When we say big, we mean it. Not only did we give away a share of R1 Million 

 in our Summer of Millions competition but we also had 120 Golden Tickets recipients get a once-in-a-lifetime shot at the R1 Million cash prize in our Grand Finale.

The grand finale consisted of four elimination rounds and Melissa Hayes’ luck struck making her a millionaire!

Here’s an inside scoop:

How does it feel to be Gauteng’s NEWEST millionaire?


I flew all the way from Cape Town to Johannesburg and entered both competitions—by pure luck, I made it to 947! I'm absolutely over the moon about this big win!



Absolutely! I'm very superstitious and I kept seeing signs that this was meant to happen. I chose the 11th ScratchCard in round 3, inspired by my favourite scripture and here we are now.


Tell us about the final, nail-biting moment!


When it came down to the final round, the other two contestants got to pick their cakes first and I was left with the last one. In my heart, I knew that the last cake was meant for me—and I was right! Seeing that burst of gold confetti after cutting it open was an unforgettable moment. Flying to Joburg from Cape Town turned out to be the best decision ever.


How do you plan on spending your winnings


I plan to use the money to make life easier for my family in every way I can.


Was this your first LottoStar competition?


Yes, this was the first radio competition I entered.


Ever hit the jackpot before with LottoStar?


Yes, about 2 years ago, I won R20,000 on Mystic Fortune Deluxe.


Any parting words for those hoping to strike it big?


If you ever get selected, don't overthink the logistics—just go for it!

Remember, with LottoStar, the thrill is never-ending. Keep an eye out for our next big competition and in the meantime, place your bets—you could win instant payouts of up to R75 Million. Will you be our next big winner?

Dylan De Bergh, became the last human standing after going through four elimination stages to become Western Cape’s newest millionaire. This is what he/she had to say:


How does it feel to be Western Cape’s NEWEST Millionaire?


It feels like a dream come true—so unreal, yet incredibly exciting to say that I’m officially a millionaire!



No, I never even thought I’d make it to the final round. But here I am and it’s surreal to have made it this far!


What was going through your mind during the last round?


I just thought I’ve made it this far in the competition, so whatever’s meant to happen will happen. When I saw gold in the cake, I immediately knew that I have just won the R1 Million grand prize.



Firstly, I want to pay off my debts, set a date to get married, finally spoil my kids and secure a better life for them.


Was this the first time entering a LottoStar competition?

Have you ever won anything before with LottoStar?


This was my first win with LottoStar and my winning streak has just begun. Fingers crossed!


My favourite LottoStar game is Balloon Race.



Anything is possible! At 26, I never imagined winning my first Million Rand. I encourage everyone to try their luck with LottoStar – I’m so grateful I did. Thank you, LottoStar, for making me the Western Cape’s newest millionaire!

 proudly sponsored by LottoStar, celebrates Herman Bosman, who took on the challenge and walked away with R250,000!

Adapted from the popular quiz show, “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?”, contestants tackle a series of questions to secure the R1 Million cash prize. However, the road to riches is anything but easy.

Here's the low-down on the show:

 Six eager participants join each round, but only one gets the chance to answer each question. The tension builds as the clock ticks.

There are 4 possible answers to a question. Contestants need to answer the correct option.

Once a player is ready to commit, they declare, “This is my final answer.” This moment is pivotal—there’s no turning back.

 The correct answer means that they have won a cash prize and the goal is to reach the R1 Million goal.

The amount of cash offered increases and so does the difficulty of the question.

Not every question comes with an easy answer. If a player is unsure or unwilling to risk it all, they can choose to walk away with the money they’ve accumulated. In a final twist, the host will ask what their answer had been, revealing if they would have chosen correctly.

A huge congratulations to Herman Bosman on winning R250,000.

, this devastating event turned his world upside down when doctors delivered the heartbreaking new that due to the severity of his injuries, he would never walk again.

A bullet had missed his heart by just 1mm causing severe damage to his lung and spinal cord leaving him paralyzed from the chest down and wheelchair bound.

Darren underwent extensive medical procedures, which included having his back and head held together with staples and the removal of a third of his lung due to the bullet fragments that caused it to collapse.

This harrowing experience forced Darren, once a physically fit rugby player, kickboxer, and gym enthusiast, into rehabilitation, where he had to relearn even the most basic tasks—like sitting up.

However, Darren’s resilience and unwavering faith helped him defy the odds, earning him the title of the world’s 9th Fittest Adaptive Seated Without Hip Athlete—an incredible achievement, considering he only started 

As part of our charity initiative, LottoStar proudly contributed R90,000 to support Darren’s journey to the CrossFit Games in Texas, this September.

With 23 October marking exactly 17 years since the attack, Darren now has every reason to look back and smile. What once seemed like the end became the beginning of an incredible journey. Today, he stands as a symbol of perseverance, inspiring others to rise above adversity. Through unwavering determination, he has transformed tragedy into triumph, proving that no setback is insurmountable.

Darren is not just a survivor—he’s a force to be reckoned with, inspiring countless people with his story of strength, faith and resilience.

LottoStar sponsored Darren Thomas who took 9th place at the Fittest Adaptive Seated Without Hip Athlete.

How does it feel to be SA’s NEWEST Millionaire?


I am quite excited about my BIG win as it came out of nowhere. I still cannot believe it.

What was your reaction when you saw the win?


It all happened so fast! I was on a work call and I placed a bet in the background. It started with a small R70 win. I decided to activate the auto-bet feature on the game while I focused on my work. And then, out of nowhere—BOOM! My screen lit up with R1.8 Million!

Did you have a feeling that you’d win? 

Not at all! I had no idea this was coming. I wasn’t expecting anything major, especially since I was casually betting while multitasking. I’ve always enjoyed the thrill, but this completely blindsided me—in the best possible way!


Not yet! I’ve been keeping this incredible secret to myself, but I intend on telling my sister first.


I’m not quite sure yet. I want to enjoy the moment and let it sink in first before making any big plans.




Daily Ka-Ching is definitely at the top of my list! I love the rush and the possibility that you could win big at any moment. I’m also a huge fan of the ScratchCard games, especially Golf GTI and Toyota Hilux.




I just want to say a huge thank you to LottoStar! This win is truly going to change my life.
