How does it feel to be SA’s NEWEST Millionaire?


I am quite excited about my BIG win as it came out of nowhere. I still cannot believe it.

What was your reaction when you saw the win?


It all happened so fast! I was on a work call and I placed a bet in the background. It started with a small R70 win. I decided to activate the auto-bet feature on the game while I focused on my work. And then, out of nowhere—BOOM! My screen lit up with R1.8 Million!

Did you have a feeling that you’d win? 

Not at all! I had no idea this was coming. I wasn’t expecting anything major, especially since I was casually betting while multitasking. I’ve always enjoyed the thrill, but this completely blindsided me—in the best possible way!


Not yet! I’ve been keeping this incredible secret to myself, but I intend on telling my sister first.


I’m not quite sure yet. I want to enjoy the moment and let it sink in first before making any big plans.




Daily Ka-Ching is definitely at the top of my list! I love the rush and the possibility that you could win big at any moment. I’m also a huge fan of the ScratchCard games, especially Golf GTI and Toyota Hilux.




I just want to say a huge thank you to LottoStar! This win is truly going to change my life.

The luck of the Irish was on the side of two lucky lottery winners in Phoenix and Gilbert. The two lucky winners found the happiness of the leprechaun’s gold when they won $718,389 (over R10 Million in South Africa) Triple Twist Jackpot on Saint Patrick’s Day.

The two lucky winners matched all six numbers and will be splitting the jackpot. The winning tickets were reported to have been sold at a store in Phoenix and a Safeway in Gilbert.

However, the two tickets are still unclaimed.

The Arizona Lottery is requesting winners to check their tickets and come forward to claim their windfall.

The winning numbers from the said draw were 1, 11, 21, 24, 31, and 41.

 has a new jackpot winner. Z.M ‘cashed out’ on a whopping payout of R2 Million to become SA’s newest millionaire. Here’s what she had to say about her journey on the lucky plane:

1. How does it feel to be South Africa’s NEWEST Millionaire?


It feels like a dream. I don’t even have enough words to express myself..

2. Did you have a feeling that you'd win?


Yes. I had a feeling that I would win because Aviator is the only game I enjoy betting on and where I always win small amounts, however, I didn’t think that I would hit the jackpot.

How did you reach the x20,000 multiplier?


I just anxiously watched the multipliers increase and something told me not to cash out yet and to my surprise, I hit the jackpot.


I’m going to buy a house, pay off my debts and spoil my children.

5. Have you ever won anything before on LottoStar?


Yes, I have. I win regularly on Aviator. The highest amount I won before was R40,000.


My favourite game is Aviator. I’ve been betting on it since I joined LottoStar.


I would like to say thank you to LottoStar, you’ve really made me so happy with this R2 Million win.

8. Will you continue betting on LottoStar?


Yes, I’ll continue betting on my favourite game, Aviator. My love for it has increased.

9. Would you recommend LottoStar to your family and friends?


Definitely.

You could also be flying high with Aviator like Z.M. Bet now from a minimum of R2 for a chance to win an instant payout of up to R2 Million.

And the winner is... Liza! 

Our Mega winner is CACHE-ing out in style. 

You know how some moments are planned and some just randomly happen unexpectedly? You can prepare, practise, strategise and wait for your chance but when the moment arrives, there’s only one thing left to do – to step up.

South Africa got a reminder of that last week, when Banyana Banyana secured a hard-fought 2-1 win to keep their World Cup hopes alive. And standing tall when it mattered most was goalkeeper Kaylin Swart, who earned Woman of the Match honours after an exceptional performance between the goalposts.

This was more than a football moment. It was a very South African one - where you get the feeling of watching someone rise after they’ve fallen, take centre stage and own it while you collectively hold your breath, shouting at the screen and celebrating with every South African.

Women’s Month celebrates the women who’ve broken barriers and made space for themselves and others but it’s just as much about the everyday moments. It’s about the woman who backs herself when no one else does, who takes the lead and who tries again after a setback.

Kaylin Swart’s performance is a great example. When the pressure was on, there was no time to wonder if she was ready. She had to be, and she was – save after save. That’s what being in the moment looks like.

Isn’t that what makes a great experience memorable? The anticipation before something happens, just like how you feel before placing your bet on your favourite LottoStar games.

, every game brings its own moments of anticipation, excitement and unexpected turns. Sometimes it’s less about what’s coming next and more about being there for what you’re doing in the moment. You just never know when an ordinary moment is going to become THEE moment.

Maybe that’s the real lesson from Banyana’s latest win. You don’t always get to choose when your moment arrives but you seize it when it does. Back yourself, take the opportunity at a chance for something big, such as betting on over 800 games for a chance to win instant payouts of up to R75 Million.

That’s the kind of spirit that shows us that RSA is really our DNA.
