Singapore’s Friday night Toto draw has delivered a life-changing windfall after a single ticket holder walked away with more than S$6 million in prize money.
The Group 1 jackpot, which had snowballed in recent rounds, was finally struck in the Feb. 13 draw. According to operator Singapore Pools, just one winning ticket matched all six numbers to clinch the top prize.
The winning entry was a QuickPick Ordinary ticket priced at just S$1. It was purchased at the NTUC FairPrice outlet located at Nex, one of the busiest suburban malls in the north-east region.
Single Ticket Bags S$6.18 Million Windfall
The total payout for the Group 1 cascade draw came up to S$6,188,268, handing the lucky punter an instant multimillion-dollar fortune. With cascade draws typically triggered after consecutive rollovers, anticipation had been building among regular Toto players hoping to secure the top prize.
The winning numbers drawn were 10, 15, 25, 43, 45 and 49, with the additional number being 4. Only one ticket managed to match the six main numbers, making this a sole-winning-ticket draw.
For Group 2, there were 15 winning shares. Each share received S$86,853, providing a substantial payout for those who matched five numbers plus the additional number. While not quite the multimillion-dollar jackpot, it still represents a significant boost for many households.
Unclaimed Prizes To Go Towards Community Causes
As with all Singapore Pools draws, winners have a fixed window to claim their prizes. Any unclaimed winnings after the stipulated deadline will not simply lapse into the system.
Instead, such funds will be channelled towards donations and grants administered by the Tote Board, supporting community initiatives, social services and charitable causes across Singapore. This ensures that even uncollected prize money ultimately benefits the wider public.
The latest jackpot win once again highlights the enduring popularity of Toto among Singaporeans, especially when snowballing draws push the prize pool past the S$5 million mark. For just S$1, one individual’s routine QuickPick has turned into a financial windfall that could potentially reshape their retirement planning, investment strategy and long-term wealth management.
With excitement already building for the next draw, hopeful participants will be checking their numbers closely — perhaps wondering if the next multimillion-dollar ticket could be theirs.
