SA Lotto Results & Payouts for Wednesday, 3 June 2026

Compare the numbers on your physical or online ticket against the winning numbers: 5, 8, 19, 30, 44, 46 (Bonus Ball: 13). The SA Lotto uses a 6/52 format — players choose 6 numbers from 1 to 52, and prizes are awarded across 8 divisions based on how many numbers match.

The odds of winning in each division are fixed by the mathematics of the 6/52 game and stay the same for every draw, regardless of past results. The table below shows the approximate odds per board.

Overall, the chance of winning any SA Lotto prize is approximately 1 in 35. Prize amounts in most divisions are not fixed — they depend on total ticket sales and the number of winners — which is why the payout table above is the accurate figure for the 3 June 2026 draw.

On Wednesday, 3 June 2026, the South African National Lottery 6/52 draw produced the winning combination 5, 8, 19, 30, 44, 46 with Bonus Ball 13. The six main balls sum to 152, with an odd/even split of 2/4 and a high/low split of 3/3 (using 27–52 as the high range in this 52-ball pool).

Consecutive Repeat note: The number 46 also appeared in the immediately preceding draw. Because every draw is a fully independent random event, repeats like this are a normal product of chance rather than a predictable pattern.

With no Division 1 winner, the jackpot rolls over and the prize pool accumulates for the next scheduled draw. Across all eight divisions, 53,183 winners shared R 3,252,332.50 in total prize money.

The South African Lotto is the country's flagship jackpot game, run by Ithuba on behalf of the National Lottery. It is drawn twice a week — every Wednesday and Saturday at 20:56 SAST — and is known for large, rolling jackpots that grow whenever no one matches all six numbers.

Playing in four simple steps

• Choose 6 numbers from 1 to 52, or select a Quick Pick to have them generated randomly.
• Pay R5 per board. You can play several boards and enter multiple consecutive draws on one ticket.
• Optionally add Lotto Plus 1 and Lotto Plus 2 for an extra R2.50 each — two bonus draws using the same numbers.
• Keep your ticket safe — it is your proof of purchase and is required to claim any prize.

A seventh ball, the Bonus Ball, is drawn after the six main numbers. You don't pick it yourself; it only comes into play for certain divisions (such as Division 2) to determine those prizes. You must be 18 or older to buy a ticket or claim a prize.

If you're holding a winning ticket, sign the back and keep it safe. You have 365 days from the draw date to claim before the prize is forfeited to the National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund for good causes.

• Smaller prizes can typically be collected in cash at any licensed lottery retailer.
• Mid-tier prizes are usually paid via a designated outlet, the Post Office, or directly into your bank account.
• Large prizes are claimed at an Ithuba regional office, often by appointment, with your ID and banking details. Major winners are also offered free financial and legal guidance.
• Online players usually have winnings credited automatically to their National Lottery wallet or bank account.

Claim thresholds and procedures can change, so always confirm the current rules and verify your numbers on the official National Lottery website before making a claim.
