The PowerBall
The PowerBall requires players to choose five primary numbers from a pool of 50 and one ‘PowerBall’ number between 1 and 20 for R5.00 per board. The record for the highest reward in South African lottery history was won in this game on February 19, 2019, and the draw is held every Tuesday and Friday.
Powerball Plus
PowerBall Plus, a near-identical variant of the original game, gives players a second chance to scoop the jackpot. This game was introduced by the National Lottery of South Africa on November 28, 2015, and it costs an additional R2.50 for each board to enter the draw. Even while the payouts aren’t as large, the chances of success still make it a good bet.
Availability of Tickets and Drawing Schedules
At 20:58 tonight, the PowerBall and PowerBall Plus drawings will begin. Make sure you have your lottery tickets before the actual stores close at 20:30 on the day of the draw if you plan on buying them there. Online platforms provide a versatile option for tech-savvy players, allowing for last-minute purchasing.
Extra Benefits to Sweeten the Deal
It’s interesting to note that lottery winners receive more than just a money windfall. In addition to free trauma counselling from licensed psychologists and financial help from certified advisors, winners who claim more than R50,000 receive these services at no cost. In addition, the winners have their prize money deposited into their accounts without having to pay any taxes on it.
