PowerBall — History and Summary

PowerBall has been one of South Africa's most famous lotteries since it started in 2009. It is known for its huge jackpots and life-changing prizes. This page is all about the history of results, where you can look up past winning numbers, check old tickets, and see how the game has changed over the years.

Players must choose five main numbers from a pool of 1 to 50. Participants must also pick one PowerBall number between 1 and 20. The two-number system makes it possible to win in more than one way and at more than one level. The price for a standard entry is ZAR 5.00 per ticket. PowerBall PLUS is an extra ZAR 2.50 that players can add to their tickets for more chances. This improvement puts the same numbers into a different draw, giving players a chance to win more cash prizes in addition to the main game.

Choosing numbers gives you options. You have full control over the digits you choose when you select them manually. Quick Pick gives you randomly generated combinations if you like to enter without thinking about it. System Entry, which you can find on some Lottery Agent websites, increases your chances of winning by covering a lot of different number combinations.

Over the years, PowerBall has produced some of South Africa's biggest-ever lottery jackpots. A few notable milestones include:

The ZAR 232 million jackpot from February 2019 still holds the record as the largest prize ever awarded in the country. On average, PowerBall jackpots reach more than ZAR 22 million, making it the most lucrative game in South Africa.
