Lotto and Lotto Plus Results for August 29, 2026
Find out if you've become South Africa’s newest millionaire from the latest Lotto draws.
The Full Story
The Lotto, Lotto Plus 1, and Lotto 5 Max draws for Saturday, August 29, 2026, captured the imagination of hopeful players across South Africa, all eager for a life-changing financial windfall. The draws occur every Wednesday and Saturday at 21:00 on e.tv and SABC 2, with participants choosing six numbers from a set of numbers ranging from 1 to 52. It’s worth noting that players can opt for a Quick Pick, where random numbers are generated automatically for convenience.
In this competitive world of lotteries, the extra number option, known as MP1, can be added at seven times the ticket price, boosting a player's chances of winning. For those who match just three numbers, there are smaller prizes available, but those fortunate enough to match all six are in for the jackpot—offering odds of 1 in 20,358,520. If no one claims the jackpot, it rolls over to the next draw, creating even higher stakes for the next eagerly awaited event.
Additionally, Lotto Plus 1 and Lotto 5 Max provide added opportunities to win by paying an extra fee of R2.50 per board. Lotto 5 Max stands out with its unique payout guarantee, which allows prize money to be shared among players in lower winning tiers if the jackpot remains unclaimed after a certain number of draws. This community-focused feature highlights a commitment to inclusivity within the game.
To participate, eager players can purchase tickets at local retailers, online platforms, or through mobile apps. Importantly, winners of R50,000 and above are provided free support services, including trauma counselling and financial advisory services, ensuring that newfound wealth is accompanied by sound guidance. Each ticket is priced at R5.00, making the lottery accessible to many, while sales close at 20:40 on draw nights, urging players to plan wisely.
