June 2026 format
The current reference profile uses five distinct main numbers from 1–50 and one separate PowerBall from 1–16. A PowerBall may have the same value as a main number because they come from different pools. Published June 2026 changes list the main-game entry price as R10 per board.
Draw times and reference locking
Drawings are scheduled on Tuesdays and Fridays at approximately 21:00 South Africa Standard Time (Africa/Johannesburg, UTC+02:00). South Africa does not observe daylight saving time. This website closes reference picks at 20:30 SAST, then opens the next scheduled drawing.

The guide describes the current published profile. Result pages display the amounts actually stored for that specific drawing, including rand cents, and do not apply today’s payouts to old results. Current jackpot odds are 1 in 33,900,160 for 5/50 + 1/16.

Each era has its own statistical window. Numbers above the selected era’s range and incomplete results are excluded, not reinterpreted as another game. If the archive has no completed results for an era, that view remains empty.
Main PowerBall versus the separate add-on draw
The main PowerBall results here are kept separate from the historical PowerBall Plus archive. Published June 2026 changes describe a rebranded PowerBall XTRA add-on with separate drawing and jackpot rules. Neither Plus/XTRA outcomes nor USA Power Play multipliers are mixed into the main-game comparisons here.
Research, not ticket purchases
Number Desk creates reference lines. Member picks save 1–5 lines once per drawing, without changing account balances or buying official tickets. Winning-row highlights indicate a match to the stored result, not a confirmed paid prize.
