When does the Jackpot Kick-off start and end in 2026 on Lucky Fish?

Short Answer: The Jackpot Kick-off on Lucky Fish runs from Friday 02 January 2026 to Sunday 27 December 2026. The promotion operates every weekend during this period, starting at Friday 00:00 and ending at Sunday 21:00.

This gives you 52 consecutive weekends to place qualifying bets and earn entries into the progressive jackpot.

1. The Full 2026 Campaign

The campaign spans almost the entire year, with Weekend 1 starting on 2 January 2026 and Weekend 52 ending on 27 December 2026. During each weekend, the Jackpot display will continuously show the current jackpot amount. The jackpot closes when the countdown timer ends each Sunday at 21:00, and the full pool is paid out in cash to the winning account.

2. Qualifying Bets and Jackpot Payouts

To participate, you must place a minimum bet of R10 on any bet that includes a Soccer leg. Every additional R10 bet including a Soccer leg gives you another entry, increasing your chances. If no winner is confirmed by the time the jackpot closes, the promotion continues into the next weekend, but the jackpot is guaranteed to be paid out at the end of the designated period.
