The winning numbers were 13, 4, 40, 33, 9, and 15. The Bonus ball was 1 and the Powerball was 4.
Four tickets were sold to players from Auckland, one from Waikato, one from the Coromandel,one from Hawke’s Bay, one from Taranaki, one from the Kāpiti Coast and one from Wellington.
In the South Island, one ticket was sold to a player from Christchurch and one from Dunedin.
Another player from Christchurch also took home half a million from First Division after buying their ticket at Hornby Mall Lotto.
Lotto NZ said anyone who bought their ticket there or on MyLotto “should check their ticket as soon as possible”.
The Ōpōtiki player becomes New Zealand’s fourteenth Powerball multi-millionaire of 2025.
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.
