Price guide · OLG
Ontario scratch tickets, by price.
How OLG’s scratch tickets on sale now differ by price, from the agency’s published data. This compares how the games are built and how much of their prize money is left. It doesn’t compare, and doesn’t change, the chance of any ticket winning.
Does a $20 ticket leave more than four $5 tickets?
- OLG prints its $20 tickets on sale to pay out a median 69.94% of sales as prizes, and its $5 tickets 66.92% (the payout rate on each game’s product page). That is how the games are designed across all their tickets, not what any one ticket returns.
- The median $20 ticket on sale has 29.2% of its printed prize money still unclaimed; the median $5 ticket, 56.5%.

About $20, three ways
The same money, spent three ways. Each describes what the agency publishes about the game; none of it is the chance of winning, which Lottizen doesn’t compare.

- What each prize tier paid per winning ticket in the Fri, Oct 23, 2026 draw (published breakdown); the shared tiers change every draw: 6/7+B $97,470 · 6/7 $6,207 · 5/7+B $956 · 5/7 $96 · 4/7+B $48 · 4/7 $20 · 3/7+B $20 · 3/7 $6. Nobody matched 7/7 in that draw.
- A draw game has no “prize money left”: every draw starts a new prize pool, so the scratch-ticket measures above don’t apply to it.
