Lotto and Lotto Plus set at R7 million for Wednesday 24 June 2026 after recent payouts
Lotto and Lotto Plus for Wednesday 24 June 2026 will be worth R7 million after recent payouts under the new operator, Sizekhaya.
Jackpot breakdown for Wednesday 24 June 2026
The total R7 million for the midweek draws is made up of R5 million for Lotto, R1 million for Lotto Plus 1 and R1.5 million for the Lotto 5 Max.
Why the jackpots are low
Since Sizekhaya took over operations, its tiered payout system has been paying out frequently, which has kept jackpot amounts from rolling to larger totals. The operator’s mechanics have regularly reset jackpots after winners claimed prizes.
Last Saturday’s draw (20 June 2026) numbers
Saturday’s draws produced the following numbers:
- Lotto (20 June 2026): 01, 19, 20, 22, 47, 50 MP1: 32
- Lotto Plus 1 (20 June 2026): 07, 23, 32, 37, 43, 45 MP1: 50
- Lotto 5 Max (20 June 2026): 07, 09, 10, 25, 30, 39 MP1: 32

How the Lotto game works now
Under the current format players select six different numbers between 1 and 52. There is an option to choose numbers manually or use Quick Pick. Players can also select one extra number (MP1) at 7x the ticket price.
Prizes are awarded to players who match at least three of the six drawn numbers, with larger prizes for more matching numbers. Players who match all six numbers share the jackpot. The odds of matching all six are 1 in 20 358 520.
