Ticket costs
The cost of a New York Cash4Life ticket is typically $2 per play. With each play, you select five numbers from a field of 1 through 60, as well as a Cash Ball number from a separate field of 1 through 4. Matching all five main numbers plus the Cash Ball wins the top prize, while there are also prizes for matching fewer numbers or for different combinations. However, prices and rules may have changed, so it’s a good idea to verify the current information from an official source like the New York Lottery website or authorized retailers.
Zero prize amounts
In the New York Cash4Life game, if you don’t match any numbers (zero numbers), there is no prize awarded for that specific outcome. The game’s prize structure typically rewards players for matching at least one number, with higher prizes for matching more numbers and the Cash Ball, up to the top prize for matching all five main numbers plus the Cash Ball. However, it’s always a good idea to double-check the latest information from the New York Lottery website or authorized retailers for the most accurate details.
Multipliers
In the New York Cash4Life game, there are no multipliers available. The prize amounts for matching numbers are fixed and do not change based on any multiplier feature. Each play costs $2, and the prizes are determined by the number of matches and whether the Cash Ball is matched. While some other lottery games offer multipliers to increase winnings, Cash4Life does not include this feature.
Bonus/extra draws
As of my last update, the New York Cash4Life game does not offer bonus or extra draws as part of its standard gameplay. Each draw is independent, and players have the opportunity to participate in the regular drawings for a chance to win prizes based on the numbers they select and how they play them. However, it’s always a good idea to check the latest information from the New York Lottery website or authorized retailers for any updates or special promotions.
