A New Jersey lottery player won a $1.8 million Jersey Cash 5 jackpot on Saturday, Nov. 1. It’s the 55th time the lottery game has been won in 2025.
The New Jersey Lottery announced that a ticket sold online through Jackpocket matched the five numbers to win the $1,822,957 prize. The retailer will receive a $2,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
The Jersey Cash 5 winning numbers for Nov 1 were: 04, 20, 28, 35 and 40. The XTRA was 02 and Bullseye was 40.
In addition to the jackpot, 50 players matched four out of five balls and the Bullseye to win $500 in Saturday’s drawing.
It is the second jackpot to be won in the state through the online courier Jackpocket in a week. On Oct. 25, the $22 million Pick-6 jackpot was won through the third-party app.
The $22 million prize was the largest won in New Jersey through a lottery courier.
New Jersey was the first state to license lottery couriers following a 2016 law and Jackpocket was the first one.
“Jackpocket has been a great partner with the New Jersey Lottery and we are excited for the second largest win of the year from a ticket ordered using Jackpocket,” said Lottery Executive Director James Carey in a release after the Pick-6 win. “Customers have enjoyed using their services.”
“Jackpocket’s mission is to make the lottery more accessible and responsible,” said Pete Sullivan, founder of Jackpocket and SVP of Lottery at DraftKings. “We’re proud to have been the first registered lottery courier service in New Jersey, a state leading the way in innovation. Of the more than $1 billion in lottery prizes won by customers across the nation from ordering tickets using Jackpocket, millions have been claimed right here in New Jersey, a testament to the state’s enthusiasm and our shared success.”
The New Jersey Lottery estimates the next Jersey Cash 5 jackpot at $150,000 for the Nov. 2 drawing.
Jersey Cash 5 is a daily lottery draw game from the New Jersey Lottery. Players pick five numbers between 1 and 45 and can add the Xtra for a chance to increase non-jackpot prizes by up to five times. The Bullseye gives players another chance to win.
