Two more National Lottery millionaires have claimed their prizes
Sizekhaya is on the hunt to find the winners of unclaimed prize jackpots!
In a recent development, two more National Lottery players have stepped forward to claim their winnings, adding to the total of over R24.8 million in previously unclaimed prizes. The most recent claims include a R23 555 348.50 Lotto jackpot and a R1 332 944.90 Lotto 5 Max prize. Sizekhaya Holdings, the National Lottery operator, emphasizes the importance of players checking their tickets and the ongoing efforts to locate winners of unclaimed prizes.
The R23 555 348.50 win, awarded in draw 2654 on June 13, 2026, was the first Lotto jackpot winner since Sizekhaya took over National Lottery operations on June 1. The winner, who faced significant financial hardship, was initially skeptical about the win, finding it hard to believe that they had won R23 million. The R1 332 944.90 prize was claimed in division 2 of draw 2667 on July 29, 2026.
Whitney Mafatle, winner service manager at Sizekhaya, expressed hope in these two winners coming forward, highlighting the potential life-changing impact of unclaimed prizes. Sizekhaya continues to urge players to check their tickets, including past draws, and claims assistance for winners, including free professional counseling and financial guidance.
