Odds of Winning Scratch Instant Its Lottery
The odds of winning in the table above are based on the total number of tickets which are generally printed for each ticket type. However as the total number of tickets printed for each ticket type may vary from time to time, in those cases the odds of winning prizes may vary from those presented in the table above.
Therefore Instant Scratch-Its tickets are a unique form of instant lottery where the prizes are all determined at the time of printing. NSW Lotteries prints all Instant Scratch-Its games at a secure facility using some of the most advanced and secure printing processes in the world. When games leave the production line they are already sealed with latex and neither NSW Lotteries, the printers nor Retailers are able to determine which tickets are winners. Tickets for a particular game are randomly distributed to the NSW Lotteries retail network of around 1,600 Outlets.
Because of the secure nature of the game and the random distribution of tickets, there is no way of knowing exactly what prizes are still available to be won. In addition, winning tickets may have been purchased but not yet claimed.
