ask for a Quick Pick and let the terminal generate your numbers randomly. Online you do the same thing digitally. Your entry only counts once it has been recorded on Sizekhaya's central system and a ticket has been issued. An entry that did not generate a ticket is not a valid entry.

Quick Pick for multiple boards lets you generate up to 20 random sets of numbers in a single transaction. Multi-Draw enters the same numbers into between 2 and 10 consecutive draws on one ticket. Multi-Play lets you add one or two extra numbers to your standard selection, and the system automatically creates every possible combination from your expanded set, with each combination counting as a separate entry into the same draw.

You must be 18 or older to play any National Lottery game. The maximum spend across all games in a single day is R2,000 per person.

How to Claim a National Lottery Prize

You have 365 days from the draw date to claim. Any prize not claimed by 23:00 on that 365th day is forfeited and will not be paid out, so check your tickets regularly and do not leave old tickets sitting around unchecked.

How you claim depends on the prize amount. Prizes up to R2,000 can be paid out at any authorised National Lottery retailer, provided the retailer has enough cash on hand. Prizes between R2,001 and R49,999 must go through an authorised Prize Payment Centre. Anything R50,000 and above must be claimed directly through a Sizekhaya office. If you played online or through the app, prizes within the platform's approved limits can be paid into your registered account without visiting a retailer. A Prize Claim Form is required for prizes of R50,000 and above.

Prizes are always paid in South African Rand by cash, cheque, or electronic transfer. They are never paid in goods or services. If Sizekhaya needs to investigate a disputed claim, payment can be held for up to 365 days during that process.
