If the jackpot is not won then it rolls over to the next draw and this keeps happening until either there is a winner or the jackpot reaches $50 million. When this limit is reached, a 'Must Be Won' draw is held and, if no player matches the six main numbers and the Powerball, the jackpot is rolled down and shared among winners in the next prize division. Find out more on the Must Be Won Draws page.

The first time the jackpot reached $50 million was on 29th February 2020, setting a new record for the largest prize in NZ Powerball. The ‘Must Be Won’ jackpot was shared between two players from Auckland. For more information about winners, visit the New Zealand Powerball Winners page.

There are also seven Lotto prize divisions in NZ, for those players who do not add the Powerball option. For example, if you play Lotto and match all six numbers, you win Lotto Division 1. Lotto and Powerball winnings are then added together if you play both games.
