How to Play PowerBall — and What PowerBall Plus Adds
PowerBall is South Africa's biggest-jackpot lottery game, drawn every Tuesday and Friday evening. Here is how a board works:
- Pick 5 main numbers from 1–50, plus 1 PowerBall from a separate pool of 1–20 (or take a quick pick). A board costs R5.00.
- Add PowerBall Plus for R2.50 more — your same numbers enter a second, completely independent draw held straight after the main one, with its own machine and its own jackpot. Plus cannot be played on its own.
- Play PowerBall online via the official National Lottery website and app, through participating banks, or at any authorised Ithuba retailer. Sales close around 20:30 on draw nights, ahead of the 21:00 PowerBall draw time.
- Sign the back of a physical ticket immediately — it is a bearer document — and check your numbers after every draw. Prizes expire after 365 days, and winnings are tax-free.
PowerBall Prize Divisions & Odds
The dual-drum format means the jackpot requires beating two independent draws at once — matching all 5 main balls (C(50,5) = 2,118,760 combinations) and the PowerBall (×20), for 42,375,200 total combinations. Every board has exactly the same chance.
| Division | Match | Odds (1 in…) |
|---|---|---|
| Division 1 (Jackpot) | 5 + PowerBall | 42,375,200 |
| Division 2 | 5 (no PB) | 2,230,274 |
| Division 3 | 4 + PowerBall | 188,334 |
| Division 4 | 4 (no PB) | 9,912 |
| Division 5 | 3 + PowerBall | 4,280 |
| Division 6 | 3 (no PB) | 225 |
| Division 7 | 2 + PowerBall | 299 |
| Division 8 | 1 + PowerBall | 57 |
| Division 9 | PowerBall only | 35 |
Overall odds of winning any prize are roughly 1 in 18 per board — mostly thanks to Division 9 (match the PowerBall alone, R10). PowerBall Plus uses the identical format, so its odds are the same. For the full head-to-head with Lotto, see PowerBall vs Lotto odds.
PowerBall vs Daily Lotto — Bigger Jackpots, Longer Odds
| Feature | ⚡ PowerBall | 📅 Daily Lotto |
|---|---|---|
| Draw days | Tuesday & Friday | Every day (exc. 25 Dec) |
| Jackpot odds | 1 in 42,375,200 | 1 in 376,992 |
| Typical jackpot | Tens of millions; record R232m | Usually R50k–R500k, shared |
| Jackpot type | Rolls over until won | Pari-mutuel, shared daily |
| Any-prize odds | ~1 in 18 | ~1 in 8 |
| Add-on game | PowerBall Plus (+R2.50) | None |
In short: PowerBall is the game for the life-changing-jackpot dream at much longer odds; Daily Lotto offers far friendlier odds for a far smaller prize. See our Daily Lotto next jackpot page for tonight's estimate on that side.
Record PowerBall Jackpots in South Africa
The biggest prize in SA lottery history is the R232,131,750 PowerBall jackpot won in February 2019 by a single ticket. Rollovers regularly push the estimated PowerBall jackpot amount past R50–R100 million, which is why the game dominates South African lottery headlines. Remember: a record-sized jackpot changes the prize, not the 1-in-42.4-million odds.
Smart-Play Tips Before the Next PowerBall Draw
Nothing can improve your odds of winning PowerBall — no strategy, system or statistic. These habits simply protect your money and your ticket:
- Set a fixed budget per week or month and treat it as entertainment spending. Never increase it chasing a rollover — the odds stay identical whatever the jackpot.
- Spread numbers across the full 1–50 range if you self-pick. It won't change your chances, but avoiding popular birthday-only patterns can reduce prize-sharing if you ever won. Our PowerBall number generator does this instantly.
- Curious about frequency? The PowerBall hot & cold numbers show which balls have appeared most in past draws — a historical record only, never a forecast.
- Check every ticket, main and Plus. With ~1-in-18 any-prize odds, small wins are common. Use the ticket checker after every draw you enter.
- Sign your ticket and keep it safe — you have 365 days to claim, and large wins are paid tax-free through Ithuba's claims process.
