No ticket matched all six numbers in the Mega-Sena lottery draw held on Saturday, May 30 [2].
The lack of a jackpot winner means the prize pool will continue to grow, increasing the stakes for future participants in one of Brazil's most popular lotteries.
Caixa Econômica Federal organized the draw in São Paulo [1]. The winning numbers for contest 3.013 were 02, 14, 21, 22, 34, and 44 [5]. While the top prize remained unclaimed [2], 46 tickets matched five of the six numbers [3]. Each of those 46 winners will receive R$ 33,000 [4].
Reports on the total prize amount vary across news outlets. O Globo said the prize was R$ 10,398,071.90 [5], while Campo Grande News cited an estimated R$ 10.3 million [7]. However, G1 said the prize has now accumulated to R$ 16 million [6].
The Mega-Sena is a bi-weekly event designed to award its prize pool to players who correctly predict the number sequence [2]. Because no single player hit the six-number combination this Saturday, the funds roll over to the next scheduled drawing.

The accumulation of the jackpot to a reported R$ 16 million typically leads to a surge in ticket sales for the subsequent draw. This rollover mechanism is a core feature of the Mega-Sena, driving higher public engagement as the potential payout increases.
