Overview
- The South Africa PowerBall numbers drawn on Friday, 2 October 2026 were 15, 26, 27, 28 and 39 with PowerBall 10, and the PowerBall XTRA numbers were 33, 36, 40, 41 and 42 with XTRA 04.
- The Friday jackpots were reported at about R90 million for PowerBall and R3 million for PowerBall XTRA, and news outlets say no Division 1 ticket claimed either prize so the main pot is expected to roll over for the next draw.
- Published coverage reported the rollover will lift the PowerBall jackpot to an estimated R97 million for Tuesday, 6 October and suggested PowerBall XTRA could rise to roughly R6 million for the same draw.
- Prize payouts from the Friday draw included one Division 2 ticket that matched the five main numbers and won R593,155.50, and 23 players who matched four numbers plus the PowerBall each won R12,894.60.
- Players are reminded that a PowerBall board costs R10 with PowerBall Plus an extra R5, tickets may be bought at authorised Sizekhaya retailers or online, outlets usually stop sales shortly before the 21:00 draw (reports cite around 20:30–20:40), and winners should verify results and claim details on the official National Lottery website.
