Lotto: 13 players win nearly $20k each in Second Division – where were tickets sold?
Thirteen players are more than $19,000 richer after winning last night's Second Division Lotto Draw.
The winning Powerball Second Division tickets were sold at Four Square Te Puke and Four Square Raetihi.
Lotto said two players each won $500,000 in last night's First Division draw, with the winning tickets purchased from Whitcoulls Taupō and Pak'nSave Upper Hutt.
Powerball will roll over to Wednesday, climbing to $6 million. Strike four also rolls over to Wednesday with $1m up for grabs.
Time running out for mystery winner
The mystery winner of a $200,000 Lotto prize has until the end of August to claim their money before the ticket expires and is no longer available.
Last month, Lotto put out a final call for the owner of a ticket purchased at Coastlands Lotto in Paraparaumu on Kāpiti Coast nearly a year ago to come forward.
The draw was held on August 31, 2024 and expires 12 months from that date, giving the winner until the end of August this year to claim the money.
'We're still hopeful that the player will come forward and we can reunite them with their prize in time, but the ticket expiry date is looming,' Lotto's Will Hine said.
Hine said the ticket, a Triple Dip, was purchased during a Father's Day promotion and could have been given away as a gift.
'Maybe that rings a bell for someone who got given a ticket, gave away a ticket or even just bought themselves a Triple Dip about that time last year.'
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.

Lotto Powerball: Are you $5 million richer?
The mystery winner of a $200,000 Lotto prize has just weeks left to claim their money before the ticket expires and is no longer available. Last week, Lotto put out a final call for the owner of a ticket purchased at Coastlands Lotto in Paraparaumu on the Kāpiti Coast nearly a year ago to come forward. The mystery winner of a $200,000 Lotto prize has only six weeks left to claim their money before the ticket expires.

A myriad of organisations concerned about impact
Submissions close this weekend on a bill that seeks to minimise harm from online gambling - but another aspect of the bill has myriad organisations worried about how it could impact their future funding. The Online Casino Gambling Bill would introduce 15 licences for online casinos, require companies to provide a harm prevention strategy, ensure their users are at least 18 years old and adhere to advertising restrictions. But where onshore operators like Lotto, TAB and pokies are required to put a proportion of their proceeds back into the community, the new bill wouldn't require that of new licence holders. And that's got community organisations and sports clubs worried. Susie discusses with Martin Snedden, NZ Cricket Board Chair who's leading the charge on behalf of 50 sporting organisations concerned about the impact the Bill could have on grassroots sport. Also joining the discussion, Claire Beard who's CEO of Asthma NZ and says the Bill as it stands would threaten respiratory support programmes her organisation runs in disadvantaged communities.
