Powerball Jackpot History

How to Claim Your SA Powerball Winnings

The South Africa Powerball is a popular lottery game that starts with a jackpot of ZAR 3 million and grows at every draw if there hasn’t been a winner. Knowing how to claim your lottery-winning prizes for the SA Powerball is important especially if you’re playing outside of the country.

If you played the game in South Africa, there are three ways to claim your prize:

  • Through a participating retailer: You’ll need to submit your signed winning ticket in order to claim your prize.
  • On your online account: Prizes won online will be paid into your account.
  • Through the post: Your winning signed ticket and completed Prize Claim Form can be sent to the National Lottery office through the post.

However, not all prizes are paid out at retailers, through the post, or into your online wallet. Higher payouts need to be collected in person.

Claim Method ZAR50 – ZAR5,000 Up to ZAR 49,999 Over ZAR50,000

If you’re playing SA Powerball through an online lottery agent site, payouts are handled differently. Reading the site’s terms and conditions will inform you of how winnings may be claimed and paid.

The 24Lottos platform is a user-friendly lottery site and allows you to play SA Powerball from anywhere in the world. Smaller amounts are paid directly into your online wallet.

However, if you win the jackpot you’ll be contacted by the winners’ support team who’ll advise on how to proceed with claiming your mega millions prize! No commission is charged on winnings. 

Another popular online platform for playing South Africa Powerball is theLotter site. It’s 100% from prize commissions and you have five withdrawal options to pick from that allow you to claim winnings up to $50,000.

Smaller winnings are paid directly into your online account but larger prizes including the jackpot may need to be collected in person. South African lottery winnings are paid out tax-free! 

If you’re wondering how to avoid taxes on lottery winnings in another country, be aware that some governments automatically deduct tax before you receive your prize money!
