R20-million PENDING in Lotto and Lotto Plus on Wednesday 8 July 2026

Take note that Lotto and Lotto Plus on Wednesday 8 July 2026 is worth just over R20 million this week. Ever since new operator Sizekhaya took over, its new tiered payout system has been paying out with regularity. For example, it made three R45-million winners in last week’s PowerBall XTRA.

This was followed by another PowerBall win outright – R72 million – in the very next draw on Friday 3 July 2026. As such, this frequency of wins is keeping lotto jackpots tempered. Therefore, this week’s next roll is worth just over R20 million for Lotto and Lotto Plus on Wednesday 8 July 2026. It will be made up from R14 million for Lotto, R4 million for Lotto Plus 1 and R2.5 for the Lotto Max 5 …

R20-MILLION LOTTO AND LOTTO PLUS ON WEDNESDAY 8 JULY 2026
