South Africa PowerBall jackpot rollovers

Entities: National Lottery (South Africa) · Powerball · Sizekhaya

Overview

In late June 2026 a PowerBall draw was held in South Africa, though specific results were not reported. Over the following weeks the main PowerBall prize experienced six consecutive rollovers and the PowerBall XTRA prize seven rollovers, pushing the combined jackpot to R67 million for the 28 July draw. The new lottery operator, Sizekhaya, announced a policy to limit rollovers to no more than eight games—about a month—aiming to curb the buildup of large jackpots. Ticket pricing, entry requirements and participating banking apps were also outlined for the upcoming draw.
