R113 million PowerBall jackpot up for grabs – Will you be South Africa’s next millionaire?
A whopping estimated R113 million PowerBall jackpot is up for grabs on Friday.
According to National Lottery Ithuba, the jackpot has rolled over 19 times.
Since June 1, 2025, Ithuba said it has paid out over half a billion in total winnings to more than 17.7 million players.
It added that seven players became multi-millionaires.
Among the recent big winners is a Cape Town mother who scooped a Lotto Plus 1 jackpot of over R30 million in the draw held on Saturday, 25 July.
“The first thing I’m doing is getting my daughter a car,” she said. “She relies heavily on e-hailing services to get to work, and that worries me. I want her to travel safely and independently.”
Speaking about the jackpot prize, Ithuba CEO Charmaine Mabuza said: “This is what the National Lottery is all about – changing lives, creating opportunities, and giving people a reason to dream again.”
Ticket sales for the R113 million PowerBall draw will close at 20:30pm on Friday, 01 August 2025.
Players must be 18 years or older. All winnings are tax-free. Tickets are valid for 365 days from the date of draw.
