MagicLotto is an independent South African technology, administration and lottery ticket-messenger service operated by Reboot Internet Technology CC. MagicLotto has served customers since 2007.
MagicLotto does not run the official lottery draws. For supported lottery products, you submit your entry or ticket-procurement instruction and MagicLotto arranges the applicable ticket purchase or entry process on your behalf, subject to the relevant lottery rules and availability.
Choose the lottery you want to play, select the required main numbers and any required extra number, or use Quick Pick to generate a valid random selection. Review your entry and price before you submit it.
With a Full Ticket, you are buying the entire underlying lottery ticket and receive 100% of any winnings attributable to that ticket, subject to official deductions, tax or bank charges where applicable.
Where available, a MagicLotto Mini Ticket gives you a 10% share in a real qualifying lottery ticket. You pay 10% of the applicable ticket price and receive 10% of any winnings attributable to that share.
Mini Tickets are separate from Full Tickets and are available only on selected lotteries.
Quick Pick automatically creates a valid random number selection for the lottery you are playing. It is a convenience tool only and does not improve or reduce the mathematical odds of the draw.
Each lottery has its own cut-off time. The game page shows the current countdown or a Closed status. Once the cut-off is reached, the server blocks new purchases even if an older page, bookmark or direct URL is used.
MagicLotto checks saved Lucky Numbers against the current rules of the selected lottery. If a saved set contains a number that is no longer valid, it cannot be played until the set is updated or deleted.
The current operational deposit methods are Card via PayGate, EFT and 4ALL Voucher. Availability can depend on your country, account status and the payment methods currently enabled on the Deposit page.

South Africa, Namibia and many other countries. We would be delighted to welcome you to MagicLotto.
Your invitation starts on our registration page: if your country appears in the country list, you can register and play with us. Simply select your country when creating your account, and let us assist you from there.
Available lotteries and payment options may vary by country. Local laws and our Terms of Use apply.
You can only win a lottery prize if you actually entered that lottery. MagicLotto will never ask for your password or one-time PIN (OTP), and you should be very suspicious of anyone demanding an upfront “release”, “clearance”, “processing” or “tax” payment to unlock a supposed prize.
Always verify your entry and result inside your MagicLotto account or contact MagicLotto Support directly.
