The world number 35, who turned professional in 2019, had never previously made a single maximum break in his career.
Monday’s win has earned him a place in the final round of qualifiers.
Page reached the tournament proper for the first time in 2022 and caused an upset by beating former finallist Barry Hawkins 10-7 in round one.
He also qualified for the final tournament last year, but was well beaten 10-1 in the opening round by Ronnie O’Sullivan.
Page told 5 Live that the money would help as he has a three-month-old son and has recently bought a house.
But he said there would not be too much celebration, with a steak dinner on Monday night before practice on Tuesday.
Page will meet England’s world number 30 Joe O’Connor in the final qualifying round for a place in round one at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield.
While Page progressed, there were upsets elsewhere in qualifying as 2015 winner Stuart Bingham and former UK champion Stephen Maguire both lost.
