Interest is growing for the biggest PowerBall jackpot thus far for 2020. On Tuesday, 21 April 2020, it could land someone a staggering combined R218 million with the PowerBall and PowerBall PLUS jackpots estimated at R123 million and R95 million respectively.

In a matter of days lottery managers Ithuba, say some 42,000 new players registered to play on their app, which they say is now more important than ever to encourage players to play online rather than going to stores to purchase tickets.

But, should you win you’ll also only be able to claim the prize winnings once lockdown is officially over as the Ithuba offices remain closed during the lockdown period. But while winners may be anxious to collect, all winning tickets have a life-span of 365 days before they expire.

Ithuba has been attempting to migrate its players to digital platforms since before the national lockdown. You can play the lottery online through its app, website and via banking partners Absa, FNB, Standard Bank and Nedbank.

Over the past three years, there has been a total of 20 national lottery jackpot winners who played via FNB's digital banking platforms. The function has been available on the FNB app since 2012.

While some would question whether gambling is an essential service, in the absence of live sports, South Africans are turning to betting on esports and sports simulations.

Part of the money which is generated from the national lottery does go toward fighting Covid-19. R50 million has been directed to the Solidarity Fund by the National Lotteries Commission, that regulates lotteries in South Africa and serves as the lottery grant funder.

The biggest PowerBall jackpot thus far for 2020 was won in February by a single player in Roodepoort who walked away with R114 million after spending R5 on the winning ticket.
