A Step-by-Step Guide to Playing Lotto on the Capitec App

Getting started is quick and easy. I remember the first time I tried it; I was a bit nervous I'd press the wrong button, but the app is really straightforward.

1. Open the App: Tap on the Capitec app on your phone and sign in using your PIN or fingerprint.

2. Go to Transact: Once you're in, look for the "Transact" button at the bottom of the screen and tap on it.

3. Find "Play LOTTO": You'll see a list of transaction options. Scroll until you find "Play LOTTO" and select it.

4. Choose Your Game: You can play LOTTO, PowerBall, or DAILY LOTTO. Tap on the one you want to play.

5. Select Your Numbers: Now for the fun part! You can either choose your own lucky numbers or use the "Quick Pick" option to have the app select random numbers for you. You can play a single draw or even multiple draws.

6. Confirm and Pay: Review your numbers and the cost of the ticket. If you're happy, tap "Buy Now" to confirm. The money will be taken directly from your Capitec account.

And that's it! You've successfully bought your lotto ticket. You'll get an SMS confirming your purchase and your numbers. I once won a small amount, around R50, and the best part was that the winnings were paid directly back into my Capitec account a few days later. No fuss at all.

Playing the lotto should always be fun, so remember to play responsibly and only spend what you can afford.
