International lottery jackpot rollovers

Overview

Major lottery jackpots in Canada, South Africa, and Switzerland have experienced multiple rollovers after no top-tier winners were identified in recent draws.

In late September 2026, South Africa’s PowerBall and PowerBall Xtra jackpots rolled over, creating a combined pool exceeding R79 million. Simultaneously, Canada’s Lotto Max jackpot of $60 million failed to produce a winner, set to increase to $65 million for the following draw.

By late October 2026, similar trends continued. The Swiss Loto jackpot rolled over to CHF38.8 million, while Canada’s Lotto Max jackpot of $20 million also remained unclaimed, with the prize pool projected to reach $25 million for the next drawing.
