South Carolina Palmetto Cash 5 Results
Palmetto Cash 5 is South Carolina's flagship in-state jackpot game, offering a **rolling jackpot** that starts at $100,000 and grows by a minimum of $10,000 every day until someone wins. Drawings are held seven nights a week, making it one of the most frequently drawn jackpot games in the state. What makes Palmetto Cash 5 unique is its **built-in multiplier system**: every ticket automatically includes a random multiplier (2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x) that is applied to all non-jackpot prizes at no additional cost. This means a $300 Match 4 prize could become $3,000 with a 10x multiplier, all for the base $2 ticket price. The game replaced its former optional Power-Up add-on with these built-in multipliers, and the number field was expanded from 1-38 to 1-42 with the ticket price increasing from $1 to $2.
