Overview

  • Six winning bets will split R$ 1,091,357,286.52, which comes to about R$ 182 million per ticket.
  • The three winners who played via Caixa’s electronic channels in Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo have already requested payment.
  • Group tickets from physical outlets advanced their claims: all 10 shares from Ponta Porã (MS) have presented and 12 of 18 shares from Franco da Rocha (SP) have filed.
  • The outstanding claim is the ticket bought at a physical outlet in João Pessoa (PB), which had not been presented for withdrawal.
  • For prizes of R$ 10,000 or more, Caixa pays out only after a minimum of two business days from submission, and any amount not claimed within 90 days is transferred to the National Treasury for allocation to Fies.
