Durban: The PowerBall combined estimated jackpot for tonight’s draw is R111 million.
National lottery operator Ithuba said Powerball was estimated at R97 million and PowerBall Plus R14 million
Ithuba said the national lottery had created more than 53 million winners across all games since the beginning of 2021 and had paid out R1.6 billion total winnings.
Chief executive Charmaine Mabuza said: “We are excited to be offering yet another life-changing jackpot to our players. As South Africa is currently placed under lockdown level 4, we urge players to utilise the National Lottery digital platforms.”
Ithuba said it offered free financial advice and trauma counselling to winners of R50 000 and above, at no cost to the winner.
This week, a security guard living in Orange Farm in Gauteng bagged R11m in Powerball.
The father of three came forward to claim his winnings from the June 15 draw.
He used R15 to buy a quick pick.
