One lucky South African has become R112 million richer after winning the PowerBall jackpot in the Tuesday, 13 October 2026 draw.

The winning ticket was purchased at OK Foods Meyerton, with the player emerging as the sole jackpot winner in PowerBall draw number 1763.

Meyerton is a small industrial and residential town located 18km north of Vereeniging in Gauteng.

Lucky numbers

The five numbers drawn were 3, 15, 24, 30, 31 while the PowerBall bonus ball – which is also required in winning the jackpot – was 7.

The National Lottery operator has congratulated the winner and urged them to come forward to claim the life-changing prize.

“We congratulate our latest PowerBall jackpot winner on this extraordinary win. Winning R112-million is a life-changing moment, and we look forward to welcoming the winner when they come forward to claim their prize,” said Kgothatso “KG” Mashile, Head of Marketing at Sizekhaya Holdings.

Advice for R112 million PowerBall winner

Mashile encouraged the winner to complete their personal details on the back of the physical ticket immediately and keep it in a safe place.

Taking these precautions is an important step in protecting the winning ticket while preparing to claim the jackpot.

Once the winner comes forward, they will have access to free and confidential professional counselling and financial guidance through Sizekhaya Holdings.

The support is intended to help the winner prepare for the significant changes that come with receiving such a large amount of money and make informed decisions about their financial future.

“An extraordinary win like this brings incredible possibilities, but it is important for the winner to approach this new chapter with care and make informed decisions that will help secure their future,” Mashile added.

A life-changing lottery win

The R112 million jackpot represents an extraordinary financial windfall for the unidentified winner.

However, the lottery operator has stressed the importance of approaching the prize responsibly, with professional guidance available to help the winner navigate their new circumstances.

For now, the identity of the Meyerton ticket holder remains unknown as the winner has yet to come forward to claim the prize.
