The multimillion-dollar win was made up of $1 million from Lotto First Division and $23 million for Powerball, and the winning ticket was sold at Bell Block Supermarket in New Plymouth.
They are the 17th person made a multi-millionaire from Lotto this year.
The mouth-watering sum was up for grabs in the Super Saturday Lotto Powerball draw.
The winning numbers were: 5, 31, 38, 3, 27, and 29. The Bonus Ball was 21, and the Power Ball was 5.
There was no Strike Four winner, so that $300,000 jackpot will now move to Wednesday night.
