An FNB player has won the fourth-highest LOTTO jackpot, of over R74 million from the Wednesday, 23 November draw, and is encouraged to go to their nearest ITHUBA office to process their winnings.  This is indeed exciting, as in October a Mpumalanga businessman also won the LOTTO PLUS 1 jackpot from playing on the FNB App.

Since 2015, ITHUBA has been offering life-changing jackpots to players from all walks of life, who play across our digital and retail platforms. All draws are governed by strict processes and procedures that are approved by the regulator and audited at every step by independent auditors. The current Lottery systems are computerised, and collate winning numbers and results after a draw has taken place.  In the spirit of transparency, the National Lottery Operator has always honoured the obligation of supplying our players with valid information concerning all winning tickets, regardless of where they were purchased.

“When players play via a banking App, they are first contacted by their bank to notify them of their winnings.  The winner will receive their winnings tax-free between 48 to 72 hours from the time of claiming.  A team of financial advisors are on standby to offer advice on a series of investment opportunities.  The player will also be offered trauma counseling by a team of psychologists,” Charmaine Mabuza.

Players must be 18 years and older.

ITHUBA is the proud operator of the National Lottery.
