Life-changing R31 million Lotto jackpot up for grabs tonight

Don't miss out on the chance to become SA's next multimillionaire! A massive R31 million Lotto jackpot is up for grabs tonight.


There’s a buzz of excitement rippling through South Africa as the estimated total value of the upcoming Lotto jackpot today measures in the millions.

As the jackpots continue to grow, one can’t help but dream of what could be if that lucky ticket happens to be theirs.

R31 million Lotto jackpot

While the prize money isn’t guaranteed, Ithuba said the estimated total of tonight’s progressive Lotto jackpot stands at R31 million.

This sum could drastically change the life of the lucky ticket holder, making dreams come true overnight.

Although, not everyone tends to get caught up in the multi-millionaire fever.

The winner of the recent Powerball jackpot nabbed a cool R40 million but decided to carry on working!

The Cape Town man must really, really love his job in the finance sector.

Next PowerBall jackpot

And speaking of Powerball jackpots, there’s another, somewhat smaller draw coming up.

The National Lottery ramps up the anticipation further with the impending Powerball draws scheduled for 26 May.

With R13 million at stake in the Powerball draw and an additional R8 million in the PowerBall Plus draw, the prospects of becoming South Africa’s next multimillionaire are more tantalising than ever.

Despite no lucky winners in the latest draw on 23 May, the rollovers merely add to the building suspense.

With such life-changing sums on the line, South Africa is abuzz with Lotto fever.

Daily Lotto jackpots

But let’s not discount the smaller jackpots so often overlooked. And this is where the Daily Lotto truly shines.

Three fortunate winners recently collected their considerable winnings from the National Lottery’s Ithuba offices.

The first winner walked away with an impressive R206 460.20 in the draw of 17 May, while the second winner bagged R85 026.50 on 18 May.

A third player scooped up a sweet R101 174.40 on 20 May.
