South Africa, we have a new millionaire! A lucky winner has just claimed a massive R8.4 million in the Lotto Plus jackpot from the March 5, 2025 draw.

According to National Lottery Ithuba, the winner’s golden ticket was a R10 Quick Pick, purchased through a banking app.

“It just goes to show that dreams do come true, and sometimes all it takes is a R10 ticket and a sprinkle of luck,” said Ithuba CEO Charmaine Mabuza, celebrating the latest big win.

With multiple Lotto winners in recent weeks, it’s clear that luck is in the air.

Ithuba urges all players who bought tickets via banking apps to check their notifications.

Who knows, the next millionaire could be reading this right now.

Important reminder for winners:

  • You have 365 days from the draw date to claim your prize.

  • Once a valid claim is made, winnings are paid out within 72 hours.

  • Best of all? Every cent of your winnings is tax free.

Feeling lucky? The next jackpot could be yours.
