Grand Prizes Remaining

Explore the biggest prizes still available on scratch-off tickets and see which games have top prizes remaining.

Scratch-Off Remaining Prizes By State

A scratch-off ticket stays on sale at the same price whether its grand prize is still available or was claimed months ago. Nothing on the ticket tells you which. Scratch Ticket Genie tracks how many grand prizes each ticket still has listed as available, using data taken from official state lottery sources. Free to view, no account needed.

What Remaining Prizes Means

When a scratch-off ticket is released, the state lottery publishes how many prizes exist at each level, including how many grand prizes the ticket contains. As tickets sell and prizes are claimed, those counts fall.

Remaining prizes are what the state lottery currently reports as still unclaimed. The figure changes continually, which is why a count from a few weeks ago tells you very little about today.

    Prize structures are set by each state lottery separately. A ticket sold in one state has no connection to a similarly named ticket in another, which is why the data is organized state by state.

    What You Can See For Each Ticket

    For every ticket listed, the site shows:

    Ticket Name

    The name the state lottery uses, with a link back to the official source.

    Grand Prize Amount

    The value of the highest prize in that ticket's prize structure.

    Initial Top Prizes

    How many top prizes the ticket had when it was released.

    Current Top Prizes

    How many are still listed as unclaimed.

    Percentage Remaining

    What share of the original top prizes is still available, which makes tickets easier to compare against each other regardless of how many they started with.

    Ticket Cost

    The listed price of the ticket.

    Why The Numbers Change

    Two Things Move These Counts.

    Prizes Get Claimed

    Every claimed grand prize reduces the count for that ticket. The percentage remaining falls with it.

    Tickets Close

    State lotteries end tickets and pull them from sale, at which point they drop off the list entirely.

    What Remaining Prizes Does Not Tell You

    A high percentage of top prizes remaining describes what is left in the prize pool. It does not mean a ticket is more likely to win.

    Scratch-off outcomes are determined when the tickets are printed. A ticket with all its top prizes intact has the same fixed outcome it had before that figure was published, and the odds always favor the lottery.

    A ticket with no top prizes left still has its lower prize tiers, and remains on sale at the same price either way. That is the situation this data is most useful for spotting.
