About

Who we are

ScratchieHub shows which scratch-off games still have their top prizes and what a ticket is worth on average right now, state by state.

We are independent. ScratchieHub is not part of any state lottery, and no lottery has endorsed, approved, or paid for it. We do not sell tickets, take bets, or buy tickets for anyone, and we do not get paid when you buy a ticket.

Where the numbers come from. Every number comes from information the state lottery publishes itself: game numbers, prices, odds, prize amounts, and how many prizes are left. We collect it automatically, usually once a day, and show when each state was last updated. Where a lottery does not let automated tools read its site, we ask it for the data or request it as a public record, or we leave that state out. We never copy a lottery's artwork, logos, or text.

What the numbers mean. Expected value is the average amount a ticket pays back for each dollar spent, based on the prizes still left. Every game is designed to pay back less than it costs on average, so every game loses money over time. Our numbers show which games lose less and which still have top prizes. They cannot tell you whether a particular ticket will win.

The lottery has the final word. Prizes can be claimed between our updates, and lotteries sometimes correct their own figures. Before you buy, check the game on the official lottery site. We link to it on every game page.

Names and images. State lottery names and game names belong to the lotteries and their licensors. We use them only so you know which game we mean. The ticket images on this site are our own illustrations, not pictures of real tickets.
