Overview
- The PowerBall draw produced the main numbers 15, 26, 27, 28 and 39 with PowerBall 10 in the draw that took place on Friday, 2 October 2026 at 21:00.
- The supplementary PowerBall Xtra numbers were 33, 36, 40, 41 and 42 with Xtra 04 and the advertised jackpots were about R90 million for PowerBall and roughly R3 million for PowerBall Xtra.
- A single PowerBall board costs R10 including VAT and optional add-ons such as PowerBall Plus or Xtra carry extra fees; retail, web and app sales typically close around 20:30–20:40 on draw nights.
- Media outlets and the National Lottery urged players to check the official National Lottery website to verify winning numbers and to confirm final prize amounts because payouts depend on ticket validation and official reconciliation.
- The R90 million total came after previous draws produced no Division 1 winner so the guaranteed jackpot rolled over, and that rollovers will affect how many winners share the prize when ticket checks are completed.
