Hollywoodbets has confirmed the Jackpot Race prize pool for July 2026 will hold steady at R3.6 million across the month's twelve race windows. The schedule remains Wednesday and Friday at R250,000 each, Saturday at R400,000, three windows a week, all running from 20:30 to 22:30 SAST.

That works out to 195 winners on the R250,000 nights and 275 winners on the Saturday R400,000 race. Minimum stake to qualify is R2 per spin on any Habanero title. The full schedule and rules sit on our Jackpot Race page, which updates with the live countdown.

Quick note on competition

The Jackpot Race remains the only multi-operator-shaped promotion in SA where the prizes are paid by the operator rather than distributed across studios. Lucky Fish has not announced a competing race. Betway and 10Bet run their own daily slot promotions but the prize structure is much smaller.
