No-one won Lotto's $34 million Powerball prize on Wednesday night, which means $40 million must be given away on Saturday night.
The new Powerball jackpot is the largest ever offered in the country.
The largest prize in tonight's draw was $1,000,000, which was split between two winners of Lotto first division, while two second-division Powerball winners claimed $7963 each.
New Zealand's largest-ever individual Lotto prize winner was a Big Wednesday first division prize worth $36.9 million in 2009, while the biggest Powerball win was $33 million in 2013.
If nobody wins the Powerball first division on Saturday, the huge $40 million prize will be split among the winners of the next highest division.
