Scratch cards vary a lot in different ways. One way they tend to differ from other scratchcards is in price. You’ll see some online scratch cards available for around 50p at the lowest end of the scale. But another scratchcard might cost just 10p a go. It varies depending on the scratch games and the scratch cards sites they’re on. If you focus on cheaper scratch cards you’ll certainly make your scratch card budget last longer. But the prizes won’t be as big either. A rule of thumb for all online scratch cards is that the bigger the stake you put in, the bigger any potential prize will be when you scratch off a winning combination! There’s no guarantee you’ll win of course, but it’s worth bearing it in mind before you start playing any particular scratch games. You can still enjoy great prizes if you bet the lowest amount available for any specific card.

Expensive scratch cards can unlock higher prizes

You won’t win anything if you’re playing free scratch cards. But if you’re playing for real money you’ll be wise to figure out how much you want to bet on the cards. If you’ve bet more on a scratch card and you’ve got a winning combination, you’ll get a bigger prize because of it!
