In the same draw, another player won R217,114.10 by matching five correct numbers. However, there were no winners for the Powerball jackpot, which means the prize pool has rolled over for the 16th consecutive time, with an estimated R100 million awaiting the January 24, 2025 draw.

The Powerball jackpot has seen significant payouts in the past, with the November 2024 draw delivering an incredible R77,428,794.30 to a South African man. He expressed his disbelief when he received the call from his bank confirming the win, and he described the experience as life-changing for him and his wife.

The National Lottery Ithuba confirmed that all winnings are tax-free and are paid out within 72 hours of a valid claim. Tickets remain valid for 365 days from the draw date, and all players must be 18 years or older to participate.
