Lottery officials also announced additional cash prizes from the drawing. Thirteen players matched four of five numbers plus the Bullseye and XTRA, winning $1,000 each. Another 52 players matched four of five numbers and the Bullseye, winning $500 apiece, and five more matched four of five numbers plus the XTRA to also secure $500 each.

Following the jackpot win, the Jersey Cash 5 top prize has reset to its starting amount of $150,000.
