Strike Four has rolled over tonight and will be $400,000 on Saturday.
Last Saturday’s Lotto wins
Last Saturday, three players from Kerikeri, Palmerston North and Timaru respectively walked away with newfound riches, each winning $333,333 in Lotto First Division.
Lotto said the winning tickets were sold at Woolworths Kerikeri, and on MyLotto to players from Palmerston North and Timaru.
A Strike player also struck it rich after winning $200,000 with Strike Four.
That ticket was sold at Four Square Cloverlea in Palmerston North.
Powerball wins in 2025
New Zealand has had nine major Powerball wins across the country this year.
In January, a Wellington Lotto player won $7m and a Taranaki player pocketed $8.3m in the same month.
A Hamilton player and a Waihī player each picked up $10.5m from Powerball wins in February.
There were three lucky Powerball multimillionaires in March, with wins in Christchurch, Dunedin and Port Chalmers.
An Auckland couple were in a celebratory mood after winning more than $23m in a draw last month.
Last month a Porirua grandmother won a life-changing $17.2m with Lotto Powerball.
The woman was walking with her grandson when she decided to stop at the Whitby New World to buy her ticket for that night’s draw.
“It was purely because I was out with him that I remembered to get my ticket that day – he’s the reason I stopped and bought it.
“He’s too young to understand, but I’ve told him every day since that I love him 17.2 million times.”
It made her the ninth Powerball multimillionaire this year.
What to do if you win
Ticket holders can see immediately if they have won if they purchased a ticket through MyLotto. Prizes of $1000 or less are automatically credited to the account.
For prizes of more than $1000, winners have to fill in an online prize form.
Winners with a physical ticket must still visit a Lotto retailer to claim their prize.
For the Powerball jackpot to be claimed, a ticket holder must get all six Lotto numbers correct as well as the added Powerball number.
