North Carolina scratch-off FAQ

What is the best scratch-off ticket in North Carolina right now?

As of our latest update, the North Carolina scratch-off with the highest expected return is 100X The Cash, a $20 ticket returning about $0.96 per $1. Rankings change daily as prizes are claimed, so the table above always shows the current order.

How are North Carolina scratch-off odds and returns calculated?

We take the official remaining-prize data published by the NC Education Lottery and divide the value of all unclaimed prizes by the estimated number of tickets remaining. That gives each game's expected return per dollar spent.

How often is the North Carolina scratch-off data updated?

Every day. We refresh North Carolina prize data daily from the official NC Education Lottery source, so the rankings reflect prizes claimed since the game launched.

Do better odds mean I will make money on North Carolina scratch-offs?

No. Like all lottery games, North Carolina scratch-offs carry a negative expected return on average — a higher-ranked ticket simply loses you less, not nothing. Play for fun, not for income.
