South African Lotto Help & FAQs

As well as giving lucky South Africans the chance to win some seriously jumbo jackpots, the South African lotto is best known for its fantastic odds and exhilarating additional games (Lotto+1 or Lotto+2).

When does the draw take place?

This exciting draw takes place twice a week on Wednesday and Saturday evenings. Bets close at 20:30 (South African time) and the draw takes place few minutes before 21:00.

How do I pick my numbers?

Simple! Just pick six numbers from a pool of 1 to 52.

How do I win the Jackpot?

Any of the Lotto, Lotto+1 or Lotto+2 jackpots can be won by matching all six main numbers.

What are the odds?

The prize tiers and odds for Lotto, Lotto +1 & Lotto +2 are displayed in the following table:

       
Prize tier Correct Numbers Odds Of Winning
I 6 numbers 1 in 20,358,520

V 4 numbers 1 in 1,371

What are the chances of winning the jackpot?

How does the DoubleJackpot feature work?

The DoubleJackpot feature allows you to play for twice the jackpot. For example, if the main jackpot was R15,000,000 (US$ equivalent), if you activated the DoubleJackpot feature you could potentially win R30,000,000 (US$ equivalent). The DoubleJackpot feature is also available for the Lotto+1 and Lotto+2 jackpots.

You will pay double the price of your normal bet to activate the DoubleJackpot feature.

What do I do if I win?

If your account has been verified simply proceed to your account and withdraw your winnings. If your account has not been verified you will first need to provide proof of your ID and proof of address. Once this has been confirmed you will be able to withdraw your winnings.

How will I know if I have won?

Winners will receive an e-mail confirmation. Any person who wins a sum of over US$10,000.00 will receive a phone call informing them and congratulating them on their win.

Is the payout guaranteed? How do I know?

At Lottoland we can guarantee you will be paid out on your winnings - regardless of the jackpot amount.

At Lottoland you bet on the outcome of the official draw. For all intents and purposes you will have the exact same customer experience as if you were playing the official lottery. The key difference is that we take your bet and we pay you if you win. We are able to achieve this in two ways.

For smaller prize tier payments we make the payment directly from the fund we have from the total ticket sales.

In order for us to make the larger prize tier payments we take out insurance policies to cover the eventuality of a Jackpot win or a substantial payout on the lotto ticket. Part of the Lotto ticket price you pay goes towards the payment of this policy.

We are registered with and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission, the Gibraltar Gambling Commission, and the Revenue Commissioners in Ireland. In order for us to retain these licences we have to prove that we are able to make the required payouts to our players should they win and that we have the correct procedures in place to guarantee this.

What is a subscription?

The subscription feature allows you to set up a running line or lines for a given lottery draw. Lottery subscriptions will save you time and ensure that you never miss your chance to win that big jackpot. Just select the subscription option prior to purchasing your line to set up your running line/s. You can cancel your subscription at any time.

Why should I play South African lotto?

Playing the South African lotto with Lottoland comes with loads of additional ways to play. For instance, you can Double your Jackpot, or play a system bet to boost your chances.
