Players from the Northern Territory and Western Australia have shared tonight’s $50 million Powerball jackpot, prompting lottery officials to encourage people to check their tickets.
There were two division one winning entries nationally in Powerball draw 1534 on 9 October 2025. Each division one winning entry pocketed $25 million, but the ticketholders may not yet know of their good fortune.
The winning Northern Territory entry was sold at The Lucky Charm Alice Springs, Shop 3-5 Coles Complex, 45 Railway Terrace, Alice Springs.
The prize is believed to be the biggest individual lottery win to land in the Northern Territory.
If the Alice Springs winner had been part of The Lott Members Club and registered their ticket to a player card or online account, they would have already been alerted to their good fortune.
Instead, officials from The Lott are eagerly waiting for the Northern Territory ticketholder to check their ticket and come forward to claim their prize.
Lotterywest, which looks after Western Australia, will be keen to speak to its Powerball winner.
In addition to the two $25 million division one winners, there were 1,531,608 winners across divisions two to nine in tonight's Powerball draw who collectively took home more than $30.57 million. This includes seven division two winners who each took home $121,536.10.
The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart said he couldn’t wait for Australia’s newest multi-millionaires to discover the life-changing news.
“Two Aussies became multi-millionaires tonight, but possibly don’t know it yet! Just imagine how $25 million might change your life and the lives of your nearest and dearest,” he said.
“There are 25 million reasons why players who had an entry in this week’s Powerball draw should check their tickets.
“While our friends at Lotterywest will be keen to speak to the Western Australian winner, we are equally eager to unite the Alice Springs winner with their prize.
“If you discover you’re holding the division one winning Northern Territory entry, hold on tight to that ticket and phone 131 868 as soon as possible so that we can start the prize claim process!”
