ITHUBA, the proud operator of the South African National Lottery, is thrilled to announce that the lucky participant has officially come forward to claim the R100 million LOTTO jackpot. This win, which occurred during draw number 2461 on Saturday, 3 August, marks the second-largest jackpot in the history of the game.

The R100 million jackpot, a result of 25 consecutive rollovers, has captivated the nation and sparked excitement among participants. This significant win comes just five years after the historic R110 million jackpot was shared by four participants in 2018.

Commenting on the latest winner, Charmaine Mabuza, CEO of ITHUBA, said, “We are overjoyed to celebrate this monumental win with our latest jackpot winner, especially during Women’s Month. The R100 million LOTTO jackpot is a life-changing amount, and it is a testament to the excitement and opportunities that the South African National Lottery brings to participants across the country.”

The lucky winner, who has chosen to remain anonymous, has expressed her immense gratitude and excitement.

“We are proud of the role the National Lottery plays in changing lives for the better, not only for our winners but for the broader community as well,” added Mabuza. “This latest win is another reminder of the excitement and possibilities that the LOTTO brings.”

ITHUBA encourages all participants to check their tickets and stay tuned for more opportunities to win life-changing amounts in upcoming draws. ITHUBA provides all winners of R50,000 and above with trauma counselling and financial advice, ensuring that they receive their tax-free pay-outs within 72 hours of a valid claim.
